Russia redirects humanitarian aid from Ukraine to Kursk amidst conflict
Russians are significantly transporting humanitarian goods to the Kursk region from temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. "It's no secret that Ukrainians are not a priority," notes the National Resistance Centre.
The National Resistance Centre reported that all humanitarian aid has been redirected to the Kursk region. It was emphasised that for Russia, humanitarian goods serve as a means of extorting and bribing societal loyalty.
The humanitarian aid was presented as an initiative from the population of the occupied territories. Meanwhile, residents are being denied assistance. The NRC informs that instead, they are fed promises.
The centre pointed out that the needs of ethnic Russians take higher priority because the Kremlin fully understands that TOT (temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine) is not Russia. "It is no secret that for the Kremlin, Ukrainians are not a priority," it reads.
Situation in the Kursk region
By Saturday, in the Kursk region, where Ukrainian forces have been conducting an offensive since 6 August, over 76,000 people have already been evacuated.
On Friday evening, Russian authorities imposed an "anti-terrorist operation regime" in the Kursk, Belgorod, and Bryansk regions, which border Ukraine. This regime allows for "necessary measures and temporary restrictions." This includes forcibly relocating residents, restricting transportation in specific areas, enhancing the protection of important facilities, and using telephone wiretaps.
