Ukrainian troops pushed towards Kherson after Moscow ordered one of the war's biggest retreats. Kyiv warned that Russian troops could still turn Kherson into a 'city of death' and it would take them at least a week to withdraw
There were indications on Thursday night that Ukrainian forces were getting closer to the city of Kherson, a port at the mouth of the Dnipro River, said a Ukrainian military analyst and a media commentator.
Russia announced on Wednesday it would withdraw from the west bank of the Dnipro that includes Kherson, the only regional capital Moscow has captured since invading Ukraine in February. Kherson province is one of four that Russian President Vladimir Putin claimed to have annexed in late September and that most countries condemned as illegal.
