The occupiers continue to repress Ukrainians who deny the invaders' authority, reports the National Resistance Center.
"Only since the beginning of the year, over a thousand Ukrainians have been kidnapped in the south and are currently being held in "filtration camps" where they are held without trial just because they are Ukrainians. The occupiers' typical tactics are to destroy everything Ukrainian, install a puppet government, create pseudo-local media, hold "elections" at gunpoint, and kill or intimidate all those who disagree," the statement said.
Earlier, the National Center for National Security and Defence reported that the Russian Federation in the temporarily occupied part of the Kherson Region is trying to attract more collaborators and residents loyal to them to identify citizens with a pro-Ukrainian position.
