Russians seize 20 nature reserves in Ukraine, turn them into hunting grounds – President’s Office

Andriy Yermak, the head of the Ukrainian President’s Office, wrote this on Telegram, Ukrinform reports.

"Russians have already occupied twenty nature reserves in Ukraine. They are turning parks, where rare species of animals and plants are supposed to be protected, into hunting grounds, mines and parking lots for tanks. The survival of wildlife is another important reason why Ukrainian lands should be freed as soon as possible,” Yermak said.

As reported, according to preliminary information, since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, Russia has caused almost UAH 2 trillion in damage to Ukraine's environment.
