    I agree, I don't think it's particularly noteworthy except for the fact it was all regional recruitment chiefs at once.

    This suggests either a high level of corruption (I don't think it would be more than other places in the conditions) or a power play between elites in the military.

    Alternatively their allies have told them to do so.
