Reznikov explained the slow counteroffensive in the Kherson region
Ukrainian truth
The counter-offensive around Kherson is moving more slowly because it is an agricultural region "with irrigation canals" that the Russians can use as defensive trenches.
This was announced by the Minister of Defense of Ukraine Oleksiy Reznikov to the Financial Times .
Reznikov said the near-simultaneous counter-offensive around Kherson was moving more slowly because it was an agricultural region "with irrigation canals" that the Russians could use as defensive trenches.
He also noted that Chechens in southern Ukraine are being used to prevent front-line troops from leaving their positions.
Earlier, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine already reported that a unit of "Kadyrovites" numbering more than a thousand people arrived in the occupied Kherson region.
