Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has warned that it was “inevitable” that “war” would come to Russia after authorities there were forced to temporarily close a busy Moscow airport following an overnight drone attack on the capital.

How is it related? The conscription law is an entirely different thing, it does not affect the amount of people eligible to serve
Look above, the post that we are discussing right now is about Zelensky threating to take war to the Russian soil
How is the ability to field troops related to the ability to field troops? Really? Having X million people eligible to serve doesn’t matter if none of them are willing to go die in another country (remember your comment about a mutiny?); and right now Russia is having trouble recruiting for Putin’s little adventure.
“Take the war to Russian soil” doesn’t mean conquer Moscow. For fuck’s sake, that has never been Zelenzky’s goal and you know it.
Because it’s not about the ability to field troops. They’ve increased the age of conscription to 30 years, but you don’t send conscripts to war, you send ones who completed the year-long service, and the age limit for those was always 50 years. We won’t see any new conscripts under this law for at least 2 years. But there won’t be that much of them really, because this change was designed to catch those who are otherwise healthy but avoided service altogether by getting a PhD.
Then what *does *it mean? Why would you go to Russia if not for returning the attack? Why would you fly drones all the way to Moscow?
Sure sounds like it’s about getting troops to the field.
It means exactly what this was, drone attacks on strategic targets to disrupt the Russian war machine. Only one side in this war is trying to invade a neighboring country. If you can’t even admit that, I really question your motivation here.
