“Now we have this trend that people are leaving. People agree to a voluntary temporary evacuation. Yesterday, 250 people left, even a little more. The day before yesterday – 150. This is an approximate amount. People leave every day. But we see only people who agreed to a voluntary evacuation and turned to the military administration. There are also people who leave on their own. We do not see this until people come to another region and register as an IDP,” Sobolevsky said.

At the same time, he stresses that the situation with evacuation remains very difficult. Because after the de-occupation of the right-bank part of the Kherson region, a large number of people wanted to return, despite all the risks.
Sobolevsky added that local authorities emphasize that it is too early to return to the region due to the security situation, and urge residents of the region to evacuate.
Supplement
Over the past day, December 25, Russian troops shelled the Kherson region 33 times, without civilian casualties.
