Families of "LPR army” soldiers being moved to Russia

Family members of the so-called “2nd army corps,” those mobilized from the temporarily occupied areas of Luhansk region, are being transported to the Russian Federation.

That’s according to the Center of National Resistance, Ukrinform reports.

"Families of the so-called 2nd Army Corps of the ‘LPR’ are being deported to Russia. They are promised benefits and offered accommodation in remote areas of the Russian Federation. In addition, the children of those soldiers receive the right to free education at Russian universities. This, according to the occupiers’ plan, should motivate the residents of Luhansk region to join the ranks of the enemy army," the statement reads.

It is noted that in the future these families are supposed to assimilate, and in the meantime, the Russian Federation is resettling own citizens to Luhansk region. Therefore, such migration flows also aim to change the demographic composition of the region.

As reported, as of November, 11,461 children are reported as “deported” from Ukraine.
