During the day, missile and artillery units hit a command post, an anti-aircraft missile system, an area where the enemy’s manpower, weapons and military equipment are concentrated, a composition of fuel and lubricants and 2 enemy ammunition depots.
According to the General Staff, the Russian invaders continue to rob the civilian population of Ukraine, appropriating the grain harvest of citizens. For example, in the city of Berdyansk, Zaporozhye region, the so-called Russian occupation “authority” is trying to take out stolen corn by loading it onto barges.
At the same time, the Russian occupiers continue the forced passportization of the population of the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. In particular, in the village of Tavria in the Kherson region, the invaders are actively making home rounds of local residents in order to check the presence of a Russian passport. Citizens of Ukraine who did not receive a Russian passport were informed that if documents are not issued before June 1, they will be deported with confiscation of all personal property.
At the front, the Russian occupation troops continue to suffer heavy losses. All medical facilities in the temporarily occupied territory are overflowing with wounded invaders. As a result, the enemy is using the civilian educational institutions of the temporarily occupied territories for his own purposes.
So, in the village of Vysokoe, Zaporozhye region, the occupiers equipped the sports hall of the local school as a military hospital. Medical services are provided exclusively to Russian servicemen.
As of April 15, about 100 occupiers with injuries of varying severity were under treatment.
Earlier, we reported that the Wagner mercenary group, with which the Ukrainian military is fighting in Donbass, in order to replenish its ranks, kidnaps Russian soldiers and forces them to sign contracts.
