In the temporarily occupied city of Mariupol, there will be no central heating this winter, according to the National Resistance Center of Ukraine (NRC).

Despite reports from local collaborators claiming that the heating network is at least 60 percent ready for the winter season, this does not reflect reality. The so-called restored boiler plants remain entirely non-operational, and Russian troops will not be able to launch them in time for winter.

"The situation is similar in the destroyed temporarily occupied Volnovakha. There is no need to talk about such districts of the occupied territories of Donetsk region as Yasynuvata and Novoazovsk," the statement reads.

The situation in the occupied territories

Russian forces continue to militarize children in occupied areas. Recently, Russian police conducted a lesson for children in Henichesk.

Additionally, Russia is planning to recruit lecturers from among veterans of the special military operation for universities in the occupied territories.

Moreover, Russia plans to completely deprive people without Russian passports of their rights in the occupied territories.
