Border villagers abducted and taken to Russia, says Ukraine
Several border villagers have reportedly been abducted and taken to Russia, according to claims made by Ukraine. The incident is said to have occurred near the border between the two countries. The individuals involved in the alleged abductions have not been identified.
Ukraine has accused Russia of orchestrating these abductions as part of a broader campaign to destabilize the region. Ukrainian officials have condemned the actions, labeling them as a violation of international law and human rights. They have called for the immediate release of the abducted individuals and have urged the international community to intervene.
In response to these allegations, Russia has denied any involvement in the abductions. Russian authorities have dismissed the claims as baseless and have suggested that Ukraine is trying to fabricate provocations to garner international sympathy and support. They have called for a thorough investigation into the matter to uncover the truth.
