According to the Ukrainian military, Russian troops continue to  strengthen their defense lines along the line of contact and put psychological pressure on the civilian population in the region.

This was reported by the press service of the Operational Command “South”.

Thus, in the occupied Kherson region a program of celebrating the so-called Day of Russia with celebrations and mass events has been launched. At the same time, according to available information, the occupying forces are preparing provocative shelling of such crowds of people with further accusations of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Collaborators are also spreading fake information that in Kherson the queue for Russian passports reaches 4,000 people. In fact, according to the Ukrainian side, only more than 20 occupiers received passports . The rest of the residents of Kherson deliberately ignore the forced certification of racists.
