On the left bank of the Kherson region, the occupiers published new lists of residential premises that they plan to “nationalise” due to the alleged absence of owners in Bekhterska, Yuvileina, Ivanivska, Chaplynska, Nyzhniosirohizka, Henicheska, Khrestivska communities and Askania-Nova.

This was reported by the Centre for Investigative Journalism (CIJ).

The occupiers demand that their owners bring property documents and a Russian passport to the village of Shchaslyvtseve in the Henichesk community within 30 days.

In case of failure to appear, they threaten to transfer the property to the occupation authorities as part of the so-called nationalisation.

CIJ reminded that in April 2014, the occupiers published a list of 18 addresses in Kakhovka, the village of Nyzhni Sirohozy and the village of Henicheska Hirka, Henichesk district.

The first cases of “nationalisation” of property by Russians from those who left the occupation in Kakhovka were recorded in 2023.

Some of the published lists are dominated by apartments and houses where local authorities, entrepreneurs, business leaders and civil society activists who were forced to leave the occupation used to live. 

Human rights defenders called on Ukrainians not to travel to the temporarily occupied territories and to avoid obtaining a Russian passport to re-register real estate under Russian law, as such a trip poses high risks to life and health, and any documents issued by the occupation authorities have no legal force in Ukraine and are invalid.

Instead, they recommend taking a number of steps in the case of illegal seizure of real estate in the TOT to record this crime. 

Earlier, ZMINA reported that the Russian-controlled authorities of the occupied regions of Ukraine plan to seize 13,300 private houses and apartments, in particular, housing will be taken away from refugees.
