Martial law in Russia was introduced on 20 October 2022 during the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine and a month after the announcement of mobilization. President Vladimir Putin issued two decrees: "On the introduction of martial law in the territories of the DPR, LPR, Zaporozhye and Kherson Oblasts" and "On measures taken in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation in connection with Decree of the President of the Russian Federation dated October 19, 2022 No. 756".

Martial law has been introduced in full on the territories of

Ukraine annexed by Russia (Donetsk People's Republic, Luhansk People's Republic, Kherson Oblast, Zaporizhzhia Oblast). In the regions bordering Ukraine - Bryansk, Kursk, Belgorod, Voronezh, Rostov Oblasts, Krasnodar Krai, as well as in the annexed Crimea and Sevastopol, a "medium level of response" was introduced, in other regions of the Central and the Southern Federal Districts - "level of high readiness", and in other subjects of the Russian Federation - "level of basic readiness".[1][2]

Officials said after the decrees were issued that no measures were planned to restrict life and freedom of movement.

The martial law regime was introduced for the first time in the

Second World War.[4]
