Russian Kherson Command Post Destoyed

Arestovych on destruction of occupiers' command post in Kherson region: "It is better than Chornobaivka"

There were about 50 russian senior officers there.


The UAF (Armed Forces of Ukraine) destroyed the forward command post of the occupying forces in the Kherson region.

The Adviser to the Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, Oleksiy Arestovych, announced this information.

"We covered the forward command post of the army level in the Kherson region with shells. It is better than Chornobaivka. There were about 50 russian senior officers there. Their fate is unknown, but I think it is a sad one. The explosions were going on for a long time. The forward command post. Maybe one more (killed) army commander was added," - he said.

On 18 April 2022, the Ukrainian militaries, for the 16th time in a row, struck at the airport in the municipality of Chornobaivka in the Kherson region. This is where the russian occupiers organized stock of their military equipment.


That's the full article. Posted in GD, trying to find more sources but many Ukrainian news sources are reporting on this developing situation. I would venture to guess we'll hear more about it in the near future.

About the source, LB.Ua: Launched in June 2009 as the partner website for the Levyy Bereg weekly, LB.ua has since evolved into an independent news and analysis project.

In 2013, the website's monthly audience exceeded 3 million visitors and continued to grow.

Reporting by LB.ua is not impartial because its editorial office seeks to move away from "Western-style journalism", where journalists simply collect comments without having the right to express their own opinion.

LB.ua uses intellectual input by Gorshenin Institute, a Kyiv-based think-tank.
