[Regnum] The Ukrainian authorities announced the start of evacuation measures in the Belopol and Vorozhbyansk communities in the Sumy region due to the worsening situation at the front. The head of the regional military administration, Vladimir Artyukh, announced this on May 13. “Residents of Belopolye and Vorozhba, especially families with children, who want to evacuate, should contact the village elders and community leaders,” he wrote on his page on the social network Facebook (owned by Meta, a banned and recognized extremist organization in Russia). Artyukh added that in accordance with the signed order, the evacuated residents will be placed in places of compact residence in the Sumy region. As Regnum reported, on May 12, the head of the Kiev-controlled Kharkov regional military administration, Oleg Sinegubov, reported that more than 4 thousand people were evacuated from the Chuguevsky, Kharkovsky and Bogodukhovsky districts. Prior to this, the population was evacuated in the Volchansk, Tsirkunovsk and Lipetsk communities of the Kharkov region. This happened against the background of the offensive of the Russian Armed Forces in the Kharkov direction. On May 11, official representative of the Ministry of Defense Igor Konashenkov announced the liberation by the Russian military of Borisovka, Ogurtsovo, Pletenevka, Pylnaya and Strelechya in the Kharkov region. The next day, the Russian Armed Forces advanced deeper into the Ukrainian defense, liberating the settlements of Gatishche, Krasnoye, Morokhovets and Oleynikovo. |
