It will be harder to leave: occupiers create a filtration post in Vasylivka
According to the mayor, many citizens of Ukraine from temporarily occupied territories, including the residents of Energodar, go through Vasylivka. There are big queues at the checkpoint, and now it will be even harder to leave. "Already the whole world knows how heavy, long-lasting and unpredictable this road is. Especially its segment of the Vasylivka Dokry, where the occupiers artificially hold hundreds of cars with civilians, passing only their limited number a day," Orlov wrote in Telegram.
He also added that the invaders plan to create online registration for departure. However, Ukrainians will be checked. Recall that Russian invaders are forcibly holding up to 1. 6 million Ukrainians in their territory. The US State Department states that Ukrainian citizens are passing through filtration points. They forcefully take passports of Ukraine and issue Russian documents.
Washington urges Moscow to immediately stop systematic filtration operations and forced deportations of Ukrainians in the controlled of the Russian Federation of Ukraine, as this is a serious violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention for the Protection of Civilian Population and is a war crime. Earlier, we reported that the Ukrainians called on to go from the Kherson region to facilitate the work of the Armed Forces.
