Ukrainians who find themselves in the temporarily occupied territories of the Zaporozhye region want to get into cities controlled by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. However, the Russian invaders are trying to cash in on them – the enemies demand up to 5,000 hryvnias for permission to leave Melitopol.

Besides, the Russians do not let cars with humanitarian aid pass without a bribe. They demand tens of thousands of hryvnias for this.

Russians do not let civilians leave the occupied territories without a bribe

In the Zaporizhia OVA, they said that Russian infidels are trying to make money on the civilians of Melitopol. At the same time, they threaten with civilian weapons.

From Melitopol residents who want to leave the city, the Russian military demands from 3,000 to 5,000 hryvnias at checkpoints. Those who do not have that kind of money are doomed to be held hostage by Russian terrorists, in conditions of unemployment, shortages and terror. – the message says.

At the same time, for several days now there has been no possibility of leaving in the direction of the regional center not only from Melitopol, but also from Energodar. At their checkpoint in Vasilievka, for unknown reasons, the enemies do not allow any road transport to pass. There was a queue of more than 400 cars.

In addition, a car is expected from Zaporozhye, including humanitarian aid for residents of the temporarily occupied territories of the region.

“Transport is also blocked by the Russian military. According to messages on social networks, you can only get through by paying a bribe, the amount of which is from 20,000 to 40,000 hryvnia,” the OVA added.

Briefly about the situation in Zaporozhye

• In the temporarily occupied territories, Russian infidels continue to carry out activities of the administrative-police regime. In particular, in Zaporozhye and the Kherson region, the invaders created 19 so-called “commandant's offices”.
• At the same time, while communicating with the inhabitants of Vodyanoye, the Russians do not hide the fact that they will retreat. However, the infidels also threaten to destroy the village during this.
• In turn, the local residents of Vasilievka said that the number of invaders in the city had already exceeded the number of civilians. The Russians, as always, are robbing peaceful Ukrainians. Infidels take everything they like from houses.
• In Melitopol, the Russian military ran over a passenger car for fun, in the cabin of which a woman was squeezed. Luckily, she survived but ended up in the hospital. But the Russians traditionally deny their involvement in this event.

5 defense enterprises of Ukraine are under the control of Russian invaders/Ukroboronprom

It turned out that the Russians captured and control five enterprises of the Ukroboronprom Concern. The occupiers either completely destroyed the personnel documentation, or simply cut off access to it.

Now Ukroboronprom is restoring lost information about employees of enterprises who ended up either in temporarily occupied territories or suffered as a result of devastating missile strikes.

The Concern will offer such employees work at other facilities of the state defense industry and take care of the payment of material assistance.< /p>

To date, 5 enterprises of the Concern have been captured by the invaders, personnel documentation has either been completely destroyed, or there is no access to it, Ukroboronprom reported.

The department also reported that the Concern is exacerbating agreements with partner countries at the political level . We are talking about cooperation in all types of heavy weapons: armored vehicles, air defense and missile defense systems, high-precision weapons.

Pay attention:Ukroboronprom is ready to pay a $1,000,000 premium for a hijacked or captured enemy aircraft, and $500,000 for a captured helicopter. Russian pilots who are ready to take part in the program are guaranteed the issuance of Ukrainian citizenship.

Ukrainian non-military business has taken a military footing

During 3 months of a full-scale war between Russia and Ukraine, enterprises , producing civilian products, also switched to a military footing. Now the Ukrainian non-military business produces the necessary components, components and assemblies, supplies materials and masters the production of various components for weapons and military equipment and special equipment.

Meanwhile, Russia continues to launch missile strikes against Ukroboronprom facilities. Earlier it was reported that the damage to our defense complex is at least 100 billion hryvnia.

Unfortunately, sometimes this leads to losses among the employees of the concern, who daily strengthen the defense capability of our country. On May 5, President Volodymyr Zelensky awarded the Order “For Courage” III level to 16 employees of the concern's enterprises. Unfortunately, 5 of these people received awards posthumously.

