Ukrainian forces cross to the Russian-held east bank of the Dnipro and enter Krynky

Reportedon one origin only: 0 distinct origins, 0 tied to no party.

Ukraine's General Staff reported Russian air strikes on villages on the east bank of the Dnipro in Kherson oblast, implying a Ukrainian presence there. The Institute for the Study of War, citing Russian military bloggers, reported a Ukrainian assault across the river larger than earlier raids. By mid-November ISW assessed larger than usual Ukrainian operations on the east bank, and the southern command said Russian troops were being pushed back. Geolocated footage analysed by ISW showed Ukrainian forces entering the village of Krynky in October, which became the main bridgehead; Ukraine's Marine Corps claimed heavy Russian losses there in November, and Ukraine withdrew from the village by July 2024.
