From 40 to 50% of doctors have left the occupied Melitopol. This was told by mayor of the city Ivan Fedorov in a video message to fellow countrymen.
According to him, doctors do not withstand the blackmail and onslaught of the occupiers and leave their workplaces.
Many people leave the city. Others simply do not come to work because they do not want to cooperate with the occupiers and collaborators.
"Today, from 40 to 50 percent of the medical staff have left Melitopol. The situation is approaching a humanitarian catastrophe. I want to focus on the fact that this is a full-fledged blockade of Melitopol, and the residents of the city have become hostages of the russian authorities and the top political leadership of the russian federation", - the mayor of Melitopol stated.
