[NewsFrontInfo] 22:42 More than 200 thousand people have already arrived in the Armed Forces as part of partial mobilization, Shoigu said.

19:08 The Russian army retreats in the south due to a shortage of forces to create a continuous front line instead of a focal one

In the north of the Kherson region, our troops are urgently reformatting the front line. Due to the large numerical superiority of the enemy, the RF Armed Forces are creating a new line of defense in a narrower area, eliminating the threat of our units falling into the boiler after the breakthrough of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the direction of Berislav.

▪️“Avoiding the emerging encirclement, the RF Armed Forces withdrew along the entire front of the Ingulets River to the east of the previously captured enemy bridgehead on the indicated river.

▪️The key n.p. Davydov Brod (for which fierce battles were fought for two months) and a number of large villages in its vicinity.

▪️The withdrawal continues. Apparently, the goal of the command of our group is to reduce the front line, at least to the state of creating a continuous (and not focal) front line covering Berislav and the Novo-Kakhovskaya dam," writes I. Strelkov.

▪️On the other side of the left-bank bridgehead of the Dnieper, during the enemy's breakthrough along the Dnieper, ours left Dudchany and hold the line of defense along the Mylovoe-Borozenskoye line.

▪️Here, from the right bank of the Dnieper, our artillery will also be able to support the defending troops.

▪️But our urgently need reinforcements, primarily with heavy equipment.

▪️At this time, tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and other equipment are moving into the Crimea, and our mobilized units are preparing at the training grounds. Before entering them into the NWO zone, it is necessary to hold the front.

15:17 On the southwestern outskirts of Dnepropetrovsk, the headquarters of the Vostok air command of the Ukrainian army - the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, was hit by a high-precision strike of the Russian Aerospace Forces.

15:01 The Armed Forces of Ukraine are advancing in two directions on the Kherson front. There are heavy battles. According to “Come and See”, in the area of ​​​​Davydov Brod, the airborne forces are holding the line. However, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are building up pressure, bringing fresh reserves into battle.

In the Berislav direction, the enemy has so far been stopped in the Dudchan area. There, Russian forces were able to blow up the dam, which significantly hampered the advancement of Ukrainian units. However, part of the settlement is currently under the control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

The main tactical goal of the Ukrainian offensive is the unification of forces in the so-called "St. Andrew's gut". In the future, the Ukrainians will be able to conduct an offensive against New Kakhovka. The strategic task is to bypass Kherson and cut off the RF Armed Forces from supplies.
