The residents of Sudzhi during “filtration” are forbidden to talk about Russian shelling – media

The evacuated residents of Sudzhi passed the so -called “filtration”, during which employees of the Russian Federal Security Service forbade them to speak about the shelling of the city by Russian troops. Their relatives were told about it by the publication “We can explain”, the information was also confirmed by Kursk activist Vladimir Sinelnikov.

The units of the Armed Forces entered the Kursk region on August 6, 2024 and kept under control of part of the region, including the city of Sudzha. On March 12, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation stated that it had released the judge, and the temporary acting head of the region Alexander Hinstein announced the evacuation of 275 people.

The son of evacuated residents of one of the villages of Sudzhansky district Artem said that the FSB staff “very persistently” asked them to “do not talk unnecessarily”, not to communicate with journalists with non -governmental means of information and not talk about the shelling of Sudzhi by the Russian army.

“In Kursk they were taken to” psychotherapy “as they called it, to the FSB. They talked as I understand, with everyone who came from there. At least everyone with whom were going through “psychotherapy”. They asked about how they lived with whom they communicated, communicated. They watched the phones. It seemed to be rude to the rude, not directly intimidated, they were not called traitors. But they were looking for, as I understand, someone type of agents, ”he said.

According to him, he could not contact his parents since the capture of the city of the Armed Forces. After the meeting, the parents told him that there was no electricity in the city, but there was water, and Ukrainian servicemen brought them food, helped to “patch” houses affected by arrivals, and did not insult.

“At the beginning (soldiers of the Armed Forces) walked around the houses in the city, came, asked if anyone, who was alive, offered to go to the sums. If someone lived in the house and refused to go – people wrote on the fence. Periodically, they could come, ask if something was needed, ”the words of parents reports.

According to him, people lived mainly in their homes, and in the boarding school, which was hit in February 2025, were lying patients or elderly people, and the rest of the people went there for food. His parents are convinced that they were fired by the Russian military: “My first did not believe, and then it was no longer difficult to believe. Well, the Ukrainians who stand in Sudzh and bomb themselves – it is clear that the loaf when you live in it. Well, from the realization that they were left, and then those who left them, and also throw bombs on the homes – that’s, they say, such a turning point was. ”

Information about “filtration” to the journalists was confirmed by Kursk activist Vladimir Sinelnikov, however, according to him, it is not the placement of people in some camps, but talking with FSB staff. “Not everyone is going on. With those who arrived from the occupation, they conduct conversations, this is a standard practice for any warning country. In everyday life, this is called filtration, it is necessary for the detection of foreigners among the evacuated ones. Given the reluctance of people to communicate with the press, we can assume that in such conversations they are asked to limit such communication. I do not have specific evidence of such requests, ”Sinelnikov said.
