Zelensky suggests extending martial law and mobilising everyone.

Kiev, 13 Aug. A 90-day extension of the country's present martial law and full mobilisation has been suggested to Parliament by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

According to the Xinhua news agency, two distinct versions on extending martial law and general mobilisation have been presented to Parliament for review.

After the continuing conflict with Russia began on February 24, the Ukrainian Parliament established martial law, which it has since tripled in length.

In Ukraine, the general mobilisation of the populace began on February 24 and was extended for an additional three months in May.

On August 23, the legislation in Ukraine governing martial law and general mobilisation are set to expire.
