Ukraine Situation Report: Officials Say Russian Lines Breached By Southern Offensive
Multiple Ukrainian officials confirmed the nation’s military has launched a multipronged offensive against Russian forces in and around the city and region of Kherson in the south, making at least initial progress through lines held by Russian and separatist forces in the area.
After weeks of pounding the permanent bridge crossings of the Dnipro River, Ukrainian forces began attacking opposition troops along a wide front with the likely goal of trapping Russian forces against the river and routing them or at least making them abandon large quantities of ammunition and equipment if forced back across the waterway.
Sergey Khlan, of the Kherson regional council, said Ukrainian forces have "breached the Russian first line of defense in the province."
