In a Monday speech to the military in the recently freed Ukrainian city of Kherson, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that Ukraine is “ready for peace, peace for all our land.”
Only a few days had passed since Russian forces had left the city in the southeast when the president visited Kherson.
In a Monday intelligence briefing about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the U.K. Defense Ministry stated that “winter will bring a shift in fighting circumstances for both Russian and Ukrainian soldiers.”
“Less than 9 hours of daylight will remain each day as opposed to 15 to 16 at the height of summer.
Less attacking activity and more static defensive frontlines are the effects of this.
The report said that the rarity of night vision equipment added to the resistance to nighttime combat.”
“From December to February, the average high temperature will decrease to zero from 13 degrees Celsius in September to November.
Forces without adequate winter gear and housing are far more likely to sustain injuries from non-freezing cold.
Additionally, the “golden hour” window for saving a seriously injured soldier is cut by almost half, significantly increasing the danger of coming into touch with the enemy, “added the research.
In his daily speech on Sunday, Zelenskyy warned Ukrainians not to ignore the fact that “the situation in the Kherson area is still quite hazardous. There are mines, he stated in the beginning. All Kherson inhabitants are urged to exercise extreme caution.
According to the president, the Russian army committed the same horrors in the Kherson region as it did in other parts of our nation where it was able to infiltrate. We will track down every killer and bring them to justice. I have no doubts.
Two days after Kyiv’s forces stormed Kherson, the strategically important regional capital that Russia had taken at the outset of the war but is now in retreat, Ukrainian officials on Sunday started bringing food, water, and medication into the city.
