The occupiers tried to land on one of the islands on the Dnieper near Kherson.



The occupants appropriated the civilian light-engine boat and equipped it for military purposes.

The command and press centre of the Tavrian defence forces said:

During an attempt by an enemy DRG to land on one of the so-called Potemkin islands on the Dnieper, the defence forces hit a light-engine civilian boat that the occupiers had appropriated and equipped for military purposes. The occupiers do not understand that whatever they equip as a "Russian warship" will be sent by Ukrainian fighters in the only course known to all.

Earlier, on 10 January, the Ukrainian military also hit a Russian boat in the Kherson direction. This happened on the Dnieper River near Belogrudy island (not far from Hola Prystana, Kherson Region).
