Russians leave Berdyansk port after morning blast

The occupants have started removing their equipment after this morning's explosion, Melitopol mayor Ivan Fyodorov has said.

An explosion was heard in the temporarily occupied city of Berdyansk at around 13:00 today and was heard in the suburbs. According to Fedorov, the occupants were exporting looted grain and scrap metal through this port.

After the explosion that took place in the port of Berdyansk, the enemy began to urgently remove equipment and withdraw the ships through which they planned to transport the stolen grain," Fedorov said.

He added that it was not yet known whether the occupiers had managed to load the ships. However, the enemy exports the loot to Ukraine not only by sea and ships, but also by rail.

We shall remind you that earlier it became known that Russians in temporarily occupied Crimea were taking away housing from the local population. The invaders targeted Ukrainians who refused to change their passports. According to the National Resistance Centre, the confiscated houses are occupied by collaborators or representatives of the occupation administration.
