Russian milblogger channels said an amphibious Ukrainian force launched a successful surprise raid on Tuesday.
Fresh battlefield reports say that Ukrainian forces may have won a valuable foothold on the Russian-occupied side of the Dnieper River—called the Dnipro in Ukrainian. For months, this has served as the frontline between the two armies stretching from the Black Sea coast almost to the city of Zaporizhzhia in southeastern Ukraine.
The reported incursion is said to have occurred on the left bank near the settlement of Kozachi Laheri, equidistant between Kherson and"Several Russian milbloggers reported on August 8 that Ukrainian forces landed up to seven boats, each carrying around six to seven people, on the east bank of the Dnipro near the settlement of Kozachi Laheri, broke through Russian defensive lines, and advanced up to 800 meters [875 yards] deep," the ISW wrote.
