We present new observational data for the heavy elements molybdenum (Mo, Z=42) and ruthenium (Ru, Z=44) in F-, G-, and K-stars belonging to different substructures of the Milky Way. The range of metallicity covered is -1.0<[Fe/H]<+0.3. The spectra of Galactic disc stars have a high resolution of 42000 and 75000 and signal-to-noise ratio better than 100. Mo and Ru abundances were derived by comparing the observed and synthetic spectra in the region of Mo I lines at 5506, 5533{AA} for 209 stars and Ru I lines at 4080, 4584, 4757{AA} for 162 stars using the LTE approach. For all the stars, the Mo and Ru abundance determinations are obtained for the first time with an average error of 0.14dex. This is the first extended sample of stellar observations for Mo and Ru in the Milky Way disc, and together with earlier observations in halo stars it is pivotal in providing a complete picture of the evolution of Mo and Ru across cosmic time-scales.
