In an effort to preserve the families of those who may perish or be injured in armed conflict, the Russian government is taking steps to supply free access to sperm cryobanks for troops called up to fight in Ukraine.

Russian news agency TASS reported that Igor Trunov, president of the Russian Union of Lawyers, stated that the Russian Health Ministry responded to his plan to finance the effort to allow Special Military Operations (SVO) troops the chance to freeze their sperm.
