Anti-Russian protests have been held in Kherson daily since the Russian troops seized the city.
In front of the building of the regional state administration there is Russian military equipment. The railway station and the seaport are under Russian control.
Kherson Mayor Igor Kolikhayev said that Russian troops are not allowing trucks carrying humanitarian aid into the city.
At the same time, the Russians failed to shoot a video in which Kherson residents "happily" meet the occupiers and accept humanitarian aid from the enemy. Ukrainians went to the city with Ukrainian flags and refused to accept goods from the Russians.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy thanked the proud Ukrainians who have found themselves occupied but have not betrayed the interests of the state and who have showed the enemy what pride and self-respect are.
