The criminal army of Russia is suffering high losses on the left bank of the Dnipro River in Kherson region and is deploying more experienced units.

What is known about the situation on the left bank of the Kherson region

According to Natalia Humeniuk, the head of the Joint Press Centre of the Operational Command "South", Russian war criminals are increasing the intensity of attacks on the left bank of the Dnipro River in Kherson region.

Humeniuk noted that the intensity of enemy assaults depends on weather conditions and the efficiency of ammunition supplies.

Against the backdrop of 10 to 13 assault actions per day, 2 and 3 assault actions per day is a sharp drop in activity. We recorded that they were "collecting their thoughts", perhaps waiting for the arrival of new units," explains the spokesperson for the South military command.

She stressed that the Russian occupiers are currently trying to restore the dynamics of the fighting that was observed earlier.

In particular, Humeniuk noted that the number of enemy attacks per day has increased to 9-19 attacks.

"At the beginning of the defence of the bridgehead, when the enemy was trying to actively conduct assault operations, we recorded up to 30 assault operations per day. Taking into account the number of occupants concentrated in this area, we understand that the assault actions will continue systematically," said the spokesperson for the "South" military command.

She also added that the issue at hand is not the total number of Russian occupation troops on the left bank of the Dnipro River in Kherson region, but the effectiveness and combat capability of enemy units.

Prior to that, the occupiers used Storm-Z assault units, formed mainly of Russian prisoners amnestied for participation in the war.

Now the enemy is already pulling up reserves from airborne units and marines.

This indicates a desire to increase the effectiveness of assault operations. Obviously, the military leadership is setting the task to break through our defences and deprive us of the foothold. Our units are repelling these attacks with maximum force and with the support of counter-battery fire," said Humeniuk.

The spokesperson for the "South" military command stressed that the Ukrainian military repelled all enemy attacks in the Krynky area.

The enemy is concentrating its efforts as much as possible. Given the fact that such a small village was mentioned in the dictator's address, it shows the importance of this area for the enemy and the understanding that they need at least some kind of victory there," said Humeniuk.
