Russian troops are blocking the exit from Melitopol to conduct a "conscription campaign" there. This was reported by the press service of the Zaporizhzhia RSA (Region State Administration). They explained that the occupiers wanted to "replenish manpower in this way."
At the same time, as noted in the report, Melitopol residents started to receive SMS messages from the russian invaders, demanding to inform them about the planned evacuation of civilians. In addition, the occupiers are spreading fake information that the UAF (Armed Forces of Ukraine) is allegedly preparing for massive shootings and killings of civilians during the evacuation.
"Of course, this is an absolute lie, but the russians do not know how to wage war with honor and therefore use fakes and false accusations," - the press service reported.
The russian occupiers also terrorize occupied Mykhailivka. They steal the cars and valuable things from the residents.
