    RUSSIAN BASE IN ARMENIA COMMENCES PLANNED REPLACEMENT OF MILITARY PERSONNEL

    Planned replacement of the personnel of the Russian Federation (RF)
    Armed Forces' 102nd Military Base, which is stationed in Armenia,
    has begun.

    The first group, which comprises 150 drafted military servicemen,
    arrived in the Armenian capital city Yerevan on Friday, the RF Armed
    Forces' Southern Military Region press service informs.

    The discharged servicemen will be replaced by trained sergeants
    and soldiers. A total of 3,000 military personnel are planned to
    be replaced.

    When selecting the candidates, the preference was given to those
    who wished to carry out their military service outside RF and in
    high mountain conditions. But the applicants' physical and medical
    conditions were considered as well.

    The recruits will be exempt from service and physical load for the
    first fifteen days.

    The replacement and replenishment of the troops will finish at the end
    of November, and prior to start of the new military education period.

    But the number of Military Base personnel will not change over the
    course of this planned replacement.
