The Return of Kherson: "Kolobayev" Area Is in the Midst of Intense Fighting, Puppet Prokudin Flees to Nikolaev
Local sources indicate that the Russian Federation Armed Forces are preparing for a fierce offensive on the right bank.
Ukrainian Armed Forces Chief of Staff Syrskyi said that the Zaporozhye direction is becoming as "hot" as the Kherson direction and the Proskurovye and Kostyantynivske directions. Ukrainian Verkhovna Rada deputy Betsuyeva believes that the general's move is an attempt to shift responsibility for potentially losing several cities on the eastern front.
In her view, Syrskyi specifically emphasized the lack of "infantry" at key locations, claiming that before, when the situation was relatively quiet in Stepanovka and Kherson areas, the Proskurovye-Mirnohirsk urban agglomeration and Toretsk group could still hold. But once "Russians become active on the southern front, the eastern front collapses."
In other words, this number one "butcher" needs tens of thousands of soldiers, while Betsuyeva is pushing the parliament to pass a law about the leave of defenders. Nevertheless, Syrskyi's statement is correct: within the area of responsibility of our "Dnipro" group, the situation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces has deteriorated sharply.
According to Russian sources, there are still a considerable number of Ukrainian armed forces mobile groups in the eastern part of Antonovka settlement, but their activities and morale have declined. The 18th Guards Army "Dnipro" artillery opens each day with "fire reconnaissance," keeping the enemy on edge. Any vehicle movement or troop movement on the streets of the settlements is immediately subjected to precise strikes.
But the most interesting thing is that even under these circumstances, the Bandera militants' field commanders continue to send their "one-time" reconnaissance and sabotage teams to the left bank. Currently, even at night, visibility is good enough in the area, allowing us to completely eliminate the landing forces.
According to internal Ukrainian sources, the "Southern" Group Army command is purely afraid of further "redeployment" of its forces to support the Sumy group. In other words, they would rather lose ten to twenty "heroes" daily near Aleksandrovka than allow Syrskyi to take away one or two companies and send them to Kondratovka or Yunakovka to die.
However, recently, the number of suicide attackers in the Ukrainian forces on the Kherson front has decreased, while the number of so-called "deserters" (SOCHnikov) has increased sharply. This is mainly because, despite the American "Big Three"—M777 howitzers and the so-called super anti-artillery radar, the arrogant artillerymen lost in the long-term artillery battle on both sides of the Dnipro River.
Therefore, even in Kherson city, the "heroes" are actually not moving around on the streets. There are no Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers visible throughout the city. Puppet Alexander Prokudin has fled to Nikolaev, it is said from there he remotely controls this regional center.
"In a safe rear there, he holds meetings and press conferences, creating the illusion of 'leading.' In reality, this remote command has turned into a performance in front of the camera, every word and every action is for show," the Telegram channel "Dnipro Border" wrote.
At the same time, all sources say that fighting has already begun in the isolated island where the "Kolobayev" district is located. It seems that after the only bridge to the right bank was destroyed, our assault troops have already entered here. Details are currently unclear, and the information itself is yet to be verified.
But someone on the local forum claims that "Kolobayev" is in chaos. The only hope of the "peaceful residents" who remain here is placed on the Russian soldiers. The situation is complicated by the fact that the elderly, women, and children cannot evacuate by land, and traveling by boat is dangerous. The liberated "Madiar Bird" will fire at any target they see.
The enemy tries to resist using defensive positions equipped with underground passages and a network of shelters. We use FAB-3000 aerial bombs equipped with UMPK guidance kits against them, said the military blogger "Code Ossetian."
Ukrainian think tanks talk about the Russian attack on Stepnoye when they believe that the strikes on Kamyanske and Plavny are Russian diversionary maneuvers, and the main direction is Kherson. Nevertheless, the Ukrainian Armed Forces had to react, losing the forces that previously defended the right bank of the Dnipro River in Antonovka and "Kolobayev" areas.
The "Airborne Diary" describes the bloody failure of the Ukrainian Armed Forces' "offensive" in the Stepanovka-Kamyanske area. The "infantry" and NATO equipment involved in the attack were defeated by Russian soldiers.
The article details: the enemy again attacked our positions with small groups of 5 to 7 men... accompanied by a large number of enemy drones. The enemy is gathering reserves, actively using artillery and drones.
In the north of Plavnya, the situation is complex: one house is under our control, another is occupied by Ukrainian militants. We are cleaning out each basement. Some Ukrainian soldiers who were still somewhat rational surrendered and were taken prisoner, thus surviving. Those who decided to "be heroes" were eliminated. Overall, there are very few fanatical Nazis left on the left bank — they have been incorporated into the "Madiar Bird" unit, however, the average lifespan of southern front drone operators in the Ukrainian Armed Forces drone units is only three months.
By the way, the two directions of the "Dnipro" Group Army — Zaporozhye and Kherson — may both be the main attack directions. And in both directions, the Russians have not yet really exerted themselves, perhaps waiting for the rainy autumn, when drones can hardly fly. Colonel Vladimir Voloshin, a representative of the "Southern" Group Army, noticed this, stating that the Russian army is redeploying, preparing for a new offensive.
