Russia has intensified the transportation of military families to captured Ukrainian settlements. In particular, to Kherson. The occupiers are settling in houses and apartments of Ukrainians who were forced to leave due to a full-scale invasion.
This was announced at a briefing by Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine Hanna Maliar, reports LB.ua.
According to her, the so-called newly arrived migrants arbitrarily inhabit the abandoned houses and apartments of Ukrainian citizens who left, saving their lives with the beginning of a large-scale russian invasion of Ukraine.
The aggressor also continues to forcibly certify and does not abandon plans to hold so-called "referendums".
«Russian invaders are stepping up measures to force certification of the population in the occupied territories. As of June 13, the electronic queue for a russian passport is for two weeks. It is possible that these measures are aimed at artificially increasing the share of the local population, which will be obliged to support the Kremlin's plans to annex the temporarily occupied territories in the event of so-called referendums. Russia is not abandoning its plans to hold so-called referendums. To date, they fail for two reasons. Because the local population is resisting strongly. And the authorized bodies of state power of Ukraine are doing their job», Maliar said,
During an exclusive interview with CNN in Brussels, Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov said that the new weapons would help Ukraine regain russian-occupied territories, including Crimea.
