On the 23rd of September, the Russia-appointed administrations in the temporarily occupied Ukrainian territories started sham referenda trying to create a legal precedent for joining Ukrainian territories to Russia. On the night of the 22nd of September, Mykolaiv was subjected to powerful Russian shelling, and residential buildings and civilian infrastructure were damaged. On the 23rd of September, the bodies of people murdered by Russians were exhumed from the mass grave in liberated Izium – 447 bodies were found, including children.
