The occupiers of the aggressor

Russia 

are trying to create the appearance of active participation of the population in "referendums" in the captured territories of the Luhansk region.

This was announced by the head of the Luhansk Regional Military Administration, Serhii Gaidai.

According to him, Russian mass media are already working on the ground.

In captured Bilovodsk, at one of the enterprises, the boss announced to the workers that attendance was mandatory.

"Those who do not take part in the voting will be automatically dismissed from their jobs, and the lists of those who do not appear will be handed over to the "Ministry of State Security" of the LPR," said the head of the OVA.

Meanwhile, the occupying authorities of Starobilsk forbade the local population to leave the city from September 23 to 27.

"According to available information, the occupiers are creating armed groups to bypass housing and force people to participate in the so-called referendum," Gaidai said.

As reported, leaders of puppet "LDNR" and collaborators in the occupied territories of Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions announced "referendums".

They appointed "war detection" for September 23-27.

During the morning address, Putin said that he 

supports the holding of pseudo-referendums

.

He said that the residents of Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, Donetsk and Luhansk regions allegedly themselves "expressed a desire to determine their own lives."
