Russia continues a policy of population replacement in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine: it creates unbearable conditions for local residents, forces Ukrainians out of their homes, and instead encourages its own citizens to move in. This was reported by the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, writes Glavcom.
According to the intelligence service, in the occupied districts of Kherson region Ukrainians are often illegally deprived of housing and other private property. If before the full-scale invasion about half a million people lived on the left bank of Kherson region, now, by approximate estimates, only 10-20% of the prewar population remains there.
At the same time, Moscow is deliberately bringing Russians into the occupied territories. In particular, they use employment programs such as “Zemsky Teacher,” “Zemsky Feldsher,” “Zemsky Doctor,” “Zemsky Cultural Worker,” and “Zemsky Coach.”
As the GUR notes, the Russian authorities encourage education, medical, and cultural workers to move to the occupied Ukrainian territories with one-time payments, increased salaries, and other benefits. The minimum contract term is five years.
According to the intelligence service, Russian teachers and doctors who agree to work in the temporarily occupied territories are promised 2 million rubles each, and junior medical staff – 1 million rubles each.
GUR reports that during the operation of these programs hundreds of Russian teachers and doctors have already been brought to the occupied territories of Ukraine. They arrived, in particular, from Krasnodar, Khabarovsk, Stavropol and Perm krais; Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug; Volgograd, Rostov, Magadan, Saratov, Kursk, Orenburg, Kirov and Leningrad regions; as well as from a number of Russian republics and cities.
The intelligence service believes that bringing Russian medical staff to the occupied territories is needed primarily to serve Russian military personnel, while education workers are used to impose a Russian identity on Ukrainian children.
Recall that the occupation authorities announced the possibility of evacuating residents of Oleshky in the occupied part of Kherson region to occupied Crimea and Russia’s Rostov region. The corresponding transport has already been prepared, but before departure the road that was previously mined must be cleared and inspected. This was stated by the occupiers’ appointed “governor” of Kherson region, Volodymyr Saldo.
