Ukrainians hold out in east, prepare battle for Kherson

KYIV, 28 October 2022, (TON): Ukrainian troops are holding out against repeated attacks by Russian forces in two eastern towns while those at the southern front are poised to battle for the strategic Kherson region, which Russia appears to be reinforcing.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said in a Wednesday evening video address that there would be good news from the front but he gave no details.

He did not mention what was happening in Kherson, which officials and military analysts have predicted will be one of the most consequential battles of the war since Russia invaded Ukraine eight months ago.

Zelensky said “the most severe fighting in eastern Ukraine was taking place near Avdiivka, outside Donetsk, and Bakhmut.”
