RT @francis_scarr: Russian TV host Andrei Norkin's realisation that his country lacks freedom of speech:

If I back the decision to withdraw from Kherson, I'm going to jail for questioning Russia's territorial integrity

And if I oppose it, I'm going to jail for discrediting the armed forces https://twitter.com/francis_scarr/status/1590729203485356034/video/1

Trusting the Russians is like trusting a monkey with a shotgun. Or your wife with your money. Not a good idea.

This is what they do, they invent a victory somewhere else so the putler fan club don't have to think about Kherson. They can just enter their safe space and fap to a fake victory in Pavlivka.

Some interesting thoughts by @LanguageIearner
I agree with most of this (except the NK dam part, i have no info on that)
Worth a read and a follow

@LanguageIearner:
A thread on continued RU/UA op in Kherson region. Sources from @Volya_media, 🇺🇦OPCOM South forces, Kherson TG, 🇺🇦soldiers + others.

TLDR: RU is abandoning its positions, collapsing to defend around Kherson city and the Kahkovka dam.

I'm using @AndrewPerpetua's map.

This image here show why Kherson City would not be flooded if the dam was blown. There are a few settlements on the left bank which are much lower, but I'm not even sure they would be in great danger as the river is extremely wide at that point.

@ViLor83 Underrated comment.

@NeilPHauer By whom?

@CanadianUkrain1 Good job.

@DefMon3:
According to Wagner associated telegram channel Grey Zone, Ukrainian Special Forces have reached the outskirts of Kherson City. I consider this a unconfirmed rumor. https://t.co/AXy2KnAVgE https://t.co/LMks9yi1Ma

@NeilPHauer Thanks. Looks sketchy.

I get a lot of questions about the Russian retreat.
Why would they announce the retreat before they leave?
Why would they announce it on TV?

Def Mon (Twitter)

Here is what I believe:
The retreat has been going on for weeks.
There is only a small number of troops left east of the river, mostly lower valued units like mobniks and goat lovers. Some will most likely be sacrificed to cover the retreat of the last units
