" There Is a Lack of Basic Products, There Is No Basic Security" – Zelenskyi About Life in the Districts Temporarily Occupied by Russian Troops

Meanwhile, in the occupied areas, either a humanitarian catastrophe has already occurred or there is very little time left before it occurs.

This statement was made by Volodymyr Zelenskyi, the President of Ukraine, on April 25th. 

" The Armed Forces of Ukraine are deterring attacks by Russian troops in key areas. In the Kharkiv region - in the Izium direction, in Donbas - especially near Popasna, in Mariupol where the resistance of the city's defenders continues, in the southern areas, where the occupiers are trying to go on the offensive", Zelenskyi said.

He also reminded that this morning the missile threat air alarms were heard again almost all over our country, including Vinnytsia, Rivne, Lviv, and Odesa regions. 

"Russia does not stop trying to break our resistance to... Achieve what? In the occupied areas, either a humanitarian catastrophe has already occurred or there is very little time left before it occurs. There is a lack of basic products, there is a lack of medicines. People do not have the means to live normally, there is no basic security. They don’t have everything they had before February 24. What Donetsk and Luhansk had before 2014. Everything that we will definitely return after the liberation of our land", the President emphasized.
