Not people. Criminal neo-Stalinist enclaves that Lungansk and Donetsk were turned into by Russia.

People routinely disappear, being put in the basement (na podval), tortured for smallest reasons.

Drafts when people are being used a cannon fodder.

It’s a disgrace what Putin’s people turned this place into over 8 years.

Same or worse fate awaits newly occupied territories too.

Is Crimea a criminal neo-Stalinist enclave too? Just asking.
Crimea is closer to a regular Russian region. Criminal groups affiliated to state and police rule. All dissent is suppressed and you’ll more likely to be harassed than murdered or disappear. DNR and LNR are more brutal, severe and chaotic.
Exactly all that lotusmars wrote.

It is a crime against humanity.
