"Collaborators". Five Melitopol Melyitopol's questions about what the guerrillas are capable of and how the occupiers will flee
How do the actions of the guerrillas adjust the actions of the invaders? Video of the day - resistance in the territory of Melitopol, as well as the rest of the Zaporizhzhya region began from February 24, from the first days of occupation and a full -scale invasion of Russia into the territory of Ukraine. Then it was a public resistance, today - a guerrilla. There are basic tasks that are performed by the guerrillas.
First of all, it is an overlap of the supply of weapons, ammunition and their elimination. The second is to inform our security forces, the Armed Forces of Ukraine on location, movement and so on. And the third is the demotivation of collaborators and invaders. And, of course, we see the results. After, for example, the headquarters of the [party] of a single Russia in Melitopol was destroyed, then it and its members of this headquarters were no longer in the city.
After the back was detached, as you said correctly, one of the key collaborators, I know that several collaborators now think how to run from the city, because the guerrillas have clearly announced hunting for those who will promote the referendum. We expect that in the near future some actions of the guerrilla movement will be taken, which will interfere with the departure of collaborators outside Melitopol.
- Galina's collaborator has not appeared lately at all, even trying to abandon her high position. Do you know something about her? - I know everything about her, as everything knows our Armed Forces, to our guerrillas. Today, it continues not to appear among the inhabitants, not to communicate with the inhabitants of Melitopol. Today, she only records some video for propaganda media and hides outside the city, but well known where. Her path is clearly clear. These are two options.
The first - it will be responsible for Ukrainian law and sit in prison with confiscation of property for treason. But this will be happiness for her, because her other path is eliminated by the power structures of the enemy - the Russian Federation. - You told our colleagues that those collaborators who are afraid of the Ukrainian contraint in Kherson region flee to Melitopol. I realized that they view the city as a calm harbor.
Do they not understand something about Melitopol? How do you explain their actions? - I said a little differently: it is not about a calm harbor, but that Melitopol (historically and geographically so happened) is the center of southern Ukraine - Zaporizhzhya and Kherson regions. It is a logistics knot, through which [there is] the movement of equipment and the supply of ammunition. Today it is also an administrative center that the invaders made.
So today, when they run away from the right bank of the Dnieper River, they move towards the city of Melitopol, and of course they think about the waste paths, how to escape to the Crimea. And from Melitopol to the border with Crimea just less than 100 km. So today they view Melitopol as a logistics center. And for us, for our Armed Forces, of course, Melitopol is fundamental, because it is the key to the entire south of our country.
Without the release of Melitopol, it is impossible to liberate the South of our country as a whole. - The invaders can escape from the right bank of the Dnieper, the Armed Forces do a lot. Again there were blows on the Antonov Bridge. This creates even more for them, because they cannot restore, for example, the supply of weapons there. But we understand that it is mostly about Kherson.
What do you see actions to release Melitopol? - I clearly understand that from the inside of Melitopol there is resistance and 95% of residents are waiting for our Armed Forces today. Of course, I have no right to say how Melitopol will be released when, because it is the competence of our Armed Forces. Our task is that everyone in its place should help in the realization of [this purpose], and to fulfill those tasks that are given to our Armed Forces and the highest political leadership.
Of course, there are several ways of de -occupation of Melitopol. I am sure that one of them will lead to a full -fledged south of Ukraine. But our task today is to contact our residents, to convey true information to them, because they are in an information vacuum. The enemy does not even expect what public resistance, as at the beginning of the second wave, the invasion of February 24 will begin inside the city.
The offensive on the city, the liberation of the city will be not only the Armed Forces, but also from the inside by our civilian residents, who are now in Melitopol. - Over time, we will learn a little more about how the occupiers managed to go south so easily. For example, DBR published suspicion of Oleg Kulinich. He was the head of the SBU management in Crimea. It is reported that he was one of those who hid information about the possible invasion of Russians by Crimea.
As for Melitopol's power agencies, perhaps the SBU, do you know about those who could cooperate with the occupiers there? - The rapid admiration of Melitopol happened because the enemy troops went quickly and came from the Crimea. We clearly understand this and hearing this from every citizen of our country. It is not the territory of Zaporizhzhya region, but Kherson, so responsibility is mostly on the special services that controlled the Kherson region directly.
Regarding the special services of Zaporizhzhya region. President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky also drew attention to this during meetings held in Zaporozhye. All special services that worked in the territory of Melitopol have executed the order and continue to execute it to this day, according to those teams, orders coming from the central apparatus.
