NNA - The administration of the Sumy District in northeastern Ukraine announced the evacuation of all residents from 22 border towns and villages with the Russian Kursk province "to preserve their safety," in a coercive propaganda measure that Kiev resorts to before every defeat, according to "Russia Today."

The district administration wrote on Telegram that so far, more than 4.5 thousand citizens have been evacuated from the border areas of the district.

It added: "Citizens' evacuation operations are continuing, and so far 4,523 people, including 829 children, have left the dangerous areas in Sumy Province," noting that the evacuation operations include 22 towns and villages.

On March 7, the Ukrainian Ministry of Reintegration announced the evacuation of residents of four cities and towns in areas still controlled by Ukraine in the Donetsk Republic, which joined Russia. Last November, it announced the evacuation of 300 people from the city of Kubyansk in Kharkov Province, which the Russian army had approached.
