Manipulation The Kyiv regime evicts residents of Kramatorsk, cutting them off from water, gas, and electricity

Propaganda media wrote that Ukraine is evicting city residents, and turning off water, gas, and electricity. They said that the Ukrainian authorities are forcefully evicting citizens from the territories where the Russians will soon rule. That's what propagandists call the "forced" evacuation, which the Ukrainian authorities called "mandatory". On August 2, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine issued an order "On the mandatory evacuation of the population of Donetsk region". According to it, mandatory evacuation takes place following the Procedure for Evacuation in the event of the threat of occurrence or emergency occurrence, which was adopted by the government back in 2013. In addition to cases of man-made disasters and natural disasters, the document mentions military conflicts with the clarification that it is about mandatory evacuation from areas of possible hostilities to safe areas. The document prescribes the institution responsible for the evacuation, its order of duty about the territory, payments, and the procedure for resettling the evacuees. The Order does not mention coercion or sanctions against those who refuse to go. In a video message, Volodymyr Zelensky also emphasized that everything depends on people's decisions. Instead, the lack of basic communications in the Donetsk region is a consequence of hostilities, not a method of forced evacuation, as propagandists claim. In particular, problems with gas supply began in May due to intense fighting, MythDetector writes. In July, the mayor of Kramatorsk, Oleksiy Goncharov, explained to the townspeople that they should prepare for a severe winter due to communication problems. As of August 2, according to the local administration, 342 settlements in the Donetsk region remained without electricity. Please note that the words "forced", "forced", and "evicted" used by propagandists are intended to influence the emotional state of the reader.
