A translation account relays a statement by Ukrainian Ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets, who said civilians in the occupied settlement of Oleshky are leaving on bicycles, mopeds and on foot along mined routes, amid a complete lack of food, clean water and medicine. The post does not say which oblast or which Oleshky is meant, does not give a date for the departures, and does not quantify how many people have left. The claim is the ombudsman's as relayed by the posting account.
