Russian army is nervous and looking for places for deployment in the South, and it shakes their morale 

She said this on Espreso TV channel.

"Russian troops have had reason to panic since 2014 because they invaded foreign territory and are trying to establish themselves. Ukrainian defense forces are looking for ways to expel them from Ukrainian territory and return Ukraine to its native borders of 1991. Russian occupying forces try to set up various lines of defense, and this has become a practice," Humeniuk noted.

According to the head of the press center of Security and Defense forces of OC South, Russian forces try to withdraw their forces and supplies as far as possible from under our fire control, which we are establishing on the left bank of the Dnipro river.

"The reach of Ukrainian artillery already makes it possible to disturb Russian troops in large areas and destroy his logistics. In particular, so that they, not having provision, would not have peace, and this is a branching of his efforts. This tactic of ours showed itself positively on the right bank of the Dnipro river during the liberation and has results on the left bank. Russian troops are nervous looking for places for deployment, and this shakes their morale," Humeniuk added.
