Russian military personnel have been seizing food supplies dropped by Ukrainian forces for residents of Oleshky, according to a report from the Ukrainian news agency Ukrinform.
The report states that possessing food products not manufactured in Russia could reportedly be used as grounds to detain a person on suspicion of "cooperating with the Ukrainian Armed Forces."
Conditions in occupied territory
Oleshky, located in a Russian-occupied area, has faced ongoing humanitarian difficulties, and aid drops from Ukrainian forces have been one means of getting supplies to residents there, according to the report.
Ukrinform's account describes an environment in which residents' access to non-Russian goods is being restricted and monitored by occupying forces, though the report does not specify how many incidents of seizure have occurred or over what period.
Russian authorities have not been quoted in the available reporting regarding the claims made by Ukrinform.
