In dialogue with the press, the mayor said that the Russian forces “entered Kherson (Kherson) yesterday, so we are surrounded. They also entered the city of Kherson.” In addition, he explained that he had contact with the invaders to open the possibility of treating the wounded and bringing in food. “Today we plan to hold a meeting, a contact group so that we can carry out the life of the city of Kherson. Because we have a lot of big damage. There is no electricity where the fighting took place. There is no gas supply, there is no water , there are many wounded and there are “200” (dead),” he said.
At the same time, he remarked that “regular Russian troops are present and people are really afraid to go out” but noted that food is running out: “Food is running out so we have to get the bakeries back up and running – workers are now scared to go to work.”
In addition, he said that the Russian military he asked them “to stop hostilities, remove the equipment from the city of Kherson, remove the armored personnel carriers, remove the tanks, so as not to frighten the inhabitants of the city of Kherson” and that in the city “There should be a Ukrainian flag over the mayor’s office. Kherson is Ukraine, these are very important issues for me.”
With a convoy of more than 60 kilometers, the Russian army also deepened the siege on the Ukrainian capital city on the seventh day of the invasion ordered by Russian President Vladimir Putin. The disparity in military capacity between the two countries was reflected on Wednesday with a new wave of missiles hitting Kiev and other populous districts.
This afternoon, a strong explosion was felt near the central railway station of the Ukrainian capital. The information was released by the adviser to the Ministry of the Interior Anton Herashchenko in a post on the Internet, while a witness confirmed the fact to the Reuters agency.
After failing to quickly take the main cities and subdue the Ukrainian army, speculation about Russia’s strategy has led to the belief that the Army will make a tactical change of course to start surrounding the cities, cutting off supply routes and escape, then attacking with a combined force of armor and ground troops.
The most intense bombardment has affected Kharkiv, a city of 1.5 million in the east, whose center has become a bombed-out wasteland of dilapidated buildings and rubble.
Since the start of the war, Russian forces had launched 450 missiles at Ukrainian targets, including military installations, public government buildings and urban sites.
Since the beginning of the offensive, Russian forces have killed more than 2,870 Ukrainian soldiers and “nationalists” and wounded some 3,700. This was stated by the Moscow Defense Ministry, quoted by the Interfax news agency. While they assured that about 500 Russian soldiers have died, a figure that the Ukrainian government assures is even higher than reported.
