The Kherson Region in Ukraine is set to hold a referendum to become a full-fledged entity of the Russian Federation, according to the deputy head of the region’s military-civilian administration, Kirill Stremousov on Thursday.

"The Kherson Region will forget about neo-Nazism already in the near future. We are getting ready for the referendum, we will hold it. I hope that in the near future already we will become a full-fledged territorial entity of the Russian Federation," Kirill Stremousov said in a video published on his Telegram channel.

Russian military forces had complete control of the area, according to a report from the Russian MoD in mid-March, after which a military-civilian government was established in the area in late April. The officials of the area announced their intention to join Russia by conducting a referendum, but they have not yet chosen a date for it. According to a statement by Stremousov to TASS, the Kherson Region's officials backed the Zaporozhye Region's proposal to hold the referendums on the same day.
