The Russian army is gathering forces to prevent the Armed Forces of Ukraine from crossing the Dnipro - military.


Russian troops are reinforcing their defenses in the area of the Kinburn Spit to prevent the Ukrainian military from crossing the Dnipro. This was reported by the spokesperson of the Southern Defense Forces, Vladislav Voloshin. He also noted that Russian troops are conducting training on crossing the river zone of the Dnipro near the Antonivskyi Bridge.
Fierce battles are currently ongoing for the island of Kruglyk and near the Antonivskyi Bridge. Russian troops are trying to seize these strategic positions. However, according to Voloshin, he believes that the Russian troops will not be able to successfully cross the Dnipro, as such an operation requires many resources and is complex.
