Ukraine: the army denies having lost its bridgehead on the occupied bank of the Dnieper. “We officially say that this information is false,” the Southern Command of the Ukrainian forces said on social media.
The day before, Vladimir Putin and his Defense Minister, Sergei Shoigu, had claimed to have regained control of the village of Krynky. This bridgehead was one of the few successes of Ukraine's summer counter-offensive. But it never allowed kyiv's forces to advance south.
