The expert says that the Armed Forces of Ukraine will not storm the city head-on.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine are trying with little bloodshed and the least losses to “crush” the Russian group in Kherson to the Dnieper and force her to surrender there.
Such an assumption expressed military expert Oleg Zhdanov, stressing that the final decision rests with the Ukrainian General Staff.
“We are pressing on Kherson from several sides. The main task is not that we storm the fortified areas head-on. We try to bypass them – where they build defensive lines, this time. Secondly, we bleed this grouping by destroying warehouses, equipment , weapons, personnel, command and control centers, communications. Now in Kherson we are even working on strongholds, delivering strikes with both attack aircraft and our artillery. There is a systematic cut-off of the group of troops in the Kherson region from logistical supply routes – replenishment with fuel, ammunition , food, personnel, equipment and weapons,” the expert explained.
