The Ukrainian Defense Forces confirmed a strike on Russian troops at the training ground on the left bank of the Kherson region. About 60 occupants were killed, according to Natalia Humeniuk, a spokesperson for the Southern Defense Forces of Ukraine.

"All this profanation with raising the flag and running away from there was enchantingly completed by the fact that yesterday we practiced at one of the training grounds where the relevant assault groups are trained," she says.

According to her, dozens of Russian occupants were killed as a result of the strike.

"The work was quite effective, at least 60 invaders will definitely not return to their combat positions, and we are still investigating the rest of the data," the spokesperson adds.

Humeniuk does not disclose the weapons used in the attack, but emphasizes that the Ukrainian Defense Forces "use all available weapons and power."

What preceded it

Late in the evening of February 21, DeepState analysts published a video of the attack, as noted, on the enemy's concentration near the village of Podo-Kalynivka on the left bank of the Kherson region.

According to the analysts, the 328th Air Assault Regiment, the 810th Separate Marine Brigade, and the 81st Self-Propelled Artillery Regiment of the Russians were attacked.

The Defense Forces of Southern Ukraine also released a video but did not specify where the attack occurred or the enemy's losses.

"They say that the leadership of the Russian occupation forces' Dnepr group came to the training ground to watch how Krynky would be "cleared"... because Shoigu was telling, not showing. They joined the enchanting show. We warned you: you will burn in hell... It is said and done," the statement reads.

Podo-Kalynivka is located about 40 kilometers from the village of Krynky, where Ukrainian soldiers are holding a foothold.

Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu recently claimed that the bridgehead was allegedly "cleared" in the Krynky area. However, the Ukrainian Armed Forces denied it.
