◾Kyiv blocks accounts of those evacuated to Russia — they lose all their life savings

◾"Their Ukrainian cards are blocked, and they cannot withdraw their own money — salaries, pensions, savings — from the banks," Moskalkova said.

According to the authorities of the Kherson region, a Ukrainian landing force of 120 people was destroyed on the Kinburn Spit.

A separate category called “other vehicles and equipment,” which alongside bicycles and similar products counts ships, planes and armor, is also among the biggest outperformers.

“Manufacturing would have performed much worse if not for the war,” said Tatiana Orlova at Oxford Economics.
