“Russia is not evacuating, we have been deported. We had no choice’ –

When her partner doesn’t come home, Anna decides to look for him in the destruction of Mariupol. It is the end of April and there is heavy fighting in the east of the city where they live. There are so many bodies in the street that he can only come to one conclusion: Dmitri must be dead.

But he didn’t die. Dmitri and his mother were stopped in the street by Russian soldiers and put on a bus. “For their own safety,” he said. Dmitry doesn’t want to come and says they want to go home. But it is clear that he has no other choice.

Dmitry is one of more than a million Ukrainians transferred by Russia to detention centers and camps in Russian-occupied territories or in Russia itself. Moscow speaks of evacuations: so that civilians would be rescued. But Ukraine says civilians have been deported.

Studies by humanitarian organizations also show that refugees have been moved to Russia against their will. Russian media reported that their end ended in Russia’s far east, near Vladivostok, a few thousand kilometers from Ukraine.

Persons without identity papers and money cannot leave Russia. They are addicted to bunkers all over Russia.
