Russian ‘whining’ about cut-off logistics on Dnipro's left bank is fabrication

Operational Command South's spokesperson Natalia Humeniuk says that Russia still has the ability to bring heavy artillery to the Kinburn Spit

She said this on Espreso TV. 

"Our reports indicate that the opposite bank of the Dnipro-Buh estuary is being shelled from the Kinburn Spit. From time to time, the enemy reminds us of itself, and it does not plan to withdraw its units from there completely. This is a confirmation that their "whining" about the cut-off logistics may be a fabrication. Things are not so bad there for us to hope that the occupying Russian forces will give up and leave," emphasized Humeniuk.

According to her, from time to time Russia still has the opportunity to bring heavy artillery and MLRS to the Kinburn Spit.

"We are assessing the situation objectively. The Russian forces are attacking the Ochakiv and Kutsurub communities precisely because it has a land corridor to the Kinburn Spit. The Kinburn Spit, like a peninsula, connects to the temporarily occupied Kherson region on the left bank. Until everything is completely cleared there, we cannot say that these communities will ‘exhale’ in peace," said Humeniuk.

  • On November 13, the American Institute for the Study of War reported that over the past day, November 12, the Ukrainian Defense Forces had some success in advancing in a ground operation on Dnipro’s left bank in the Kherson region.
  • On November 13, Russian propaganda news agencies RIA Novosti and TASS reported that the Russian Defense Ministry had decided to move troops "to more favorable positions east of Dnipro" in the Kherson region. Later, they retracted these statements, and the Defense Ministry called them a provocation. The Ukrainian resistance also denied this information.
  • There were 80 combat engagements in the frontline over the last day. Ukrainian defenders continue to conduct assault operations in the Bakhmut sector and repel enemy attacks. Ukrainian troops eliminated 920 invaders over the last day.
