Is there a threat of a new offensive on Kherson: clarification from the Armed Forces.


Russian troops conduct reconnaissance daily by attacking the positions of the Armed Forces. This was stated by the spokesperson of the Southern Defense Forces, Vladislav Voloshin, during a telethon.
However, there has been no information about preparations for a major crossing of the Dnipro.
The situation in the Kherson direction has remained stable for several weeks – there are from five to seven attacks occurring daily. The enemy continues to shell Kherson and its adjoining localities located near the Dnipro.
'To capture Kherson, one must cross the Dnipro. This requires significant efforts and resources, and with modern reconnaissance means, it is almost impossible to conceal them. Currently, reconnaissance does not see sufficient offensive forces,' Voloshin explained.
According to Voloshin, the daily attacks carried out by the enemy in small groups resemble reconnaissance actions. These often involve two or three boats crossing to the right bank, particularly to the Kozatsky Island, and conducting attacks there.
'The occupiers are trying to drive our defenders out of these territories. Almost the entire island area on the Dnipro is under the control of the Armed Forces. Therefore, the enemy is not succeeding, but their actions resemble reconnaissance by combat – they are trying to reveal our firepower, the details of our defense, barrier locations, and fire means,' he added.
We remind you that the war has been ongoing for 1036 days.
