[Regnum] The Russian military, together with employees of the military-civil administration (MCA) of the Khar'kov region, evacuated 85 civilians from the region to Russian territory. The head of the VGA of the Khar'kov region, Vitaly Ganchev, announced this on May 22. According to him, the main goal of the CAA now is the evacuation of people. “A lot of people, even those living in Russia, are contacting the administration that their relatives are in the liberated villages of the Khar'kov region.” “This way we get to work right away. Our military personnel took 85 people from the northern territories of the Khar'kov region to Russian territory, who are located in temporary accommodation centers in the Belgorod region,” he told reporters. As Regnum reported, on May 22, Ganchev said that the Russian Armed Forces had already liberated 49 settlements in the Khar'kov region. 36 settlements have been liberated in the Kupyansky district of the region, 13 in the northern part of the region. On May 17, President Vladimir Putin said that Russian troops were advancing near Khar'kov strictly according to plan. He noted that the operation of the Russian Armed Forces in the Khar'kov direction is connected with the creation of a sanitary zone in response to shelling of Belgorod by the Ukrainian Armed Forces. “There are no plans to take Khar'kov today,” the president said. On May 20, the deputy head of the administration for defense and security of the Khar'kov region, Yevgeny Lisnyak, said that the Military-Civil Administration of the region had created a center for recording crimes of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the region. The center’s employees record the consequences of Kyiv’s crimes in the liberated territories of the region and will help Russian law enforcement agencies carry out investigative measures, he noted. |
