In Donetsk, the Russians are increasing pressure on citizens and are looking for people with Ukrainian passports

In the temporarily occupied Donetsk, the Russians intensified the so-called “counter-subversive measures”. The reason was today’s explosions and damage to the “Donbas Palace” hotel.

This was reported by the Center of National Resistance.

“The Russians are using the explosion in the Donbas Palace hotel to increase pressure on Ukrainians in the temporarily occupied Donetsk.” The Russians are allegedly looking for informants and have increased the number of roadblocks in the city and increased patrols. Special attention is paid to holders of Ukrainian passports who refused to receive Russian citizenship,” the Center of National Resistance noted.

The Center of National Resistance emphasizes that the main goal of the occupiers is not to find those responsible for the explosions. This is another reason for repression and forced passporting of the population.

On January 1, a few minutes after the beginning of 2024, powerful explosions were recorded in the temporarily occupied Donetsk. It is known about a number of hits and damage to infrastructure facilities.
