In Mariupol, there is a movement of occupying forces towards Zaporizhzhya

This was reported on Telegram by Petro Andryushchenko, the former advisor to the Mariupol mayor.

"We are recording the redeployment of military equipment and manpower from the Donetsk direction towards Rozivka/Polohy (Zaporizhzhya region). In particular, at least 5 new self-propelled artillery units (seemingly freshly manufactured), and several tanks of different modifications in the area of the village of Kasyanivka north of Mariupol along the Mariupol-Volnovakha-Donetsk highway," read Andryushchenko’s post.

He released a corresponding video showing the movement of Russian military equipment.

The former official also noted that simultaneously there is an increase in the presence of the Russian National Guard units, with accommodation at the Ilyich plant in Mariupol.

Andryushchenko suggested that this proves once again the final stage of preparations for the start of offensive actions in the Zaporizhzhya region in the Polohy-Rozivka zone section.
