(Russian media reports)
According to Global Network report, recently had an missile attack in Khlsong. The Ukrainian army launched missiles to attack the predetermined target and directly "beheaded" a senior Khlsong official, causing him to corpse on the spot. Russian media quoted news released by Khlsong's military and civilian administrative agency to confirm that the agency's security officer Katerinichev was killed due to missile strikes. In recent days, the Ukrainian army has continued to bomb public infrastructure in Khlsong and other states. These crackdowns not only caused huge damage, but also caused Ukrainians living in these areas to face life safety risks.
Of course, the Ukrainian army must have focused on some pro-Russian local officials, and these crackdowns are not available now. Since the Donbas crisis began in 2014, Kiev has launched an assassination operation. The current former leader of the "Donetsk People's Republic" Zakharchenko was killed in a cafe in 2018, and Pushlin took over his position. Ukrainian intelligence information intercepted by Russia later showed that this seemed to be a targeted assassination, which might be a special sabotage team that carried out the assassination of Zakharchenko. Recently, the "Luhansk People's Republic" also announced that it had thwarted a plot of "physical destruction".

After the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, various accidents were found in places controlled by the Russian army. Many pro-Russian high-ranking officials became targets of attack, and the assassination was not limited to explosions. Some were brutally killed at home, while others were poisoned. For example, Governor Saldo, Governor of Kherson Prefecture, was suspected to have been poisoned by a maid. He immediately became unconscious after eating. He was then sent to Moscow for emergency rescue and finally recovered his health. The Russian side also announced that he had evidence of Ukrainian personnel's poisoning.

In addition to "focusing on" pro-Russian senior officials, Kiev also threatened to launch a major purge on those Ukrainians who tried to help Russia. Previously, Zelensky had announced the removal of the positions of Bakanov, the head of the Ukrainian National Security Bureau, and carried out a major purge on content of multiple departments, involving hundreds of people, all of whom were questioned for being "pro-Russia" and "traitorous". In addition, due to the recent rapid public referendum of four Ukrainian states to Russia, which has stimulated the nerves of Kiev, Zelensky's adviser Podoliak has warned that Kiev has a list of people supporting the referendum, and those Ukrainians who help the referendum will be accused of "treason" and will be sentenced to up to five years in prison. Obviously, Kyiv is ready to severely suppress the Russians.

It can be seen that Ukraine is trying to prevent the trend of some regions from joining Russia through various assassinations, raids and intimidation. However, since the four Ukrainian states have completed the referendum, I just waited for Putin and to nod and agreed. Therefore, the Ukrainian attacks did not prevent these areas from joining Russia's action plan.
