Quote: “In a number of settlements in Kherson Oblast, facts of forcible detention of men who previously refused Ukrainian citizenship in favour of Russian citizenship have been reported.

After the detention, during the first introductory conversation, the occupiers demand from such citizens an illegal remuneration for postponing mobilisation. Persons who refuse to pay a bribe or do not have the required amount of funds are sent by the occupiers to field camps to undergo an accelerated course of general military training. After that, the people are sent to the settlements bordering the contact line.”



Background: According to the National Resistance Center, collaborators are fleeing en masse to the Russian Federation from the temporarily captured territories of Zaporizhzhia and Kherson oblasts.
