The claim by the Russian Ministry of Defense that they have completed the withdrawal from Kherson is not documented. Nor has it been confirmed by the Ukrainian authorities. Russian state-controlled media claim that the withdrawal was carried out during the night so that the forces were not detected by Ukrainian drones. They also claim that all working equipment has been transported to the other side of the Dnipro river. FREED: Ukrainian soldiers have moved into a number of new areas in Kherson on Friday.

Information that came during the night about Russian losses and problems in connection with the withdrawal is not confirmed by the Ukrainian authorities. The Ukrainian General Staff announced on Friday morning only that the advance towards Kherson city continues.

During the night, the Antonivka road bridge just east of Kherson was blown up. Video and pictures show that large parts of the span have fallen into the river. The bridge was previously damaged by Ukrainian forces so that it could not be passed by vehicles. DID NOT USE THE BRIDGE: Still image from a video which should have been recorded on Thursday. It will show Russian soldiers crossing the Dnipro at the bridge, which is now completely destroyed. They walked over the partially broken pontoon bridge. Photo: Russian State Controlled Media Now it is also not possible to pass on foot. Reports in both Russian and Ukrainian social media last night also indicated that the railway bridge over the Dnipro east of Kherson city had been blown up. This bridge was already partially destroyed by the Ukrainians, and could only be used by pedestrians. A video will show what is the explosion of the bridge. There are also reports that the bridge at the dam over Nova Kakhovka has been blown up. If these reports are true, then all three bridges connecting the two banks of the Dnipro together have been completely destroyed.
