Nataliya Humenyuk, head of the joint coordination press center of the Southern Defense Forces of Ukraine, told about this during a briefing at the Media Center Ukraine – Ukrinform.
She also added that, while retreating, the enemy mined part of the territory.
“We have made progress in various areas from four to several tens of kilometers. We have freed areas of about 500 square kilometers. And we can announce that the settlements of the Kherson region – Visokopyllya, Novovoznesenske, Bilogirka, Sukhy Stavok and Myrolyubivka have already been liberated today and under the Ukrainian flag. However shelling of these areas is still ongoing. While retreating, the enemy mined part of these areas, so all local residents should be careful. In these two weeks, we have destroyed more than 1,800 invaders, more than 500 units of armored vehicles, 122 tanks, two airplanes, two helicopters in the southern direction alone and about 10 cruise missiles,” Humenyuk informed.
According to her, the enemy continues to be based in the Black Sea – in addition to the carriers of “Caliber” missiles, amphibious ships have appeared.
