Ukrainians forces advance after Russia orders retreat of Kherson

Ukrainian troops advanced towards Kherson in the south on Thursday (November 10) after Moscow ordered one of the war's biggest retreats.

This video, aired on state television, shows soldiers in a square in the village of Snihurivka, about 35 miles north of Kherson city.

Greeted by residents with the Ukrainian flag fluttering. Reuters has verified the location.

Moscow ordered its troops on Wednesday (November 9) to withdraw from the entire Russian-held pocket on the west bank of the Dnipro River.

That includes Kherson city, the only regional capital Russia has captured in nine months of war.

Mykhail Podolyak, an adviser to President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, warned Russia planned to mine everything from apartments to sewers and shell Kherson from the other side of the river.

As a child during the 70s and 80s, I remember the concern about the possible invasion of the mighty Red army. Shame we didn't know back then what a bunch of useless disorganised cowards they were.

Imagine the mines and booby-traps they have to deal with. That whole city is going to have to be searched door to door.
