According to journalists, 10,000 Russian soldiers are now on the western bank of the Dnieper in Kherson region. Recently, nine units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation from Donbass and Crimea have been transferred to the southern regions of the country. The number of each unit is 500-800 people.
The publication states that in this way Russia is trying to respond to the statements about the counter -offensive and success in the promotion of the Ukrainian army, which over the last month has moved the front line from Nikolaev by 2 km. The capture of Nikolaev is necessary for the Russian military in order to continue to move to Odessa.
In addition, this may be necessary for bridges across the Dnieper in the Kherson region beyond the reach of HIMARS, which received the Armed Forces from the United States. We will remind, on August 6, the intelligence of Britain reported that the war in Ukraine goes into a new phase and the most fierce battles will probably take place in the south of the country. Currently, the Russian Federation throws its forces from Donbass southwest.
