In the temporarily occupied part of the Kherson region, local residents, especially pensioners, are in a difficult situation. The Russian military is buying up food from stores, leaving the shelves empty. As a result, people are forced to travel tens of kilometers to buy food, but there is almost no transportation in the villages.

This was reported by activists of the Yellow Ribbon resistance movement.

It is especially hard for the elderly: hours of waiting in the cold, lack of medical care and basic products make their choice cruel - food or health. The occupation authorities promise to solve the problem, but there is no real action.

Meanwhile, in Simferopol, activists of the Yellow Ribbon movement continue their struggle. They post leaflets with instructions on how to avoid mobilization and not to fight for the aggressor. Such materials have appeared on Myrna, Jami Elu and Zavodsky Lane, and there are only more of them.

In the area of Beryslav, Kherson region, there is an increase in the activity of Russian troops. The occupiers have intensified artillery shelling, are using drones more often, and are trying to strengthen their defensive positions.

Ukrainian defenders are holding the line and preparing for possible assaults. According to them, every day is becoming more difficult.

Recently, in Kherson, a Russian drone attacked an ambulance that was rushing to a call.

Earlier, Russian troops shelled civilian infrastructure in Kherson and Beryslav districts, injuring 12 people, including three police officers.

In the village of Mylove, Beryslav community, a drone dropped a bomb, scattering dangerous anti-personnel mines of the "Petal" type on the territory.
