Russians conduct recruitment raids in TOT of Kherson region - National Resistance Centre
This was reported by the National Resistance Centre, Ukrinform reports.
"In the temporarily occupied territories (TOT) of the Kherson region, Russians are actively conducting a recruitment campaign to recruit locals into the ranks of their army," the report says.
It is noted that special detachments travel to villages where they campaign to sign a contract. In particular, they compile lists of those who are theoretically loyal to the occupiers and may agree.
The service, the occupiers promise, will take place in the rear, but this is a deception, because the Kremlin benefits from the death of Ukrainians - regardless of the side they are fighting for.
The National Resistance Centre notes that the recruitment of residents of the occupied territories into the occupier's army is a violation of international law.
As Ukrinform reported earlier, the Russians have created a "special" fund for seized housing in the TOT of Ukraine.
In the autumn of 2022, the Armed Forces of Ukraine liberated the right-bank part of the Kherson region, including the city of Kherson. Part of the region, located on the left bank of the Dnipro River, is temporarily occupied by Russian troops.
