The situation with drinking water in the temporarily occupied Sievierodonetsk has worsened with the summer increase in air temperature.

Roman Vlasenko, the head of the Severodonetsk District Military Administration, reported this on Telegram, according to Ukrinform.

"The situation with drinking water in Severodonetsk remains critical. It is only getting worse with the heat. In addition, the community lacks skilled workers in the housing and utilities sector, as salaries are constantly delayed. Due to the deteriorating living conditions and lack of any prospects, young people are leaving the city, either to go deeper into the occupied territory or to Russia," said Vlasenko.

According to him, the occupation administration is increasing pressure on the local population, forcing them to obtain Russian passports. This is explained by the fact that Moscow has scheduled "elections" for September, and local authorities need to show a significant percentage of "Russian" voters.

As reported, Russian invaders threaten to deport doctors in the temporarily occupied Starobilsk, in the Luhansk region.
