The invaders are setting up concrete structures, the so-called "dragon's teeth", on the streets of Melitopol town, Zaporizhzhia region, probably in preparation for street battles.

"Ruscists are placing concrete cones in the very center of Melitopol, which is still occupied, for the second day already. Probably, over the past week, the occupiers got so frightened that they are already preparing for street battles. ... ‘Dragon's teeth’ are placed closer to civilians – in the middle of central streets and residential neighborhoods," Melitopol Mayor Ivan Fedorov posted on Telegram.

Fedorov published a photo of such concrete structures in the middle of the street.
