"There are more and more reports of increased pressure on people living in the occupied left-bank part. They complain that when the so-called DPR representatives station in the villages, they force civilians to dig trenches for them, they engage in looting and search for pro-Ukrainian residents," Khlan wrote.

As reported, the Armed Forces of Ukraine liberated the right-bank part of Kherson region, in particular the city of Kherson. Part of the region, located on the left bank of the Dnipro, is temporarily occupied by Russian troops.
