Russia plans Kherson offensive amid rising troop suicides
The Ukrainian-Tatar resistance movement, Atesh, has obtained information indicating that Russia is preparing for an assault in the Kherson region. Russian soldiers have received special instructions to assist in potentially identifying victims.
On Monday, partisans from the Atesh group published information on their official Telegram channel that the command is preparing for an assault, anticipating substantial personnel losses.
It has been reported that Russian soldiers have been instructed to write their details (name, personal number, date of birth) on a piece of paper, which should be placed in their sleeve.
Each soldier is required to have it with them at all times. This is intended to facilitate identification in the event of injury or death.
A special commission of the Russian Ministry of Defence in the Kherson region
A commission from the Russian Ministry of Defence arrived in the occupied territory of the Kherson region, at the motorised rifle regiment of territorial troops, as reported by the Ukrainian-Tatar resistance movement Atesh at the end of December.
"According to our data, the visit of the commission is directly related to the issues we wrote about earlier: the increasing number of cases of sabotage of floating units and suicides among military personnel. These incidents undermine the discipline and combat effectiveness of the units, and the Russian command views them as a serious threat. They are convinced that this could thwart the plans for the Russian military offensive on the right bank of the Kherson region," it was reported.
The Russian command fears that this situation could seriously disrupt the offensive plans of the Russian military on the right bank of the Kherson region.
