Ukrainian Ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets reported the forced deportation and detention of pupils from a Kherson Oblast boarding school to a psychiatric hospital in Crimea, calling it an instance of genocide.

Russian occupation authorities have deported pupils aged 9 to 17 from the Oleshkiv Children's Boarding School in Kherson Oblast to a psychiatric hospital in the Simferopol district of Crimea.

Dmytro Lubinets characterized these actions as a violation of international conventions and an instance of genocide against Ukrainian children.

Russian military ordered residents of Beryslav to leave before Nov. 10 citing possible destruction of the Kakhovka Power Plant dam.

Natalia Humeniuk stated that Russian troops are trying to create the illusion of withdrawal in the Kherson region to potentially lure Ukrainian forces into traps.

Humeniuk indicated that objective data shows Russian forces are staying and have set up powerful defense units and firing positions on the left bank for fire support on the right.
