  1. Ukrainian army doesn't enter to Kherson in big mass. All what we have seen on the videos were small recon groups. As if enough number of rearguard Russian troops, which hadn't time to cross a river can sneak to this time in city districts, close to Dnipro. Russians can be weared in civil clothes and come out with small gropus. GUR issued an appeal to Russian soldiers, which left in Kherson, that they to surrender. On the video soldier of 142nd SOF Center in the center of Kherson
  2. Meanwhile, fields around Pavlivka are a bit dry and Russians renewed assault. They claimed conrol over 90 % of village (up to the river) and even showed as they "raised a flag in the center of Pavlivka", but indeed it was geolocated on the same SE part of village, captured in first days of assault. The village is under shelling of both sides, UKR troops try to evacuate locals, no communication, so no insides from locals. It's likely village controlled 50/50 and clashes are continuing all around. The video from company tactical group of 23rd separate rifle battalion, which was thrown into the battle in this weekend Rifle battalions are new units, established since 24th Feb. Initially they were just "foot infantry", using for movement donated pick-ups, or some "shtat" trucks, later some received few armor. Usually separate rifle battalions attach to existing brigades - one or two per brigade. But also they can be used as separate units to reinforce some direction. So, this is infantry for "stand and fight".
  3. Ukrainian troops entered to western part of Kherson. Likely Shumenskyi market area
  4. If they do it, the wave just will wash away all their defensive lines, being built on left bank near the water
  5. Since they started retreat at least two weeks ago, this withdrawal was enough successfull, especailly for VDV, which in mass were moved on left bank in first order. From rearguard troops Russian media meant 205th MRBr, defending Snuhurivka area
  6. Numerous social media reports about encirclement and disater of "20 000 troops" in Kherson likely was just usual media panic and UKR PsyOps. Though, in the night our HIMARSes and likely arty shelled crossings in Kherson and Nova Kakhovka, but this obviously wasn't "massacre" On theese videos you can hear sounds of intensive shellings It's hard to say what real damage was inflicted to Russians, but here is morning video of Russian military correspondent from left bank Damaged barge bridge with desrtoyed KAMAZ on it
  7. Several accounts of people from Kherson or Kherson oblast meant about yesterday night strike on Chervonyi Mayak village (lays on Dnipro bank between Mylove and Beryslav), where Russian troops where deployed, expecting for own queue to cross the Dnipro along the dam or by ferries in Nova Kahovka. As if there were two strikes with several hour delay - one hit building with personnel, next hit reamins of building again and vehicles. I can't find any confirmations, also no info about this from oppose side. Though Operative Commend "South" reported about some "HQ hit in Beryslav district"
  8. Kachkarivka village is liberated by National Guard.
  9. Reportedly big explosion in Obryvka village (left bank), 15 km SW from Nova Kakhovka Also according unconfirmed info UKR troops struck Russian rearguard column near Chornobaivka, retreating to Kherson According to locals in Kherson still many Russian troops. They looting, mining, set booby traps. No cell phone communication, only near Antonivskyi bridge. Russians are blowing up boiler facilities and has blown up TV-center.
  10. There are a dozens of videos, where UKR drones terrorizing Russians with small bombs, dropping them directly in foxholes. It enough brutal, so I don't post it here, but this one is enough typical - often on such videos you can see, that Russian soldiers either look at the sky and just wait until the bomb hit nearby, or even when the bomb fell directly near him, they anyway stay in place, even not trying to escape. Here the same thing - Russian soldier had at least 2-3 seconds to jump out the trench, but remained in place, awaiting for the explosion
  11. Russian pontoon ferry sails on the Dnieper. You can see damaged barge bridge. Blogger says "now you can see the conditions of supply. To hold the large territory on right bank with such ways of supply is madness, but if there will be a will to fight we will try to playbacj this in some way"
  12. Many in Russian society, especially usual citizens, believed that Russian can't defeat Ukraine because it is not making "real" war yet and leaders just regret "usual Ukrainians" so Russian doesn't fight in full-strength. I don't know what they mean under this - likely carpet bombings and tank division wedges. This opinion share and military bloggers, but with that difference, they didn't undedrstand why Russia didn't conduct strikes at power plants, bridges and railways to destroy logistic and electricity supply, when became clear thar Plan A (Kyiv for 3 days) is failed
  13. Some bloggers are scolding General Staff, some even daring to criticize Putin for "indicisovness", but all claiming that Kherson surrendering was "less evil" and now Russia must mobilize all strength to win this war. And only Girkin claimed Russia already lost the war.
  14. Reportedly HIMARSes yesterday night worked at targets on left bank. Also today 4 missiles hit targets in Melitopol area
  15. Most of Russian troops already on left bank. UKR troops advance with cautions, because many mines on the roads, destroyed bridges and hazard of anbushes
  16. Harvesting of abandoned Ruissian armor in Kherson oblast
  17. This Russian apparently has seen "Saving private Ryan", but... something went wrong %)
  18. Kherson port is minor relatively to ports in Odesa, Pivdenne and Chornomorsk
  19. One more video from Kyselivka - liberated by troopers of 28th mech.brigade
  20. Likely just because Surovkin is a guy from their club Lapin surrendered Balakliya and Lyman - he is a traitor! Surovkin is surrendering Kherson - this is a wise man decision!
