To surrender Kherson and other settlements: Russia is preparing to retreat from the right bank of the Dnieper - ISW
The new report states that the commander of the Armed Forces of Russia in Ukraine, General Sergey Surovkin, explicitly stated that the Russian military leadership should make "difficult decisions" on Kherson region. In addition, Volodymyr Saldo, the head of the occupation administration of the Kherson region, also said that evacuation from the right bank of the Dnieper would be evacuated.
At the same time, according to analysts, Russia uses "evacuation" to cover the eviction of peaceful Ukrainians from the occupied territories of Ukraine. Ukrainians are expected to be deported to depressed regions of Russia. The report states that Russia intends to influence Ukraine's economy in the long run. Yes, the Kremlin sees Kyiv returns the territory under control, and therefore wants at least people left there.
Earlier, Focus reported that Putin had declared "martial law" in Kherson, Zaporizhia, Donetsk and Luhansk regions. The "martial law" in four Ukrainian regions will come into force on the north on October 20, the President of the Russian Federation said. We will also remind that Putin can arrange a nuclear explosion in the Black Sea with a radioactive cloud and tsunami.
