The situation is the same in the area of Melitopol. Our Armed Forces have already advanced more than 10 kilometres from Zaporizhzhia toward Melitopol".

The mayor of Melitopol also said that Russians continue to abduct people, including pastors and activists, not realising that "99.9% of people do not support them."
