The situation at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) remains tense. The NPP staff refuse to collaborate with Russian forces and are attempting to flee the temporarily occupied territories.

Russian troops threatened people who voted against joining Russia with mobilization in Enerhodar.

Occupying forces in Enerhodar banned residents from leaving the city and restricted movement, particularly targeting Zaporizhzhia NPP workers. Reports indicate Russian patrols are forcing citizens to vote in sham referendums under threat of violence and mobilization.

The occupied part of Kherson Oblast has been completely closed for entry and exit according to the Ukrainian General Staff.

Approximately 800 Azov residents remain in Russian captivity, including more than 40 women and pregnant women.

Olha Kravchenko reported that nearly 90% of returned prisoners exhibited extreme stages of anorexia, moral and psychological exhaustion, untreated gunshot wounds, and shrapnel injuries.

The Russian side does not allow UN mission and Red Cross access to Ukrainian prisoners of war.
