Russia hastily responded with reinforcements from its Eastern Military District’s 35th Combined Arms Army, including elite paratrooper battalions, to reinforce the Southern Russian Military District’s 49th Combined Arms Army which has held the area since March. It is likely to use the paratroopers as a mobile reserve to plug gaps in the line and bring together the depleted regular infantry and poorly equipped contributions from the so-called Donetsk People’s Republic that make up the bulk of the Russian force there. Dmytro, a Kherson resident who asked The Telegraph not to use his last name, said he expected Ukrainians to retake the city and that restive Russian forces there had stepped up arrests and begun looting. “In recent days, the number of cases of Russian soldiers abducting men from their homes has increased. Nothing more is known about them. Just in the last hour I was sent more photos of the missing people,” he said. “The people of Kherson are waiting for the Ukrainian army to raise the Ukrainian flag over the city. There will be no holidays because the Russians have already killed thousands. “I think the Russians are already ready to leave Kherson and are now engaged in plundering as much as possible to return to Russia with the booty. They have already stolen many cars and robbed empty houses.” Mr Stremousov, the designated Russian official, was accused of fleeing after a video released saying the city would “never again be under Nazi rule” turned out to have been filmed in the Russian city of Voronezh. Dmytro Podolyak, an adviser to Mr Zelensky, said Ukraine would organize evacuation corridors for Crimeans and urged those unable to leave to stay away from military installations on the occupied peninsula during the offensive.
It can take months to reach the city of Kherson
The offensive is unlikely to be swift and could take months to reach Kherson, others warned. One Western official said: “Think Kharkiv not Amiens – stressing Russian forces on a broad front. It will be useless no [lightning assaults] hopefully with sustainable profits. “Russian forces have been strengthened and consolidated, but let’s see if they are resilient and really not going to abandon their own troops again.” Amiens was the British offensive that broke the stalemate on the Western Front in 1918, leading to the end of the First World War. Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the European Commission, also accused Putin on Tuesday of trying to “blackmail” Europe by cutting gas supplies. “The electricity market is no longer a functioning market because there is one actor – Putin – who is systematically trying to destroy it and manipulate it,” he said.
