In temporarily occupied Luhansk, Russians are taking housing from people who have not received a Russian passport.

In the occupied territories of Luhansk, Russian occupiers are taking housing from local residents without a Russian passport. This was reported by the National Resistance Center.

The representatives of the so-called Putin's 'People's Front' in temporarily occupied Luhansk are searching for people with limited physical abilities and taking their housing. The reason for such actions is the absence of a Russian passport.

The so-called Putin's 'People's Front' in temporarily occupied Luhansk is hunting for people with limited physical abilities and 'nationalizing' their housing. The reason for depriving them of property rights is the absence of a Russian passport.

It is noted that Russians are offering local residents to change their citizenship and obtain a Russian passport, then their housing will remain with them.

Recently, such blackmail resulted in a 72-year-old woman with a disability in temporarily occupied Luhansk becoming a hostage to the situation, as she became a Russian citizen without her consent.

New law regarding foreign citizens

As of February 5, 2025, the law 'On the Legal Status of Foreign Citizens in the Russian Federation' will come into effect in Russia. According to this law, Ukrainians who do not obtain a Russian passport and do not change their citizenship in temporarily occupied territories will not be able to legalize their relationships.

Also, starting February 5, 2025, a registry of controlled individuals will operate in the temporarily seized territories of Ukraine, in which the enemy will include Ukrainians without a Russian passport.

If data about a Ukrainian who has not received a Russian passport enters the registry, he or she will have to leave the settlement or obtain legal grounds for residence. Additionally, residents of temporarily occupied territories without a Russian passport will be banned from using banks, registering real estate, driving vehicles, and getting married.
