Details. It is noted that the russian occupiers continue to put pressure on local population of the temporarily occupied territories of Kherson Oblast, who refuse to cooperate with the occupation authorities, and conduct house-to-house searches. In addition, the invaders are concerned about the pro-Ukrainian attitude of the citizens of the oblast, which poses a threat to them.
In some settlements of Melitopol Rayon, Zaporizhzhia Oblast, the enemy is carrying out filtering actions. During the inspection, the occupiers pay special attention to phones, looking for confirmation of cooperation with the Defence Forces of Ukraine.
The General Staff separately notes that one of the russian units, that operate in the vicinities of Novopavlivka and Volnovakha, Donetsk Oblast, ordered civilian uniform with Rosneft and Elektrostal logos for its personnel.
The Ukrainian side assures that by changing clothes into civilian ones, the occupiers are trying to hide their affiliation with the russian occupation forces.
Previously. The enemy struck Soledar 91 times over the past day. Over the same period, 42 armed clashes with the occupiers took place in the Bakhmut sector.
