“Russians continue heavy shelling of Kherson Oblast to prevent a counteroffensive,” OC South reports.
“Unfortunately, the enemy is so frightened by a counteroffensive that it is trying to destroy everything in the vicinity of the right bank using carpet-bombing and heavy shelling of the riverside towns and villages.
The Kherson and Beryslav districts, as well as Beryslav, Kherson and Kizomys remain under constant fire. The ruscists are trying to strike with guided aerial bombs in order to psychologically put pressure on civilians and our military units to make it seem liketheir power is so great that it is not worth even trying to advance.
Even though the enemies know that the crossing of the Dnieper is a powerful and complex operation, they are apprehensive about Ukrainian attacks from all directions, no matter what the analysts’ forecasts are, ” said the head of the joint press center of the Operational Command South Natalia Humeniuk.
