The russian military blocked all exits from the temporarily occupied Kherson region into Ukrainian-controlled territory.
The speaker of the South operational command, Vladyslav Nazarov announced this.
"Having no other options, the occupiers blocked the exit from the Kherson region to the territories controlled by the Ukrainian authorities and are trying to direct everyone who wants to leave to Crimea, as the only possible direction.
At the same time, according to Nazarov, residents, despite the pressure and threats of the occupiers, celebrated the Day of Embroidered Shirt.
They distributed photos of Ukrainian symbols, leaflets urging the occupiers to sew to their homes, posters, and graffiti about their pro-Ukrainian position and the fact that Kherson is Ukraine.
