Ukraine is concerned that Russia is attempting to lure Ukrainian forces into a trap

There are fears that Russia is faking a withdrawal from the southern Kherson region. However, Ukrainian officials believe it’s a trap.

A spokeswoman for Ukrainian forces, Natalia Humeniuk told Ukrainian media they are “seeing objective evidence” that Russian forces are not retreating the area.

“Russian troops are trying hard to convince everyone they are retreating but at the same time we are seeing objective evidence that they are staying.”

“There are military units that were based there, and a lot of military equipment is stationed there, and their battle positions are set there as well. The battle positions that were set on the left bank will be used for the support of the battle positions on the right bank.”

It’s follows an uncertain time on the ground in the region, with Moscow relocating citizens.

This is a move Ukraine insists is in line with its trick.

“We understand that Russians are trying to create an illusion of not being there in order to lure Ukrainian forces into the nearby settlements, and the settlements are usually where tough street fighting takes place,” she said.

It comes as Russian forces continue its attacks on Ukraine’s critical energy infrastructure.

However, we can now confirm the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power plant is back up and running. The plant is crucial to supplying power throughout the country.
