Russian invaders in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine are increasing pressure on the local population, the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine reports, according to UNN.

The DIU notes that Russia has significantly intensified intimidation and repression in connection with the preparation for the so-called presidential elections in Russia, as well as to identify opponents of Russian enslavement.
Occupation administrations create terrible and unbearable conditions for those citizens who refuse to receive Russian passports: people are denied medical and social assistance, deprived of access to electricity and water supply
As part of the punitive and repressive groups that conduct systematic searches of private homes of Ukrainians in the temporarily occupied territories of Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions, the Russian invaders began to use behavioral analysis specialists.
During the so-called "document checks" and searches, the "specialists" closely monitor the homeowner, creating additional psychological pressure.
In an attempt to intimidate and establish total control over the local population, Russians in the occupied Ukrainian territories are trying to cut off all possible channels of communication and access to information
In particular, Ukrainians under occupation have to turn to Russian-controlled providers to obtain permission and access to the mobile Internet. In these companies, unknown codes are reportedly entered on people's phones, which may indicate the hidden installation of spyware.
Addendum
In the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine, the occupiers have intensified measures to counter the underground and search for partisans.
