A series of attacks are launched on polling stations in apparent protests over an election Vladimir Putin is all but guaranteed to win. Meanwhile, Ukraine says Kursk and Belgorod are now active combat zones, after armed anti-Kremlin groups stormed across the border into Russia yesterday.
In October 2022, Putin signed laws absorbing four Ukrainian regions into Russia: Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia.The city of Kherson was liberated by Ukrainian troops about a month later. But much of Kherson region, along with much of Donetsk, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia remain under Russian control.According to a report by the BBC, people in these regions are being put under considerable pressure to vote in the election, one of many moves aimed at keeping them under Russian control.
After these rules came in, hundreds of properties were deemed abandoned and seized by the Russian government.A more recent law says anyone in the occupied territories without a Russian passport by July can be jailed as a 'foreign citizen'.Each step makes it harder for Ukraine to claim back the land and people and makes it easier for Russia to claim it is defending its own people.Below are photos showing voting in Donetsk.
