#3 Approaching Nova Khakhovka or boasting?

#4 I would suspect boasting or panic. There were unconfirmed reports of the UA being in Baryslav yesterday, but no photos or anything to corroborate.

The Russians are definitely on their heels and the rains should end tomorrow for a while so Ukraine has a nice window for further advances over fields once they dry out a bit.

#5 Although it is a good chance there may be some Ukrainian special forces units running around the rear their creating panic and chaos. They sure did that in the last couple offensives.

#6 To the north of Lyman, Borova is liberated. Possibly without a fight.

#7 I expect the Ukrainians are surrounding and bypassing any strongpoints. The Ukrainians can reinforce and defeat the Russians piecemeal.

In Dudchany, the Russians have blown a bridge into the city.

As far a Khakovka, it a heck of a long way. But is sounds like recon units are roaming all over NW Kherson.

#8 Ukraine Captures a Fully Loaded TOS-1 in Kherson

#9 A Russian channel is saying that Ukraine has taken Dudchany, Kherson Oblast.

With the blown up bridge in Dudchany, the Ukrainians will have to make a substantial detour on secondary roads. The bridge was on the main highway heading south.

#10 #7 sound like the Ukrainians are using Motti tactics on an operational scale.
