The Russian military is trying to attack important positions in the south of Ukraine.

He added that yesterday the enemy made 12 assault attempts on Staromayorske and 4 on Krynky.

According to Pletenchuk, the number of occupiers' losses over the past day is the same as over the previous day — more than 150, but the ratio of irreversible losses has tripled.

That is, the intensity of the fighting was higher, although the number of assaults was smaller.

The head of the strategic communications center added that the enemy did not try to storm Nestryha Island in the last two days, the occupiers' efforts in the Kherson direction were focused on the settlement of Krynky.

Over the past day, as Pletenchuk noted, the enemy attacked Ukrainian positions with unguided air missiles from a helicopter, but to no avail. The Russians also used a ballistic missile, previously Iskander, when shelling an administrative building in Kherson.

Over the past day, the enemy shelled settlements along the coastline on the Right Bank, one civilian was killed.

According to him, drones and electronic warfare (EW) systems are used by both sides.

Every day we see hundreds of drones on both sides, and both sides use EW. Our units also have appropriate cover.
