Details: He also said that 70 people, including 12 children, were taken to Russia from the filtration point in the urban settlement of Nikolske, and 175 people were deported from the filtration point in the village of Bezimianne, including 17 children.

Andriushchenko noted that direct deportation from Nikolske to Russia may be connected with the actual closure of the evacuation route to Zaporizhzhia.
