V\u200cladimir Putin has turned his propaganda machine onto girls as beauty queens and school girls are urged to join his illegal war in Ukraine. <\/p>\n

Most of the country\u2019s propaganda war has been aimed at boys, but now it is switching to girls. In the country's Primorsky region schoolgirls aged 15 and 16 have been inducted in \u201cmilitary-patriotic education\u201d for the first time.<\/p>\n

And in neighbouring Belarus, beauty pageant contestants were recruited to 'inspire' girls and women to join up and fight for Putin-ally Alexander Lukashenko.<\/p>\n

In Primorsky, 75 schoolgirls were trained in military \u201cbasics\u201d including drilling, tactical, fire and physical training, and instruction in radiation, chemical and biological protection.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It was the first \u201cfemale session\u201d at the Avangard centre for military-patriotic education of the youth.<\/p>\n

By the end of the year another 300 girls – and 1,000 boys – will be enrolled on intense five-day courses seen as precursors to military careers or mobilisation.\u200c<\/p>\n

This comes as numbers have swollen in Putin\u2019s Yunarmia, or Young Army, likened to the Hitler Youth, with 1.4 million signed up.<\/p>\n

The organisation has been accused of militarisation of young people in Russia. <\/p>\n

In Primorsky senior education official Oksana Novikova told the girls: \u201cLove of the Motherland, patriotism, and responsibility have always been instilled in young people, regardless of gender.<\/p>\n
