“Absolutely all attempts to force the Dnieper on high-speed boats and land on the left bank to carry out sabotage actions are being suppressed,” TASS quoted him as saying.

He also added that it is difficult to cross the Dnieper with small forces.

“Our military has already completed the construction of fortifications along the entire coastline, which stretches from Energodar in the Zaporozhye region almost to the Black Sea, to the Kinburn Spit,” he said.

According to Saldo, the Ukrainian command, at the direction of NATO advisers, dooms its subordinates to the obviously impossible tasks of forcing the Dnieper.

Earlier, the press secretary of the acting head of the Kherson region, Vladimir Vasilenko, said that the Armed Forces of Ukraine tried to force the Dnieper in the Kherson region, but their actions were stopped.
