The other day, Russian punishers announced that from July to September 2022 they recorded “more than 100 thousands departures of Russians to the territory of Ukraine”, of which 32,000 were transport drivers.
Since during this period there was no “passenger pass”, let alone “transport”, on the section of the state border with the Russian Federation controlled by Ukraine, and the aggressor criminally does not attribute illegal entry into the parts of Donetsk and Luhansk regions occupied by Russia to exit to Ukraine and gives them some “separate statistics”, then the FSB statement is not talking about leaving for Ukraine at all, but about traveling between the occupied Crimea and the occupied Kherson and Zaporizhzhya regions, and not so much by Russian citizens as by Crimeans.
Then it “becomes clear”, for example, where the occupiers criminally counted 32,000 cars as a three-month traffic flow through Armyansk and Chongar. At the same time, Russian punishers do not indicate not only the volume of transportation of their “cannon fodder”, but also “reverse statistics”, namely, how many residents of Kherson and Melitopol were taken to Crimea under the pretext of “evacuation”. While in the public domain there is information about the criminal removal of groups of children, or, for example, about the recent forced deportation to the occupied Crimea of 400 “disabled citizens from the Kherson region”.
At the same time, if the occupiers de facto admit their criminal activity in deporting the inhabitants of Kherson, Nova Kakhovka, Berislav and Hola Pristan to the Crimea and through the occupied peninsula to Russia itself, then their propaganda “denies” a similar situation in Melitopol and Energodar. It is also already obvious that the invaders are ready to keep the deported citizens of Ukraine in the Crimea, except for obvious collaborators, only temporarily, before being transported to the Russian Federation, and mainly in Dzhankoy and yevpatoria, and in Sevastopol they do not intend to place them in principle for how long at all.
Thus, it is obvious that the goal of the criminal “evacuation” should be considered systemic ethnic cleansing, which the aggressor decided to start from the areas of the Kherson region adjacent to the Dnieper, considering the indigenous Ukrainian-speaking population living there as the “primary target” of his genocidal practices. At the same time, the occupied Crimea becomes a huge “transit camp” for the deported population, from which the Kremlin criminally expects to make new, Russified slaves “over time”.
