Civilians in the Russian-occupied region of Kherson have been asked to evacuate the area and go to Russia or Crimea.
Vladimir Saldo, the Kherson region's acting governor, asked Russian leaders on Thursday to arrange departures due to the threat of Ukraine’s counteroffensive, Russian state media TASS reported on Friday.
Kherson is one of four Ukrainian regions that Russian President Vladimir Putin is supposedly annexing against ardent opposition from Ukraine and governments around the world, which have characterized the land grab as a violation of international law.
