Articles with a tag: Melitopol

In order to manage occupied part of Zaporizhzhia region, Russia set up occupation authorities – “military civil administrations” (MCA). Our material “Russian “government”of occupied Zaporizhzhia region” covered Russian regional administration. Invaders divided occupied territory into five parts or five raions with respective administrations: Melitopolsky, Berdyansky, Vasylivsky, Energodarsky and Pologivsky. 

The Center for Journalist Investigations found out information about heads of occupation authorities in these raions by using Russian state databases, registers and other official sources of information. We start with Melitopol City, designated by Russians as “temporary capital” of occupied Zaporizhzhia region, and Melitopol raion.
