[...] They are once again trying to scare people into submission by threatening them with additional law enforcement officers and prisons."

Details: Fedorov said that the new officers are expected to be deployed in the settlements of Tokmak, Polohy and Vasylivka, though they will spend nights in a "safer place" in light of fears of subversive operations by Ukrainian partisans.

Previously: Russian forces in the occupied territories of Zaporizhzhia and Kherson oblasts are preparing for new, large-scale check-ups of the residents' "loyalty".
