The Russians steal everything from the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine, and their priority is agricultural products. The chairman of Melitopol, Ivan Fedorov, said: “For the last year and a half, the Russians are trying to steal everything from the temporarily occupied territory, and they are giving priority to our agricultural products – wheat and sunflower seeds. Last year, the Russians first tried to buy grain at half the cost price. After it was not possible to redeem, they simply took it away.
Currently, there is only one purchasing company that has the right to purchase agricultural products and grain. And the purchase price is approximately 3,000 rubles, which is approximately 1,500 hryvnias. And we understand that this cost is approximately two to three times lower than the cost price of the products.”
He also commented on the humanitarian situation in his city, in particular, he told about the consequences for the population of the terrorist attack by the Russians at the Kakhovskaya HPP. In the Temporarily Occupied Territory of Zaporizhzhya Region, according to Fedorov, hospitals are a disaster: “There are outbreaks of the disease. The first thing that brings an ecological catastrophe and an epidemiological catastrophe is the terrorist attack that the Russians carried out at the Kakhovskaya HPP.
Immediately after that, we saw an overcrowded infectious disease hospital in Melitopol. Even the Gauleiters confirmed that there are patients in the infectious disease hospital today. And it is difficult for us to establish the accuracy of diagnoses. Even some infectious patients were sent to regular inpatient facilities, to regular hospitals,” said the chairman of Melitopol.
In addition, the chairman of Melitopol told how the Russians continue to abduct Ukrainian children: “A large number of children from socially vulnerable sections of the population remained in the temporarily occupied territory. And the Gauleiters themselves reported that they handed over 230 children to new families. The Russians handed them over to incomprehensible families under incomprehensible conditions, it is not clear to whom… Approximately 1,000 children from the temporarily occupied part of the Zaporizhzhia region were taken to the territory of the Russian Federation.”
This was reported by the State Emergency Service of Ukraine: “On July 30, at 6:46 p.m., Russians shelled one of the villages of the Zaporizhia district. As a result, a barley field caught fire. The area of the fire was 20 hectares. Before the arrival of the emergency services units, local farmers cleared the field, thereby preventing spread of fire and saved 60 hectares of crops.”
At this time, according to the report, another fire broke out as a result of shelling near one of the villages of Zaporizhzhіa district.
Plantation and dry grass on a total area of 0.02 hectares were on fire, rescuers extinguished the fire.
In both cases, there were no victims or victims.
On July 30, at around 9 p.m., the Russian military carried out an airstrike on critical infrastructure in the city of Orihiv, Zaporizhzhia region. As a result of the air bomb hit, the building was partially destroyed.
This was reported to the State Emergency Service of Ukraine.
Rescuers unblocked two victims from under the rubble of the house, they were handed over to medics. Currently, employees of the State Emergency Service are continuing emergency and rescue work on dismantling structures.
37 rescuers and 11 units of equipment were involved from the State Emergency Service.
Russian troops continue to rob civilians. In the temporarily occupied Energodar, while checking the phone, Russians also check bank applications, after which funds disappear from the account. This was reported by Dmytro Orlov, chairman of Energodaru. Under the pretext of searching for weapons and drugs, the Russian military breaks into people’s apartments. During the search of the apartment, part of the Russian military searches the rooms, while others search the phone. The Russian military asks for all passwords, including those from banking applications. The reason is to make sure that the person will not inform the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
“After conducting a search and checking the phone, Ukrainian SIM cards and bank cards are usually cut in half, the bank application in the phone is deleted. And only later, after restoring the SIM and bank card, the owner realizes that during the phone check, all his money was transferred to Russian accounts,” Dmytro Orlov wrote.
Such cases are not unique, the chairman writes. And people cannot return their earned money, because the occupied Energodar has been living outside the legal field for a long time.
“The only law that applies there is the aggressive force of the Russians with weapons in their hands,” Orlov wrote.
