There is no discussion on this story. It’s a story that’s been simmering for several years. The roughest most dilapidated area of Rostov and the ‘dark glasses” brigade have been openly threatening people ‘sell or be burn’t out’. Some have been offered less than 100,000pyr for their homes. Governement needs to step in.
