[Censor] Russian troops are trying to create the illusion that they are supposedly "withdrawing" from the Kherson region. In fact, the occupiers can thus prepare a trap for Ukrainian forces.

This was reported by the head of the Joint Coordination Press Center of the Defense Forces of Southern Ukraine, Nataliya Humenyuk, on the air of the telethon, informs Censor.NET with reference to RBC-Ukraine.

To the journalist's question, whether the Russians can prepare traps for the Armed Forces during the Ukrainian counteroffensive and which ones, she replied that "such a situation is not excluded."

"Because the Russians are trying to convince that they are "leaving". Despite the fact that we see objective data - they are staying. There are defense units that have dug in quite powerfully, a certain amount of equipment has been left behind, firing positions have been set up. And , in particular, those positions that are set up on the left bank, they will be used for fire support on the right," Gumenyuk explained.

She emphasized that the occupiers are trying to create an effect as if they are "not there" in order to lure our Defense Forces into certain settlements.

"A settlement is always complicated street battles . We know and foresee the development of events that the Russians are trying to impose on us, and we are drawing up our strategic plan," Humenyuk concluded.
