Ukraine’s State Bureau of Investigations (SBI) announced that it had begun conducting a “filtration” of civilians in Balakleya, the town in Kharkov Region reportedly taken by forces of the Kiev government.

“The purpose of the measures is to prevent the subversive activities of the Russians and their allies,” the SBI saidon social media. “The time of reckoning has come.”

Ukraine had charged the town’s mayor with treason in April, accusing him of collaborating with Russian troops and helping them distribute humanitarian aid.

      Acceppting it is, the news about that have been posted here on Lemmygrad some time ago. Stands to reason that helping distribute will also be criminalized.

        It was repeated numerous times that those who interact with the “Russian invaders” for ANY FUCKING REASON except shooting them are to be prosecuted.

    There are already unconfirmed reports of rapists and civilian murderers going haywire in the abandoned territories. Of course, military forces withdrew safely. But the population is going to get cleaned up Hitler-style pretty substentially.

      They know they will be defended to the hilt by brainwashed westerners, and any of us who disagree are ignored or silenced. This will absolutely be ignored or treated as ‘Russian propaganda’ even though it’s literally the Ukrainians saying it themselves.

    Could one of y’all try and leave the following link

    https://t.me/DBRgovua/2747

    as a reply to my comment on imgur?

    I suspect that imgur is blocking primary source material from the SBI’s telegram account, where they themselves are saying:

    “collaborators and traitors will be held strictly accountable.”

    “the time of reckoning has come.”

    Because every time I try to leave a comment with that telegram link, the page acts like it accepted my comment, but refreshing shows it isn’t there.
