Quote: "The occupiers in Kherson Oblast are repairing damaged bridges, trying to restore interrupted ammunition and heavy equipment supply routes.

The quality of the work and whether it is safe to use the bridges remain very questionable, because everything is being done ‘as quickly as possible’, and specialists carrying out the repair works are forced to do so at gunpoint.

Details: Sobolevskyi also wrote that the occupiers have organised a "real hunt for our patriots" in Kherson Oblast.

On 23 July, Russians forces carried out a raid in Nizhny Sirohozy, going from house to house, checking passports, and technical licences for vehicles, and recording car plates.

"Constant filtering measures throughout the territory of the region are explained by the fact that the resistance movement in Kherson Oblast will not reduce its activity, and the population refuses to rejoice in the forcible absorption into the swamp of ‘Russian world’ [Russkiy mir, literally "Russian world" or "Russian order," is the concept of total domination of Russian culture over other cultures; it gives rise to and "legitimises" Russia’s current expansionist, colonial politics - ed.]," the official explained.
