The Russian occupying authorities issued an order to deport the residents of Enerhodar, Zaporizhzhia region, in the direction of Berdiansk and Prymorsk.
The General Staff of Ukraine's armed forces reported that on Facebook.
"The Russian occupiers are deporting local residents from the temporarily occupied Enerhodar of the Zaporizhzhia region in the direction of the settlements of Berdiansk and Prymorsk to local recreation centers," the military command said.
As the General Staff emphasized, the aggressors are primarily evacuating people who have Russian passports. The priority is the deportation of persons who received Russian citizenship in the first months of the occupation.
It should be noted that on May 5, the so-called "head" of the occupied Zaporizhzhia region, Yevhen Balytsky, appointed by the occupiers, announced the so-called partial evacuation of residents of 18 front-line settlements: Tymoshivka, Smyrnivka, Tarasivka, Orlianske, Molochansk, Kuibysheve, Pryshyb, Tokmak, Mala Bilozerka, Vasylivka, Velyka Bilozerka , Dniprorudne, Mykhailivka, Kamianka-Dniprovska, Enerhodar, Polohy, Kinski Rozdory, Rozivka.
The mayor of Melitopol, Ivan Fedorov declares that the Russian "evacuation" from the occupied part of the Zaporizhia region is happening too quickly.
Because of this, huge queues formed at the Chongar checkpoint on the way from Melitopol to Crimea.
