There is 'panic and fear that the [Ukraine] Armed Forces will be able to liberate Crimea in the near future,' a commenter said.
Emil Ibragimov, the head of the Crimean project and educational platform Q-Hub, told Radio NV in a video published on Friday that Russians are fleeing from Crimea to the neighboring Russian region of Krasnodar because they fear Ukraine will eventually liberate theIbragimov said that many Russian citizens who settled in Crimea after it was occupied eight years ago had already left.
"We saw a video and, according to the locals, many people left Crimea after strikes by the [Ukraine] Armed Forces. And we know about the relocation of local occupiers or occupier officials to the Krasnodar region of Russia, where they are currently renting apartments, moving there to live," he said. Russian soldiers patrol the area surrounding a Ukrainian military unit in Perevalnoye, outside Simferopol in Crimea, on March 20, 2014. Russians are reportedly fleeing Crimea amid fears that Ukraine will soon move to recapture the region that Vladimir Putin illegally annexed in 2014."That is, we see this trend and can conclude that this is, of course, panic and fear that the [Ukraine] Armed Forces will be able to liberate Crimea in the near future," Ibragimov added.
His remarks coincide with an assessment by the British Ministry of Defence on Friday. This concluded that Russia is regrouping its forces in preparation for a potential Ukrainian push into Crimea and other Russian-occupied areas of Ukraine following the withdrawal of Russian troops from the western portion of the southern Kherson region on November 10.
