Russian forces are banned from using armor on Kherson's left bank - Ukraine's military spokesperson

Morale of the Russian forces on the left bank of Kherson region is extremely low

Colonel Natalia Humeniuk, head of the Joint Coordination Press Centre of the Southern Ukrainian Defence Forces, told this on the Espreso TV channel.

"Over the past day, the Ukrainian Armed Forces repelled four attacks on the left bank. At dawn, Russian enemy tried to attack again. This means they have a mission and are forced to go there. However, the morale of the assault groups is extremely low. There are constant clashes between them. Because the Russian command does not allow them to use armoured vehicles, but forces them to carry out 'cannon fodder assaults'. That is, now the Russian forces are mostly using human resources," she said.

The situation at the front is really difficult due to the lack of ammunition. The Russian enemy is intensifying its activities in virtually all parts of the frontline, noted Humeniuk.

"On the left bank of the Kherson region, Russian forces terrorize the bridgehead from time to time. The occupying Russian forces have reported a 'victory', but still continue to attack our soldiers who hold positions there. No matter how much Shoigu would like to lie to his 'tsar', the truth is coming out," she added.

  • On February 25, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported that in the Kherson sector, the Russian troops did not give up their intention to drive Ukrainian units from the bridgeheads on the left bank of the Dnipro River.