But Ukrainians continue to amaze with courage. In total, at the beginning of May, more than 12 thousand people responded to the vacancies announced by the concern. More than a thousand of them have already been employed.

How Ukroboronprom works during a full-scale war

• Ukrainian defenders managed to capture many Russian military equipment. Some of them are unharmed, so they almost immediately go to the front to help the Ukrainian defenders. Damaged Russian equipment is being repaired by employees of Ukroboronprom.
• As of May 12, the total value of all captured enemy equipment reaches 1.5 billion hryvnia. Captured tanks, self-propelled guns and other vehicles have long been helping in the fight against the invaders.
• In the first month of Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine alone, Ukroboronprom manufactured and modernized more equipment than in the whole of 2021. Now the Concern's employees work in 3 shifts. Where and how, of course, is not disclosed, but it is known that there are also traveling mobile brigades.

Arestovich spoke about the situation at the front/Collage of Channel 24

Aleksey Arestovich stated that the Russian invaders were trying to cross the river near the city of Seversk. It is located to the west of Belogorovka, where the enemies have already been defeated.

Aleksei Arestovich, Advisor to the Head of the President's Office, reported the relevant information on May 23. That is, on the 89th day of the full-scale war that Russia launched against Ukraine.

The invaders want to cross the river near Seversk

Aleksey Arestovich said that the city of Seversk is almost on the border of Donetsk and Luhansk area and is located to the west near the famous crossing in Belogorovka.

They are trying to make another crossing in order to solve the same problem as closing off from the North and Severodonetsk and moving into the encirclement,” Arestovich explained.

Yermak’s adviser explained that this was a similar maneuver that the infidels were doing to try go from Belogorovka to Popasnaya and “lock” it from the east. However, the enemy is trying to carry out this operation closer to the settlement of Liman.

The Russians have deployed additional forces to the north of Kharkiv region

Aleksey Arestovich also said that the Russians brought additional forces to the north of the Kharkiv region and Izyum. All in order to prevent the Armed Forces of Ukraine from going to another direction.

In particular, the enemy is afraid to let our troops through in the direction of Volchansk. After all, there our defenders can cut off the offensive forces of the enemy.

In addition, the invaders tried to take the village of Rubizhne in the Volchansky district of the Kharkiv region. The enemy did not succeed, but he created “troubles” for the Ukrainian army. Therefore, the counteroffensive to the East slowed down somewhat.

What is known about the defeat of the enemy in Belogorovka

• The defeat of the enemy by our army in Belogorovka has already been called the second Chernobaevka.
• On May 11, Russian invaders tried to cross the Seversky Donets River. The Armed Forces of Ukraine there attacked the enemy, who was trying to cross the pontoon crossings.
• As of May 12, near the village of Belogorovka in the Luhansk region, the Russians lost 73 pieces of military equipment in 4 days.
• Head of the Luhansk region OVA Sergei Gaidai said that Russian infidels intend to break into Severodonetsk and completely capture Rubizhne.
• According to the official, the enemies are trying to cut off the Luhansk region from the “mainland” by taking control of the Lisichansk-Bakhmut highway. He added that the key word is “trying”.
• The Institute for the Study of War said that during this failed operation for the enemy, 485 Russian soldiers were killed or injured, more than 80 pieces of equipment were destroyed. Enemy losses are among the largest since the beginning of the war.

Arestovich spoke about the situation in the Kherson region and Zaporozhye/Collage of Channel 24

In the temporarily occupied territories of Zaporozhye and Kherson region, Russian invaders are trying to accumulate forces. In particular, 3 enemy BTGs arrived in Vasilyevka and will try to move to the north of the region.

Aleksey Arestovich, adviser to the head of the President's Office, stated this on the air of the YouTube channel “FEIGIN LIVE”. He noted that these BTGs would probably leave for Zaporozhye.

The Russians are concentrating forces in Zaporozhye and Kherson region

Arestovich said that at the site Pologi – Orekhovo Russian infidels are trying to move and create groups, while pressing Malinovka to divert the attention of Ukrainian fighters. They plan to move forward and bypass the birth on the other side.

