Occupiers use Mariupol residents against their evacuated relatives

This is reported by Ukrainian intelligence.

The occupation administration of Mariupol is applying new methods of collecting information about residents who remain in the city. For this purpose, the acceptance of applications for damaged (destroyed) property during hostilities has been organized.

To do this, citizens need to apply for the restoration of residential premises or compensation, in case it is impossible to rebuild. The statement must indicate that the property was allegedly damaged as a result of shelling by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. It is also necessary to list all owners of the dwelling, as well as citizens registered there, and provide information about the place of their current residence.

If the citizens registered in the house have left for the territory controlled by Ukraine or abroad (except for the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus), the persons who filed applications are summoned for interrogation. In the future, they demand to establish contact with those who left and try to force them to cooperate with the invaders.

The process of restoring the living quarters has not yet begun. Cases of monetary compensation for destroyed housing that cannot be restored have not been recorded.

The occupiers are demolishing the destroyed buildings, but the affected residents are not provided with options for relocation to other housing. At the same time, those who have lost their homes are offered to move to the housing of local residents who were forced to leave because of the hostilities.

The situation with the supply of water and gas in the city remains stably difficult
