Between 18–20 May 1944, #Stalin deported nearly 200,000 Crimean #Tatars from #Crimea, forcing entire families into freight wagons and sending them thousands of kilometers away, mainly to Uzbekistan. Today, #Russia again seeks to erase Crimea’s identity through occupation, repression, and propaganda.
