Russia cuts food supply to occupied Zaporizhzhia region to make people ‘evacuate’ 

The head of the Zaporizhzhia regional military administration, Yuriy Malashko, shared the information with Espreso TV.

"There is information about Russians looting in the occupied territories - they take everything they can. There are certain special measures that they create. For example, they do not bring food to the settlements, bread. They just force people to "evacuate.” There are cases when they "evacuate" people to Berdiansk and leave them to their fate. Many of these people simply return - when they arrive, there is nothing in the house, everything is looted. There are such facts," he said.

• Earlier, people "evacuated" by Russians from the frontline towns of the Zaporizhzhia region were banned from returning home.
