(MENAFN- UkrinForm) The Center for Countering Disinformation has reviewed the latest pieces of Russian disinformation and manipulation accompanying the pseudo-referenda, held by Russian proxies regarding the accession of the occupied parts of Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhia and Kherson regions to Russia.
That's according to the Center's update issued on Telegram , Ukrinform reports.
Polling stations for the people to vote in the sham 'referenda' have opened their doors in the temporary accommodation points for refugees in Russia's remote Sakhalin region and Kamchatka area.
Also, in the temporarily occupied territory of Kherson region, those who cooperate with the invaders are mandated to cast their ballots, while 'commission members' go door-to-door, alongside the armed military, bringing voting bins to the locals for them to vote from home
At the same time, the All-Russian Center for Public Opinion Studies published the data of a telephone survey of residents of the temporarily occupied territories, run on the eve of the so-called 'referenda', which claims 87-97% of respondents allegedly voted for their respective region to become part of the Russian Federation.
In Voronezh, a rally was held in support of the 'referenda,' in which at least 20 students of the local university from each faculty were made to attend.
Meanwhile, Kirill Stremousov, a Kherson-based enemy collaborator, stated on September 15 that allegedly 20% of the residents of Kherson region will vote for the region to accede to Russia.
As Ukrinform reported earlier, on September 20, the leaders of the 'LPR/DPR' Russian puppet formations and collaborators in the Russian-captured areas in Kherson and Zaporizhia regions announced the so-called 'referenda on accession to Russia,' scheduling them for September 23-27.
Ukraine and Western leaders have already declared that any Russian pseudo-referenda, held on Ukrainian soil, would be illegitimate.
