The intelligence noted that the Ukrainian military gave priority to operations in this sector, building small bridgeheads on the left bank of the Dnieper. The British Ministry of Defense believes that the Russian Federation was probably alert before possible attacks by the Armed Forces across the river since it removed its troops from the right bank of the Kherson region.
British intelligence stressed that the Left Bank of Kherson region is under the control of the newly created 18th General Army after some parts of this formation, which were previously in the area, were relocated to the Orikhiv direction. The enemy retained considerable artillery potential within the radius of the river, convinced of intelligence. In addition, in the area the decisive factor is the ability to conduct accurate artillery fight.
We will remind, analysts of the Institute of War Study in the report for October 24 reported that the Ukrainian sabotage and intelligence group could land on the left bank of the Dnieper. In particular, Ukrainian fighters could capture a section of the road that connects the Poles, Cossacks Legeri and Krynka in the Kherson region.
On October 24, the Deputy Head of the General Staff of the Defense Forces of Estonia, Lieutenant Colonel Tomas Vyali, stated that the Armed Forces could perform a large operation on the left bank of the Dnieper in the Kherson region, until the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation concentrated their forces near Avdiivka of Donetsk region. Instead, the enemy has transferred additional reserves to the region, because he probably awaits actions from the Armed Forces, he is convinced.
