In the occupied territories, local residents are forced to obtain Russian passports.

They are even threatened with eviction from their homes.

This was reported by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

"In the city of Mariupol, teachers of educational institutions are threatened with dismissal if they refuse to exchange their Ukrainian passports for Russian ones, other residents are allowed not to hand in their Ukrainian passports upon receiving a Russian one. In the settlement of Tokarivka, Kherson region, the occupiers warned that if they do not receive Russian passports by October 1, residents are subject to eviction and removal outside the occupied territories," the message reads.

We would like to remind that Moldova can

deprive the citizenship of people

who will participate in the war on the side of Russia against Ukraine after being drafted, because they also have Russian passports.
