The so-called "evacuation" of local residents from the temporarily occupied territories of the Kherson region continues. As a feature, the evacuation of the civilian population from certain settlements of the left-bank part of the Kherson region was noted. According to the available information, since October 31 of the current year, the removal of collaborators with their families, medical personnel and equipment from the central district hospital has started from the settlement of Gornostaivka.

The occupying authorities gave local residents of the settlement of Nova Zburyivka 3 days to independently leave the occupied territory or the territory of the Russian Federation. The population is warned that "evacuation" will be mandatory from November 5.

On October 27 of this year, the occupying authorities began an "audit" of industrial solar power generation facilities. According to the work results, the occupiers threaten to confiscate and take away the equipment of enterprises whose owners are in the territory controlled by the Ukrainian authorities and refuse to return to the temporarily occupied territory.

According to detailed information, as a result of the successful actions of units of the Defense Forces in the Zaporizhzhia region, the occupiers delivered about a hundred seriously wounded to hospitals in the cities of Tokmak and Melitopol in the previous days.

In connection with the periodic deaths of collaborators and refusal to fulfill their duties, the enemy is holding contests to fill vacant positions in the bodies of the occupation authorities in the temporarily occupied territory of the Zaporizhzhia region.
