Fog of war: Reports from Ukraine and abroad indicate the continuation of the Ukrainian counter-attack in Kherson district in the south of the country.
According to various reports, the Ukrainian army is advancing on several axes and a security source in Ukraine told "Israel Hayom" that "good progress" has been achieved in several parts of the front.
The British Ministry of Defense this morning published an intelligence assessment according to which the Ukrainian army manages to take advantage of the Russian "thin defense system" from various points on the front and advance a long distance from the starting positions of the attack.
According to the assessment of British intelligence, the Russians will try in the coming days to bring reserve units from the fighting zone in the east into the battle, with the aim of thickening the defense system and repelling the attack.

Officials in Ukraine also expressed satisfaction with the progress of the attack.
Yury Sulavsky, deputy head of the Ukrainian Kherson district, said that the Ukrainian army recorded "successes" in the southern Kherson, Khagovka and Bryslav districts.
"Now is the time to support our army, not to talk about the specific successes of our guys in the field," said the official who refused to reveal more details.
The Ukrainian government reports little on what is happening on the battlefield, in an attempt to maintain ambiguity vis-à-vis the Russians and not to provide information that could lead to a change in Russian preparations on the ground.
In the meantime, a series of precise hits on munitions warehouses, bridges and railroads took place in the past day, part of a tremendous effort by the Ukrainian army to sabotage the Russian assembly line and thereby weaken its ability to resist the attack in Kherson.
In the Crimean Peninsula, a large fuel storage tank caught fire, and local experts believe that it was a partisan attack that used explosives or an armed drone to cause a fire at the site. In Kherson province, logistical facilities and a headquarters of the Russian army caught fire, one near the town of Chernivtsi and the nearby military airport La. In addition, a large ammunition depot was destroyed in the morning hours in the town of Tokmak.

In the meantime, the Reuters news agency reported that a convoy of inspectors from the United Nations Atomic Energy Agency left Kiev for the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, where they are expected to conduct a review of the complex that has been hit several times by gunfire over the past few weeks. In Kiev, they claim that the Russian army shelled a town this morning next to the complex.
