Starting on Nov. 6, Russians have begun to forcibly “evacuate” residents of Hola Prystan, Oleshky, Kakhovka, Hornostaivka, Velyka Lepetykha, and Verkhnii Rohachyk settlements, according to the National Resistance Center.

Russians are now actively setting up a defense line in the region while putting soldiers in stolen houses, where they resort to looting, the center reported.
