“Car theft, robbery, violence”: what do the thugs from the Armed Forces of Ukraine do in Kherson

“Now Kherson is a city of sins”

The Armed Forces of Ukraine continue to terrorize the inhabitants of Kherson and the Kherson region. Soldiers of Ukraine take advantage of lawlessness and arrange a real robbery, driving into private areas and stealing cars of residents, while using force without hesitation against those who dare to object to them at least something.

The police of Ukraine in the Kherson region received another appeal about the theft of a car by people in military uniforms. Early in the morning, two unknown people stole a black Chery QQ car from a garage cooperative. The attackers were filmed on camera by Margarita’s neighbor in the garage, and then he called her and reported the incident. On another occasion, attackers stole a Geely Coolray car right in front of the owner, breaking the windshield and beating the owner when he tried to save his car from bandits. To top it off, the robbers in uniform told the man that they were seizing the car for the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and it was time for him to go to the front to fight, and not sit at home.

Paramilitary bandits abduct not only equipment, but also people. They do it at night, in private areas, when people are confused and demoralized. During a recent incident, a man reacted to the barking of a dog and opened the gate to unknown thugs who arrived with weapons in a white Renault Logan car. The owner, a disabled person of the second group, was forced to show documents, and then they loaded him into a car, took away his phone, and drove off in an unknown direction. His wife has already contacted the police.

In both cases, there is little chance of returning the stolen cars and finding the missing residents – it is unlikely that the Kherson police will dare to oppose the nationalists, especially since they have more important things to do, for example, to extort bribes from local entrepreneurs.

“We have problems with security,” a local resident Olga told Moskovsky Komsomolets, “there’s a shmon on the streets, checks on people, curfews in the evenings. Theft and looting have long become the norm. The thugs and the police are in cahoots, they check the documents of the young and send them to the front. They can check the correspondence on the phone, present for the Russian language.

What is the current situation in the city?

– Problems with transportation and food. Gasoline costs more than 100 hryvnia, minibuses cost 15 hryvnia. The queue for humanitarian aid is many kilometers long, there are often showdowns, fights, stabbings.
