Сибіга: «Росіяни намагаються перетворити Олешки на смертельну пастку»
About 1 700 people still remain blocked in the destroyed city of Oleshki in the Kherson region, and Russia is trying to turn this settlement into a deadly trap.
As the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Андрій Сибіга wrote, the only road that you can leave, replaced and it is monitored by shock drones. Those who are trying to escape risk dying. A river is replaced and located nearby. Residents doubt that they will be able to survive this winter.
«У лікарні закінчилися ліки. Десятки тіл лежать на вулицях і в будинках, адже росіяни забороняють мешканцям ховати померлих. Сім’ї голодують, виживаючи завдяки залишкам городини, домашнім заготівлям і навіть равликам. За словами мешканців, російські військові погрожували їм зброєю, вимагаючи віддати харчі», the Ukrainian diplomat said.
He noted that Ukraine has repeatedly called for safe evacuation and international humanitarian access. These calls cannot remain unanswered.
The Minister called on ООН, МКЧХ and all partners to use all available channels to ensure safe evacuation corridors and immediate access for humanitarian aid to Olesok, stressing that Russia must stop obstructing efforts to rescue civilians.
Separately, he thanked Папі Римському Леву XIV for his call for Putin to declare a ceasefire in Oleshki so that humanitarian aid could be delivered to the city.
