"If we take only TOT Zaporizhzhia, more than 1000 residents are currently in captivity. But we don't know the fate of everyone for sure, because the enemy often hides where our residents are, who is taken captive. And only about some of them we know how and what happened to them. Usually, we learn about it from relatives, friends, those who find our people in the TOT in the "non-law enforcement" fictitious structures of the russian federation", he said.
He emphasized that the priority of local authorities and law enforcement agencies is to collect information about those who cooperated with the enemy.
The authorities are cooperating with the SBU, the National Police, and the prosecutor's office to document all crimes of collaboration and bring all collaborators to justice, both in absentia and in person, those who can be found on the territory controlled by Ukraine.
According to Fedorov, the invaders on the TOT of Zaporizhzhia have intensified filtration measures and conscription.
"Therefore, we call for people to leave the TOT to protect themselves. The ways to leave are either through the temporarily occupied Crimea, which is the way TOT residents often choose, and then go to Georgia or European countries. Either they leave through the Kolotylivka crossing point, or they go through Berdiansk, Mariupol, Novoazovsk to the territory of the russian federation and then leave through the EU or Georgia. Of course, no one can guarantee that this will be a safe way, but it is currently in effect", he said.
- Around the world, actions were held to commemorate the mass execution of Ukrainian prisoners of war in Olenivka and those who are still in captivity. The events took place in different countries around the world for a month. The participants wanted to remind foreigners of the inhumane conditions in which the surviving soldiers are being held and to emphasize the need to bring the victims of the terrorist attack home as soon as possible. Eleven countries joined the month of actions. In some countries, several large cities participated at once.
