Aggressor

Russia

is accelerating the process of forced integration of temporarily occupied territories into its legal field.

In particular, with the help of illegally issued documents.

The General Staff of the Armed Forces informs about this in the morning summary.

It is noted that passports, license plates and driver's licenses of the Russian Federation are issued in the region.

"In particular, in Horlivka, Donetsk Oblast, the deadline for issuing Russian-style passports has been reduced from 30 to 10 days," the report says.

We will remind you that

the occupiers are gradually turning the Mariupol sea port into a military base

.

At the end of December, all residents of Mariupol were released from the port (with the exception of individual collaborating specialists) and workers were brought in from Russia.

In the port, work has begun on dividing berths into conventionally civilian and conventionally military ones.
