< strong _ngcontent-sc88="">Unfortunately, Russian infidels quite often resort to torturing locals in the temporarily occupied territories. The reason for such brutal actions is that the locals refuse to cooperate with the invaders.
This was told to Channel 24 by the adviser to the head of the Kherson Regional Military District and a soldier of the territorial defense Serhiy Khlan. He also noted that the body of a civilian was found in Kakhovka, who had recently been abducted – death was caused by a gunshot wound, and the victim was found in the forest near the city.
“Russians constantly persuade locals to collaborate and if they hear a refusal , people are often kidnapped and tortured,” says Hlan.
According to the serviceman, the head of the Kherson Regional State Administration Andrei Putilov is still in hostile captivity, he was reproached for being involved in shutting off water to the Crimea and forced to agree to a position in the occupation authorities. -markup”> Invaders are looking for famous people or employees of critical enterprises and try to win them over to their side. People are forced to be collaborators, and if someone refuses, they are tortured,” Khlan notes.
“I have always said and continue to say – it’s better to leave the occupied Kherson region, it’s worth leaving. After all, giving in to such great risks every day and living in the occupied territory is very difficult. There are not enough medicines in the region, a humanitarian crisis, constant persecution,” recommends OVA .
No one can feel protected, says Sergiy Khlan, because they persecute activists, public figures and just civilians.
