In order to create a "picture" for Russian propagandists, the occupiers set up "media stations" where collaborators voted. 

This was announced by the Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine, Hanna Malyar. 

"In some temporarily occupied settlements of the Zaporizhia region, the Russian occupation administrations resorted to evicting the civilian population from their own homes, who refused to vote in the so-called "referendum" on the accession of the Zaporizhia region's ToT to the Russian Federation," Malyar reported. 

Russia has also launched demonstration "media precincts" and the organization of work on them by Russian political technologists and masses of pre-prepared and paid collaborators.

"It is obvious that it was the defeats at the front that forced the military and political leadership of the Russian Federation to accelerate the holding of referendums in the temporarily occupied territories, including involving their population in the so-called partial mobilization in order to replenish the devastating losses of the Russian occupation army," Malyar explained. 

It will be recalled that the SBU detained the traitor whom the Russians chose to lead the occupied village of Dymer in the Kyiv region.
