He said this on the Espreso TV channel

"Krynky remains a difficult section of the frontline. The enemy is trying to push our marines out there with all their efforts. They are not succeeding. It is on the Krynky example that we can clearly observe the technological capabilities of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. When artillery from the right bank of the Dnipro River and drones ensure the destruction of all the equipment the enemy is trying to pull up and affect our units," said Zgurets.

The analyst emphasized that the Defense Forces continue to hold the bridgehead near Krynky, despite the difficult conditions of the fighting

"Russia's losses in equipment near Krynky are enormous. However, using aviation, the enemy destroyed the settlement itself. It is in such conditions, when it is extremely difficult to gain a foothold and find positions for defense, that our military operate. Our units continue to hold the bridgehead, and their support continues with the help of drones," he added.

  • On January 14, the American Institute for the Study of War reported that Russian occupation forces in the temporarily occupied Kherson region are increasingly mistaking their drones for Ukrainian ones and shooting them down.
  • There were 94 combat clashes on the frontline over the past day, the Ukrainian military repelled almost a hundred attempts of Russia's offensive in seven key areas and eliminated another 1110 Russian military.
  • On January 16, Natalia Humeniuk, spokesperson for Ukraine's Southern Defense Forces, reported that there are logistical difficulties for Ukraine's troops on the left bank of the Kherson region, but the Defense Forces continue to hold their positions
