She said British military intelligenceMost of the fighting has turned into a front of nearly 350 kilometers stretching in the southwest of the country near Zaporozhye to Kherson along the Dnieper River.

And about the Russian crowd, political analyst Arthur Lydekberg said that "as I did Russia At the end of March, concentrating on the east after the losses it suffered when it fought on more than one front and actually succeeded in controlling the entire Lugansk region, now Ukraine is doing the same as its focus is on liberating the south and expelling the Russians from there".
Lydekberg added in an interview with the site "Sky News Arabia"that Russia "It did not expect such aggressive counterattack from Ukraine, especially after the liberation of dozens of villages, and Kyiv took advantage of the long-range missile systems that it obtained from the West to inflict severe damage on three bridges across the Dnipro River, which led to the isolation of Kherson and made the Russian army stationed on the west bank of the river in weak position".
He explained that "In parallel, over the past days, Russia has moved some of its forces from eastern Ukraine to parts of Kherson and the region Zaporizhia In the south of Ukraine to confront the fierce Ukrainian moves and not to change the geography of the battles, it still wants to secure its control over Donetsk first".
He pointed out that Kyiv "It is working to benefit from the supplies of Western weapons, especially machine guns "himars" Which changed the balance on the battlefield, while stressing that Russia would not give up one of its biggest gains easily, which was one of the main goals of securing fresh water to Crimea, which Moscow captured in 2014, as well as its strategic location on the Black Sea.".

Such a development, if successful, would boost the morale of Ukrainian forces and civilians alike, and send a huge shockwave. for the Kremlin".
Zuckerman added to the site "Sky News Arabia"it’s a "If Ukraine succeeds in taking Kherson, two scenarios may follow. Russia may soon resume a counterattack to retake the city, at which point no one can guess whether it will devote sufficient time and resources to the effort, or will reduce its losses, at least temporarily, To regroup elsewhere, perhaps in more disparate regions such as the east, that Moscow needs to unite to successfully establish contiguous territorial control of Crimea and Moldova.".
