The AFU start "clearing" left bank of Kherson Oblast from occupiers
We can currently talk about an area of 20-30 km
The Armed Forces of Ukraine have begun "clearing" the left bank of Kherson Oblast from the occupiers.
This was reported by Natalia Humeniuk, a spokeswoman for the Operational Command South, during the national TV marathon, Ukrinform reports.
The defenders are working to make the enemy "feel the presence and pressure". Currently, we are talking about a zone of 20-30 km on the Left Bank.
"This is a rather difficult job and it is complicated by the fact that the enemy is constantly hiding behind civilians, trying to hide his units and equipment in the yards of local residents behind residential buildings," explained Ms. Humeniuk.
At the same time, according to the spokeswoman, the work of the Defence Forces is "quite effective". In particular, the number of attacks from the Kinburn Spit has significantly decreased due to the destruction of the enemy's supply and ammunition depot.
Ms. Humeniuk also said that the occupiers do not have strong support now, so even moving by land is difficult for them. The Defence Forces of Ukraine are trying to keep the isthmus that connects the mainland of the Left Bank with the Kinburn Peninsula under fire control.
Previously. The Armed Forces of Ukraine destroyed a russian subversive reconnaissance group that intended to land on the islands near Kherson. The occupiers lost 7 more boats.
