Most of the participants represented the indigenous northern peoples. According to IA Sakh.com, the main requirement of protesters is to ensure free access to fish extraction and places of traditional rest.

“The situation is simply asthma. Today we can’t even just go and relax by the water. We are not allowed to go to the Muzma River, we can’t just go with children and dilute the fire on the shore in our homeland, the Rybnovsky coast. Everyone was captured by the fish producers, we are not even talking about fishing,” the Sakhalin oil industry Evgeny Evgeny Evgeny said .

Residents of the city want to achieve the abolition of applications for fishing, revival of the Krasnaya Zarya collective farm and stop the work of private security enterprises cooperating with fishing camps. They also oppose the monopoly of fish industry. It was because of them that the shores of rivers and the sea were inaccessible to local residents, and people lost the opportunity to catch fish. The beaches are also closed for relaxation.

Local authorities did not respond to the protest and did not come to it.
