Quote: "Russian military personnel loot people’s houses and take stolen goods away [presumably to Russia - ed.] in [the city of] Kherson and [Kherson] Oblast. This has happened on Shevchenko Street in the Oblast’s administrative centre [the city of Kherson - ed.].

The occupiers looted the houses whose owners left for Ukraine-controlled territory in the villages of Krasnosilske, Novodmytrivka and Stanislav in [Kherson] Oblast. Military personnel of the aggressor country [Russia - ed.] used cars they had also stolen to transport the stolen furniture and appliances."

Details: Over the past 24 hours, Ukrainian police officers have opened 15 criminal proceedings regarding war crimes committed by Russian military personnel and their collaborators in Kherson Oblast.

In the city of Kherson, Russian security forces detained a man and a woman; their whereabouts are still unknown.

Ukrainian police have also caught a collaborator who voluntarily assumed the position of the "head of the district military-civilian administration". The man took part in the Together With Russia forum, during which he publicly called on local residents to take part in the illegal "referendum" [which is being organised by Russia - ed.] the goal of which was to merge the Russian-occupied territory of Kherson Oblast with the Russian Federation. The man was waving a red flag, a replica of the USSR flag.

Previously: On 30 August, local media reported that a large queue of trucks loaded with products stolen from Ukraine had formed as the Russian occupiers stole this year’s harvest from the occupied territories in southern Ukraine.

In March, during the temporary occupation of Kyiv Oblast, Russian forces similarly looted the homes of Ukrainian citizens.