“Here we have saved up a little. Several more tactical groups have approached and now they are preparing for a small, pretty offensive,” the adviser to the head of the Presidential Office added. As many as 3 Russian battalion tactical groups “jumped” around.

As the locals wrote to their relatives, for the first time there were more civilians in the Russian military. They walk like clouds, plunder everything, steal, as usual. However, that's not the point. They are preparing to move north – to Zaporozhye, – said Arestovich.

He noted that at the same time, on the right-bank part of the Kherson region, the invaders were creating a helicopter group. They even somewhere even fly and shoot. However, our military cannot understand where. After all, there are no units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine where the infidels shoot. Despite this, enemy helicopters continue to fly and attack something.

“And everyone is lost in questions with whom they are fighting there. Perhaps with themselves? Well, but I do not rule out that the helicopter pilots are simply sabotaging, they do not want to fly to our positions. They move a little forward, strike and say: “That's it, we shot back, hit, and leave us alone.” After all, they are burning very steadfastly, and they do not want to do this“, – added the adviser to the head of the OP.

He added what exactly this is now happening in Zaporozhye and the Kherson region. However, the question arises – is it a strengthening of the defense or an attempt to attack more?

“This is a big question. However, I think an attempt to attack there is hopeless for them“, – said the adviser to the head of the OP.< /p>

Arestovich summed up that, in general, at the front there is a strange combination of activation in the north of Kharkiv region, increased pressure on the Donetsk direction and continued preparations for pressure on Kramatorsk – Slavyansk and Zaporozhye. The only difference from the past days is that the invaders are now pulling up their forces and trying to attack somewhere. According to him, it is obvious that the next few days will be desperate attempts by the Russians to break through Severodonetsk and advance towards Gulyai-Pole.

Ukrposhta will issue a “Mriya” stamp in June/Ukrposhta

It will be necessary to think about how the solemn extinguishing will be with Patron, maybe there is a quote there so that he puts a seal. It will be the next 2-3 stamps, – said Smelyansky.

When will the stamp with the winners of Eurovision be released

Recall that after Ukraine took first place in the Eurovision Song Contest, Ukrposhta promised to issue a stamp dedicated to the winners of the contest – the Kalush band. It should be noted that at one time Ukrposhta issued such stamps with Ruslana and Jamala, which brought the winning Eurovision Cup to Ukraine.

Igor Smilyansky said that the Ukrposhta team is working with the Kalush group and with the Eurovision organizers. He noted that European institutions are taking longer to arrange all intellectual property rights. But Smelyansky is convinced that Ukrainians will be able to purchase the stamp in a few months. Earlier, he reported that the Kalush brand will be released out of turn immediately, when everything is agreed with the organizers of the Eurovision Song Contest.

• On May 23, Ukrposhta opened for the sale of the second series of stamps about the Russian warship, that is, the Russian cruiser Moskva, which went to the bottom to feed the fish.

• There are even more people who want to buy this stamp than the first stamp with the famous phrase of the Ukrainian border guard – “Russian military ship – go fuck yourself.” In different cities near Ukrposhta, kilometer-long queues formed in the morning, although sales opened at 14:00.
• Due to the insane demand, everyone can purchase no more than 2 sheets of stamps, 5 envelopes and postcards.

However, according to Arestovich, the Russians managed to create “troubles” for the Ukrainian Armed Forces, so the counteroffensive to the East slowed down somewhat. Braked. But they created trouble for us, now we are forced to return in order to stop this threat, so the offensive to the East has become problematic for us. – Aleksey Arestovich said.

Kafirs are trying to gain a foothold near Izyum

An adviser to the head of the President's Office said that to the west of Izyum, the Russian command began to create a clipping flank. The Russians are afraid that the Armed Forces of Ukraine will again strike at the Izyum grouping, so the enemy is adding troops and a tank battalion along the front line to create a solid defense and the ability to counterattack the Ukrainian defenders.
