The situation in the region is ‘under control,’ according to deputy head Kirill Stremousov
Attempts by Ukrainian forces to break through Russia’s defenses in Kherson Region have been thwarted, the deputy head of the local administration, Kirill Stremousov, has said.

In a Telegram post on Monday, Stremousov stated that “everything is under control in the Nikolayev direction,” despite Kiev’s efforts to retake the region. He noted that Ukraine’s forces had advanced southward along the Dnieper River to the village of Dudchany before “taking a beating” from Russian Aerospace Forces.
The official admitted that the Ukrainians were able to advance a little bit, but noted that the region’s defense systems were working and that “at the moment, the situation is completely under control.”

Stremousov concluded by urging people not to give into panic because of what they hear and read on social media. “This is not Kharkov, this is not [Krasny] Liman, we are holding the fence,” he proclaimed.
Russia’s Defense Ministry has also confirmed repelling the attack, stating that over 400 Ukrainian servicemen, 43 tanks and 89 units of special military equipment were eliminated in the Nikolayev-Krivoy Rog area.

The announcement comes as Kiev’s forces have mounted large-scale offensives along several points of engagement with Russia. On Saturday, Russian troops were forced to withdraw from their defensive positions in the town of Krasny Liman in the Donetsk People’s Republic after they were nearly encircled by Ukrainian forces, which had brought in reserves and reached a “considerable superiority in men and material.”
It has been noted, however, that the Ukrainian side has been suffering significant casualties in the offensive, having reportedly lost over 500 soldiers (200 dead, 320 injured), as well as ten tanks and 25 infantry fighting vehicles during the attack on Krasny Liman, according to the Russian Defense Ministry.

Kiev’s offensive comes after President Vladimir Putin signed treaties on the accession of the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics, as well as the Russian-held regions of Kherson and Zaporozhye, into the Russian Federation on Friday. The move came after the four territories overwhelmingly voted in favor of joining Russia in referendums held between September 23 and 27.
Ukraine and Western nations have refused to recognize the results of the referendums and have vowed to never acknowledge the regions as being part of Russia.

I have just heard in DW, reporting a 'key part of Kherson taken by Ukraine'!
Then they add 'Russia losing on battlefield, has no strategy and is going to relay on Nuclear Weapon'!!!!
I bet others, BBC, France24, ABC will just copy/pass the very same that I can't bother to find out!

It appears Kiev's new military strategy is to drown Russian troops with Ukrainian soldiers blood.
Seems strange, but okay I guess.

Just look at what isn’t being debated here. Russia sent only 100K troops into Ukraine alone with no other country assisting it. Russia has went up against Ukraine, NATO, and the EU with everything including the kitchen sink thrown at them and they held their own and have taken 4 massive territories. Russia alone accomplished this astonishing feat while also restoring its economy and strengthening its currency while the entire Western world is on the brink of total collapse. Again Russia alone has done this with only 100K troops. This is why the WEST and NATO are shitting their pants.

What a surprise. Western lead forces fail again just like Afghanistan, Iraq and everywhere the US has tried to be important. Why people still believe in the Wests military power after they have since forever with every military engagement they have pursued. The last time the US won any war without other countries help was their own civil war. That was one in the win column and one in the loss column. Even during that war the foreign influence was great. France and Britain supported the southern slave owners and Russia supported the north. Can you say Russian naval blockade of New York harbor? Yeah the Russians saved the USA from being a democrat run slave owning country. Seems that may be why the demorats hate Russia so much. Seriously look up that history and shock your cognitive dissonance.

Russia is one of the 5 permanent UN members. They came together to sign a pact that no country will be allowed to do what Russia is doing in Ukraine.
That no country will be allowed to forcefully take over the territory of another country. All member countries are signatory to this pact.
Russia will only end up bankrupting themselves by continuing to hold on to Ukrainian territories.

The other winning aspect of this for Russia is that they're extracting a tremendous toll on USA's economic contributions to Ukraine, forcing great expenditures of aid and weaponry that is being blown to bits. USA's Defense Secretary Austin says that USA is in it for "as long as it takes." This confused man seems clueless that his boss, Joe Biden, is going for broke. Meaning these expenses that Russia is forcing upon USA are not sustainable, despite Austin's delusions.

The Ukrainian losses is HUGE. Why do not the Western MSM talking about the Ukrainian losses of tanks, armored vehicles and soldiers in these PR offensives? Most of the 260 M72 tanks from Poland and Czech Republic destroyed or in need of repair. So unless replacement comes the Ukrainian army back to using broomsticks and shovels. Slovenia will send 28 T55 tanks made after WW2 and modernized in the 1990's, these tanks is already obsolete. How can Ukraine continue this war when the Russian reinforcements enter the battlefields? Every day Russian artillery, air force, rockets, and drones take out tanks, armored vehicles, so it is very easy to see how this will end.

All NATO members are assisting Ukraine with money and arms, how long can Russia hold on without going bankrupt. Russia was chased out of Afghanistan by the Mujahideen with the help of USA alone, imagine facing the whole NATO.

The West can't do anything different than they have been doing since Feb.
They can only impose further sanctions which has been very successful (lmao) and continue their cycle of failed tactics.
North Korea/Iran are the most sanctioned countries in the world by the Western parasites and they're still better developed than every African country that sold their sovereignty to the Western neocolnialst.
The puppet leaders of these developing countries who ignored their national interests in subservience to the West made their citizens vulnerable to modern day slavery.
Western weapons have been mostly blown to bits, Russia needs Ukraine/West to keep sending military combatants to the frontlines to complete the aim of demilitarization/denazification with less destruction of Ukrainian infrastructure.
Unlike Libya, Iraq and Afghanistan, the NATO/West lead by the US cannot invade Russia.
Russia has outlined the conditions under which it'll use nuclear weapons.
The United States is the only country in the world that has used nuclear weapons twice, destroying the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan. And they created a precedent. Russia’s military doctrine forbids nuclear weapons from being used unless the country is targeted by enemy nuclear attack first, or a conventional attack so severe that it is deemed to threaten the existence of the state. The United States does not place such restrictions on its nukes, and “reserves the right to use” them on a preemptive basis, even against non-nuclear armed adversaries.
There's massive inflation across the West, uprisings, decline in the standard of living, riots, protests, regime changes, economic constraints, recession, unemployment etc.
The Western empire is self destructing and has collapsed like the invincible Roman Empire.

Anything coming from Kiev or the Western media turns out to be propaganda.
Just like the Ghost of Kiev.
