They also plan to transport waste material to the occupied territories from Russia’s Voronezh, Rostov and Belgorod oblasts, which border Ukraine.

The National Resistance Center pointed out that the Russian Federation is already transporting rubbish from Rostov Oblast to the temporarily occupied territories of Donetsk Oblast, having abandoned plans to build a new landfill site near the city of Rostov due to protests from local residents.

Background:

  • In 2023, Russia exported at least US$14.3 million worth of coal mined in the occupied territories to Türkiye.
