In the Russian occupied Crimean cities of Armiansk, Krasnoperekopsk and Dzhankoy, hospitals are overfilled with wounded Russian soldiers, according to the President's Representative Office in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea.

"In each [above-mentioned] city there are about 1,000-1,500 wounded. These hospitals accept only the military, civilians are forced to turn to either private clinics or go to Simferopol,” the Center for Counteracting Disinformation wrote on Telegram.

As Ukrinform reported, the enemy began to actively recruit men in Crimea for the war against Ukraine as part of various units of the Russian army. Earlier, it was reported that Russia had blocked the exit from the territory of temporarily occupied Crimea and imposed restrictions on entry.

On February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin declared war on Ukraine and launched a large-scale invasion. Russian troops have been shelling and destroying key infrastructure. Missiles hit residential buildings.

Martial law was imposed in Ukraine and general mobilization was announced.

Ukraine officially filed a lawsuit against the Russian Federation with the UN International Court of Justice in The Hague.
