Quote: "In the temporarily occupied part of Kherson Oblast, cases of local collaborators evicting Ukrainians from their homes have been recorded again. Under various pretexts: evacuation due to bombardments, threats of natural disaster, or simply threatening them with mobilisation or prison."

Details: The NRC notes that local accomplices of the occupation authorities are resettling Russian soldiers in vacated apartments or houses.

Quote: "By the way, this is another scheme to encourage people to join the ranks of the invader's army - promises to solve housing issues at the expense of the occupied territories and property of the civilian population."

Details: The NRC adds that, in addition to the resettlement operation, there is an increase in checkpoints at the entrances to the settlements of occupied Kherson Oblast.

Quote: "There are cases when the enemy closes the entrance to a particular village or city. This is done to hide their crimes and prevent people from returning to their homes."

Details: The NRC reiterates that the Russians have been deporting Ukrainians since the beginning of the full-scale invasion. It is known that, in total, Ukrainians have been resettled to 55 oblasts of the Russian Federation.
