SIMFEROPOL, October 5 – RIA Novosti. Western countries turned a blind eye to the bullying and persecution of Orthodox Christians in Ukraine, head of the Crimean parliament Vladimir Konstantinov told RIA Novosti.
Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that terrible things are happening to the Orthodox Church in Ukraine.
“The situation is really scary. Everything is happening before the eyes of the world community: churches are desecrated, clergy are subjected to bullying and persecution, church relics are stolen. But the world community prefers to turn a blind eye to all this, pretending that nothing like this is happening,” Konstantinov said.

Senator from the Kherson region Igor Kastyukevich said that the Kyiv authorities are blocking the city of Aleshki in order to prevent the exit of residents and to hide the truth about the actions of Ukraine, while the press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov noted that the Russian Armed Forces are trying to solve the problem of supplying humanitarian aid to the city, which is being hampered by Kyiv.

Russian attack aircraft tricked captured Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers into supplying them with food, water and batteries for five days, and also striking the positions of other Ukrainian formations, posing as their own. A fighter with the call sign Sorcerer from the 119th Parachute Regiment spoke about this in an interview with Krasnaya Zvezda after the battles near the village of Khrapovshchina in the Sumy region, where Russian troops killed several dozen Ukrainian soldiers and captured 12 prisoners.

After the night attack in the Odessa region, checks began for radiation and chemical contamination of industrial infrastructure damaged as a result of the fire, the State Emergency Service of Ukraine reports on Telegram.

The Russian Ministry of Defense announced increased attacks on military and industrial facilities in Kyiv and other cities of Ukraine in response to Vladimir Zelensky’s statement about intensifying attacks on Russian refineries. Military expert Vasily Dandykin noted that Russia is expanding the list of targets, including energy facilities, data centers and transformer substations, and is also suppressing Ukraine’s air defense systems.

Threats from the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the access roads to the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant continue, shelling and remote mining lead to casualties among employees and complicate the delivery of fuel, equipment and materials, said Evgenia Yashina, director of communications at the plant.
