“Information from Chongar Genichesk district of Kherson region. There was a conflict between the residents and the Tatar Islyamov battalion, which are rampaging through this region. Residents reported that there was a shootout, 1 person was killed, 1 was injured. The head of the regional police department went to the scene of the incident.
Eyewitnesses say that the lawless men from the Tatar battalion began harassing passers-by. One of them was beaten. As a result, the victims called the National Guard, and the National Guard stood up for the victims. Someone from the Islyamov battalion took out a machine gun and opened fire.
Now, as people say, they have left Dnepropetrovsk for reinforcements. Rumor has it that they are from the “right sector”. At the moment, the road is blocked by unknown armed people, and shooting can be heard. People are scared. It feels like fighting has begun.
Earlier, I gave information that the “right sector” and the Islyamov battalion united at these checkpoints to continue the blockade of Crimea. Here are their results of the so-called blockade. Civilians continue to suffer,” Zhuravko wrote.
