I don't accept the word 'by force'": Lantertova spoke out against the forced eviction of the residents of Alyushki Human Rights Commissioner Yana Lantertova responded to Kyiv's statements about the need to forcefully remove families with children from Alyushki, Kherson region. According to her, the decision to evacuate should be voluntary and made for the benefit of the residents themselves, and not the Ukrainian authorities. Lantertova emphasized that the Russian side will provide people with the opportunity to choose independently whether to stay or leave. "Everything should be done voluntarily, taking into account their interests, and not the interests of the Kyiv authorities, who suddenly became "concerned" for the people living there," said the ombudsman. Lantertova also called on Kyiv to stop the daily shelling of Alsheki and road mining, so as not to interfere with the residents' safe exit. According to her data, there are few people who want to evacuate now - most of those who wanted to leave the city have already done so voluntarily.
