Left bank of Kherson. Our warriors. Thank you for your strength and for moving forward! Glory to each and everyone who is returning freedom and justice to Ukraine,” Zelensky wrote.
Earlier on Friday, the Ukrainian military for the first time began to announce “successful actions” on the eastern bank and the creation of “bridgeheads,” as the media wrote about in November.
Officially it is said this way:
Ours gained a foothold on several bridgeheads on the left bank of the Dnieper.
The command of the Marine Corps of the Ukrainian Navy wrote on the morning of November 17 that this was done thanks to the courage and professionalism of the Ukrainian marines in cooperation with other units of the Defense Forces.
During the fighting, Russian troops suffered heavy losses in manpower and equipment. In particular, since the beginning of these activities, the occupiers have lost 1 thousand 216 soldiers killed and 2 thousand 217 wounded.
For a long time, think tanks and foreign media reported about battles in the area of the village of Krynki and other territories of the Oleshkovo community on the left bank of the Kherson region, but for the first time such a message was officially disseminated by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
