The Russians are clearing the occupied territories of Ukraine from uncontrolled churches

This is done by the “Russian Association for the Protection of Religious Freedom”.

The Russians began to engage in the “integration” of churches in the purchased territories. This is stated on the website of the Center of National Resistance.

After that, only churches controlled by the Kremlin will remain in the region, the Center of National Resistance notes.

“In the temporarily occupied territories, the corresponding program “assistance to religious organizations in the integration into the Russian socio-cultural space” began to operate, the message says.

It is carried out by the “Russian Association for the Protection of Religious Freedom”, which is financed by grants from the President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin.

In fact, the organization is engaged in auditing the property of other denominations in order to further destroy all Protestant movements, the local Orthodox Church of Ukraine and Muslim centers that are not under the control of the spiritual administration of Muslims in Russia.

Moscow has already implemented a similar policy in Crimea.

On December 26, the Russian occupiers shelled the territory of the Kherson region 40 times.

This was announced by the head of the Kherson regional military administration, Yaroslav Yanushevich

According to him, the occupiers fired with artillery, MLRS, mortars and tanks.

“The enemy attacked the city of Kherson 11 times. The factory, private and apartment buildings were targeted. One person was wounded last night due to Russian shelling.

As a result of shelling of Kherson with mortars on December 23, the young Kulzhinsky family was injured. A rocket hit their apartment.

Six-year-old Alisa and her mother Yulia were seriously injured. The girl’s father Kostyantyn carried the girls out from under the rubble of the apartment. He managed to pull his relatives out from under the wreckage and hand them over to the ambulance that arrived. Now the child is in the intensive care unit of the Kherson regional hospital with multiple injuries. Alisa’s mother, Yulia, also has multiple injuries.

“I looked at my wife – she was covered in blood. She was examined, but there were no external wounds. Already at the hospital, it turned out that Yuli had a fracture of five ribs and a shoulder blade, a laceration on her head. I only have a cut on my head. Alisa’s left side of the head was injured, her left ear was crushed and her left eye was put out. There is also an open fracture on the left little finger, a fracture on the left leg and a penetrating wound on the right, something else with the shoulder, but it will be looked at later,” Kostyantyn describes.

So far, doctors do not give forecasts. Alisa’s operation lasted six hours. Afterward, the surgeon said doctors were able to put the shattered ear back together; time will tell how it will take root. On December 25, an ophthalmologist who came to the children’s regional hospital performed a second operation on the girl’s left eye. The doctors promised that later the child would be able to get a prosthesis instead of an eye. And her inner ear hears. According to the anesthesiologist, the girl lost a lot of blood. Alisa’s condition was stabilized, and on Tuesday, December 27, she and her father will be sent to Okhmatdit in Kyiv. It will be her birthday, she will be 7 years old.

 Yulia is being transferred to Mykolaiv for treatment. While she was in Kherson, a Russian projectile “flew” into the regional hospital and exploded right next to the building. This scared the woman very much, because she is lying next to the window, and she can’t get up yet. She also has a long treatment ahead of her.

Yesterday, December 26, the invaders shelled the Kherson region 40 times, Kherson – 11 times. In the regional center, they hit a factory and residential buildings. It is known that 1 civilian was wounded in the region. This is stated in the message of the head of the Kherson regional state administration, Yaroslav Yanushevich.

Thus, the occupiers shelled the Kherson region during the day with artillery, MLRS, mortars and tanks. Kherson, in particular, was attacked by the enemy 11 times.

According to the Kherson Regional Military Administration, the Russian military in the regional center targeted a factory, private and apartment buildings.

As a result of the Russian attacks, one person was injured.

Even at the beginning of the full-scale war, on March 2, the invaders captured Kherson. The Ukrainians met them with protests, but in response they began to open fire on the civilian population.

And the more time passed, the more terrifying the everyday life of the occupied city became. Tamara Kurshakova, a doctor and volunteer, told about what was happening in Kherson.

The first weeks of the occupation of Kherson

The woman said that from the first week of the occupation of the city, everyone expected that Kherson would be liberated, and despite the unknown that every day brought, they went to protests. At first, the invaders themselves did not know what to do with it. However, it wasn’t long before they started removing Ukrainian symbols and shooting at people.

Due to the arbitrariness of the Russians, more and more people began to enter hospitals, medicines disappeared from pharmacies. However, the occupiers themselves, despite their “courage”, did not dare to visit local doctors for about two months. And at the beginning of May they came, but not only for treatment.

The Russians started coming at the beginning of May, but we were not treated so much as demanded that we work for them. They came periodically in their cars, entered with assault rifles, intimidated. They spoke more with the management, they did not touch us, Tamara said.

 The method of intimidation and bribery

At gunpoint, the Russians “asked” to cooperate with them. However, they tried to enter from the other side.

They offered 10,000 rubles immediately to those who would provide their passports, all data. Further, if an agreement was concluded with them, they promised to pay money. Our department went over to the side of the occupiers, they imprisoned their man and demanded that doctors be on duty in the square where the Russians distributed humanitarian aid, – said the woman.

What’s more, according to the occupiers’ ultimatum, every doctor from every hospital had to be on duty at the place where the humanitarian aid was distributed to locals in a large square without trees. They demanded this, because due to high temperatures, people who stood in lines lost consciousness.

According to Tamara’s colleagues, they were constantly watched over and even escorted to the toilet with weapons. Of course, medical aid had to be provided under the muzzles of machine guns.

What is happening in Kherson today

Ukraine managed to wrest Kherson from the clutches of the invaders on November 11. However, even after that, they do not stop terrorizing the city. Thus, on December 23, the occupiers hit Kherson with phosphorous ammunition, which can cause particularly severe injuries or provoke a slow and painful death. All because the phosphorous charge burns until it burns out completely or stops its contact with oxygen.

The next day, December 24, the invaders shelled the city center from “Hradiv”. As a result, more than 10 people died and about 70 were injured.

However, another terrorist attack by Russia only rallied the people of Kherson – hundreds of people came to donate blood for the victims. Local resident Vitaly Bohdanov said that due to the huge number of people willing to help, the queue at the blood donation point stretched for several days.
