Voronezh and Lipetsk denied the placement of Belgorod refugees in the region

The authorities of the Voronezh and Lipetsk regions denied the evacuation of residents of the Belgorod region to the regions. The authorities believe that false information is being spread with the aim of “destabilizing the situation and sowing unnecessary panic.”

In the government of the Lipetsk region reportedthat information about the opening of temporary accommodation centers for refugees in the region is being disseminated in Ukrainian Telegram channels. The government of the Voronezh region also denied accepting refugees from Belgorod: “Our region is always ready to come to the aid of neighboring regions. However, at the moment, no applications have been received for the placement of citizens from Belgorod or any other region of the Russian Federation in the subject.”

In recent days, against the backdrop of massive shelling of the Belgorod region from Ukraine, false information has been spreading in the region. For example, residents received calls from unknown persons urging them to evacuate. Also on social networks published reports of false mining and closure of polling stations during the presidential elections.
