Russian state news agencies initially reported that Moscow was moving troops to more favorable positions east of the Dnipro River in Ukraine, only to retract the information shortly after. Meanwhile, Ukrainian troops have secured a foothold in the south and are seeking to reignite their counteroffensive with daring river crossings across the Dnipro River. Ukrainian troops have reportedly widened their bridgehead on the left bank of the Dnieper River in the Kherson region and near Verbove in Zaporizhzhia Region. This development marks the first time Ukraine has confirmed a foothold on the Dnipro River's eastern bank, potentially paving the way to Crimea. Despite the daring river crossings, Ukrainian troops are outnumbered by Russian forces. Russia has acknowledged that Ukrainian soldiers have established positions on the occupied Dnipro River's east-bank side of Kherson Oblast.
