The occupiers are refusing to sell essential medications to Ukrainians without a Russian passport.

In the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine, Russians have prohibited the sale of essential medications in pharmacies to individuals who have not obtained Russian passports.

This was reported by the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense.

According to intelligence sources, insulin and medications for the thyroid gland have been banned. The GUR explains that the prohibition on the sale of medicines is part of the forced passportization process.

Additionally, since February, the occupying administrations have prohibited medical assistance to anyone who has refused to obtain Russian citizenship, notes the GUR.

Pensioners who remain under occupation without Russian passports have stopped receiving their pensions. Those who avoid contact with the occupiers face threats of deportation to remote regions of Russia, the intelligence reports.
