Details: Russian troops confirmed that on the 17th-18th, two Ukrainian brigades of naval infantry, apparently, at the company level, launched an attack across the Dnieper River on the opposite (Left) bank of the Kherson region sti.

Geolocation images published on June 18 indicate that Ukrainian forces have reached the outskirts of Pishchanivka (14 km from Kherson and 3 km from the Dnieper River) and into the Poima ( 11 km at the exit from Kherson and 4 km from the Dnieper River) .

Looking back, we point out that Russian residents were stimulating the influence of Ukrainian activity in the Kherson region and viewed this activity as part of a potential larger-scale Ukraine. any operation.

According to experts, Russia’s concern about the availability of Russian troops to increase the potential of the Ukrainian offensive operation through the Dnieper may be often connected with the camp of the Russian grouping of forces on the left birch.

Over the past month, the Russian command has transferred significantly more spruce units from Kherson directly to support defense operations at the entrance to the Zaporizhzhya region, fragments are likely to be seen Kherson is a quiet sector, and the current level of power in this region is certainly less combative.

This means: ISW will not speculate on the scale and prospects of the troubling Ukrainian activity in the convergence of the Kherson region, rather than assess that Ukrainian forces have created a bridgehead in the convergence of the Kherson region and the Kherson region, equipped with significant mechanized forces for further maneuver.

However, they add that it is clear that reliable Russian officials are discussing Ukrainian affairs on a similar scale, which was previously documented tactfully and raids of Ukrainian forces across the river.
