UK intelligence: Ukrainian forces make gradual advances in Kherson

"Russia is likely concentrating equipment on the front line in the direction of Siversk, approximately 8km west of the current Russian front line. Its forces are likely pausing to replenish before undertaking new offensive operations in Donetsk Oblast," Report informs, citing the UK Ministry of Defense.

"Ukrainian forces continue to make gradual advances in the south-western Kherson sector. There is a realistic possibility that Russia's immediate tactical objective will be Siversk, as its forces attempt to advance towards its most likely operational goal of the Sloviansk-Kramatorsk urban area," UK Ministry tweeted.
