- Government agencies in Ukraine are asking locals to remove all road signs
- The defense ministry said the move was aimed at disorienting Russian forces
- The Ukrainian road sign agency Ukravtodor made a model of a road sign that reads: “Fuck. Fuck again. Fuck Russia ”in Ukrainian
Government agencies have told Ukrainians to remove road signs and markings to “confuse and disorient” invading Russian forces.
The call was published by the ministry Twitter on Saturday, as fighting around the Ukrainian capital Kiev intensifies between Russian and Ukrainian forces.
The mood was repeated by the Ukrainian road sign agency Ukravtodor on their Facebook page next to a mock-up of a road sign that reads: “Fuck. Fuck again. Fuck Russia ”in Ukrainian.
The ministry wrote: “In order to confuse and disorient the enemy who is moving illegally to Ukraine, we call for: – to remove signs with numbers and names of streets / cities / villages in their regions.”
The call to remove the signs was posted on the ministry’s Twitter account on Saturday as fighting over the Ukrainian capital Kiev intensified between Russian and Ukrainian forces.
A sign above part of the Borispol highway read: “Russian warship, fuck you!” In connection with the killing of Ukrainian border guards stationed on Snake Island off the coast of Ukraine when they refused to surrender to Kremlin forces.
Ukravtodor, the Ukrainian road sign agency, published a similar request, but added a mock-up of a road sign that reads: “Fuck. Fuck again. Fuck Russia ”in Ukrainian.
“We will do everything possible to clear Ukraine of the Russian occupier as soon as possible!”
Ukravtodor said: “We are dismantling road signs on all roads in the country.
“Priority №1 – signposts, names of settlements. The collected signs are handed over to local authorities and passengers.
“The enemy has a meager connection, they do not orient themselves in the area.
“Let’s help them go straight to hell.”
Ukravtodor calls on all road organizations, territorial communities and local authorities to immediately start dismantling nearby road signs.
The rebuke of Vladimir Putin’s forces comes after reports of a small militia of Ukrainian troops on Snake Island in the Black Sea defiantly told a Russian warship “get away” before losing their lives defending the land.
The opposition of the defenders of Snake Island has become Ukraine’s resistance to Russian aggression.
The phrase was shown on a digital road sign on a major Ukrainian highway near Borispol, according to the Kyiv Post, an independent English-language news agency in the country.
Disobedient President Vladimir Zelensky has vowed to “destroy the occupiers” as he says his country’s army has successfully repulsed Russian forces advancing on Kiev.
Disobedient President Vladimir Zelensky has vowed to “destroy the occupiers”, saying his country’s army has successfully repulsed Russian forces advancing on Kiev.
In a video message to the besieged nation, Zelensky accused the Kremlin of trying to seize the capital, overthrow the government and establish a “puppet” regime “like in Donetsk”, one of the two separatist regions that war-mongering Vladimir Putin officially acknowledged before complete invasion.
Saying that “we broke their idea”, he added: “The fights are taking place in many cities and regions of our country. But we know that we are defending the country, the land, the future of our children. Kiev and key cities around the capital are controlled by our army.
“Every Ukrainian must have one thing in mind: if you can stop and destroy the occupiers – do it. Anyone who can return to Ukraine – to return to defend Ukraine.
Meanwhile, curfew in Kiev has been introduced until 8 am on Monday to ensure the most effective protection of the city and the safety of the people. The previous daily curfew was from 10 to 7 in the morning.
Mayor Vitali Klitschko said: “All civilians on the street during curfew will be considered members of the enemy’s sabotage and intelligence groups.”
This comes after a high-rise apartment building in Kiev was hit by a devastating rocket this morning, while the number of civilians killed in Ukraine reached 198.
