Russian occupation authorities are preparing to evacuate civilians from occupied Zaporizhzhia and Kherson oblasts to Crimea, conducting surveys of local population in Melitopol and Skadovsk.

The Russian occupiers intensified preparations for the evacuation of the local population in the temporarily occupied territories of Zaporizhzhia and Kherson oblasts to the temporarily occupied territories of Crimea.

The enemy conducted a survey of the local population in Melitopol and Skadovsk regarding possible evacuation.

Buses carrying those wishing to evacuate periodically leave the occupied territories.

The invaders are spreading information that the forced evacuation of the civilian population will begin at the end of April.

Satellite imagery shows a 70-kilometer long Russian trench in occupied Zaporizhzhia Oblast.

The trench stretches from near Melitopol to outside Marynivka village in Prymorskyi District.

Russia started digging the fortification in September using a large labor force of immigrant workers from Central Asia.

Farm buildings and private residential buildings were damaged, and the windows were blown out by the shock wave. The premises of the enterprise, as well as the adjacent territory, were partially destroyed.
