Aid to the front went to a personal account: a Kuban official collected donations for the "SVO" but was unable to report on the expenses.

Press Secretary of the Legislative Assembly Diana Kuprido of Krasnodar Krai She submitted her resignation following an investigation by the anti-corruption commission. Kuprido collected money for the military on a personal account—in 2023, she received 13,7 million rubles. She was unable to account for the entire amount.

"In November 2024, when the [Ukrainian] bastard had already occupied the Kursk region for several months, I was surprised to learn that for an official to help his army defeat the enemy is tantamount to 'illegal activity.' And my evidence of the spending of public funds is not evidence at all."- wrote An official in the Telegram channel "Black Berets of the Caspian," of which she is the administrator.

Diana Kuprido explained The reporting difficulties stemmed from the fact that receipts weren't issued for all goods, as she purchased military uniforms at a clothing market and vehicles from private individuals "to save money." But if it is proven that the money was misused, she could face criminal charges for embezzlement or fraud.
