Russian invaders kidnapped the first deputy mayor of Enerhodar, Zaporizhia region, Ivan Samoidiuk.
Mayor of Enerhodar Dmytro Orlov wrote about this on his Telegram channel, Ukrainian News Agency reports.
"The occupiers, who did not get any cooperation from the city authorities, went to outright criminal actions. The first deputy mayor Ivan Samoidiuk was kidnapped! We don't know what condition he is in! He has not been in contact since yesterday. And today we received confirmed information that that he was cynically kidnapped," he wrote.
Orlov noted that the invaders also began to exert physical and psychological pressure on the residents of Enerhodar, who were active in their public activities.
In particular, they continue to look for those Enerhodar residents whose principled position they see as a threat.
