The 'Squatting' of Homes in Donetsk: How Occupants Are Robbing Locals.


Occupants are Taking Housing in Occupied Donetsk
The occupying authorities in the occupied territories of Donetsk are massively seizing housing, justifying it by 'nationalization'. This information is reported by Glavkom, referring to its article 'This Apartment is No Longer Yours! The Story of the Largest Looting in the World'.
The editorial describes two real stories. One of them tells about Natalia Semchenko, who left her home in Mariupol during the invasion and moved to Kyiv. She was forced to return to the occupied city in 2024. To confirm her ownership rights to the property, she had to undergo a several-hour check by Russian special services.
Also, a resident of Makiyivka received a notice about the loss of ownership rights to two apartments. She appealed to the occupying authorities but received no response.
The article also tells about a couple who purchased an apartment in the occupied territory in 2021. However, they were denied registration of ownership rights, citing a fake order. Lawsuits against the occupiers were also unsuccessful.
People affected by these actions are waiting for responses from the occupying 'administration' regarding the loss of property.
It should be noted that the fight to reclaim one's property in the occupied territories of Donetsk region is very challenging. However, there are some possibilities for protecting one's interests, according to lawyers.
