Ukrainian army persists in occupying Dnieper River’s east bank

Moscow, Jul 13 (Prensa Latina) Ukrainian troops continue their attempts to cross Dnieper River's east bank near Antonovsky Bridge but are systematically repelled, Acting Governor of the Kherson Region Vladimir Saldo said on Thursday.

The senior official commented on Telegram that the enemy tried to move small groups to the Antonovsky Bridge area on the river’s east bank but could not entrench there, as most of the landing craft they use are destroyed by Russian artillery.

The military forces that managed to get ashore hid in fishermen’s houses surrounded by impenetrable marshes.

The Kherson region became part of the Russian Federation after a referendum held in September 2022.

The Ukrainian side does not recognize its legitimacy and continues shelling that territory.
