The procedure for submitting an application for recognition of a child who lives in the occupied territory and has not reached the age of 14 as a citizen of the Russian Federation has already entered into force. For this, one of the parents must have a Russian passport."

Details: According to the Military Administration of the Oblast, people who do not take a Russian passport are immediately subject to layoffs or are denied social benefits. The occupiers do not leave any time for reflection.

Meanwhile, the Russians cannot cope with their own soldiers fleeing from the front.

According to Luhansk Oblast Military Administration, against a background of significant losses for the invaders in Luhansk Oblast, the number of desertions of Russian servicemen and the cases of them leaving combat positions have increased.

In this regard, the Russian military leadership has increased the number of patrols to detain and return deserters to their units.

On 27 December, Ukrainian soldiers repelled attacks by the occupiers in the areas of Ploshanka and Chervonopopivka.

On the Kupiansk front, the invaders shelled the areas of Novoselivske, Stelmakhivka and Kolomyichykha in Luhansk Oblast, as well as the settlements of Ploshchanka and Dibrova on the Lyman front. 

In the course of the previous day, Ukrainian Rocket Forces and Artillery units struck one command post, seven clusters of Russian manpower and equipment, two ammunition storage points, as well as an important military facility.
