Russian occupants are going to evict an entire village near Mariupol to build a military base


Seven families live in the village. Mostly pensioners, but there are a few families who moved there from Mariupol.
This was reported on the Telegram of Pyotr Andryushchenko, adviser to Mariupol mayor.
According to Andryushchenko, the occupants in Mariupol district decided to evict an entire village in order to set up a base for the Russian military there. The village is located in the forest and not far from the main location of the Russian troops in Nikolskoye.
The village of Lesnoe is located near the Nikolskoye village right in the middle of the forest. It is very convenient for the deployment of military personnel. Firstly, in the middle of the forest away from prying eyes. Secondly, it is close to the main location of the occupants in Nikolskoye itself.
A local collaborator helps the occupants in their eviction.
There are 7 families living in the village. Most of them are pensioners, but there are several families who moved there from Mariupol.
