Hundreds of locals went to a pro-Ukrainian rally, carrying blue and yellow symbols, in the occupied town of Berdyansk, Zaporizhzhia region. The Russian military dispersed the people, began beating and detaining them.

As Ukrinform reports with reference to social media, Russian soldiers detained pro-Ukrainian protesters and used physical force. Shots were fired in the street.

It also became known that Russian invaders kidnapped activist Tetiana Typakova, an active participant in anti-occupation rallies. She was abducted from her own home. Now she, as well as other public figures – Vitaliy Shevchenko and Volodymyr Sushko – are held captive.

As reported, the invaders kidnapped first deputy mayor of Enerhodar Ivan Samoydiuk. A rally in support of him was held in the town today. People say they will gather every day until the enemy releases Samoydiuk.
