Appaz Kurtamet, a 21-year-old Crimean Tatar, who was abducted by the Russian occupiers in the occupied Kherson region two years ago and imprisoned for 7 years, was allowed to meet with his older sister. Appaz's mother Ayşe Odabaş wrote about it on Facebook. The woman told the details of the meeting and asked users to write letters to her son in the Russian prison.

Appaz Kurtamet is a resident of the village of Novooleksiyivka. In July 2022, the occupiers grabbed the 19-year-old in Henichesk and forcibly took him to Chongar. They confiscated his cell phone and accused him of financing terrorism based on private correspondence: Appaz allegedly sent several hundred hryvnias for the needs of the Crimea battalion. Even the occupation court removed this "evidence" from the case, but did not change the verdict: 7 years in prison.
