The invaders have intensified shelling of the Zaporizhzhia region with artillery and multiple rocket launchers, while collaborators and their families are leaving the temporarily occupied territory of the region.

Yuriy Malashko, the head of the Zaporizhzhia Regional Military District Administration, reported this on Telegram, according to Ukrinform.

"Collaborators and their families are leaving the occupied territories and calling on people who have received Russian passports to do the same. The occupiers are evacuating civilians, taking them to Russia through Crimea or the Donetsk region," the statement said.

According to Malashko, at the same time, the invaders increased the number of attacks on the Zaporizhzhia region with artillery and MLRS.
