Kremlin-installed official says ‘we are not going to surrender’ before expected Ukraine counteroffensive
The head of the Russian occupation administration in Kherson has spoken of plans to move up to 60,000 people across the Dnieper River and then into Russia as Moscow attempts to cling to the captured city before a Ukrainian counteroffensive.
The Kremlin-installed occupation official Vladimir Saldo said Russia would transport 50,000-60,000 people to the Dnieper’s east bank – and then to Russia – at a rate of 10,000 people each day. “We are not going to surrender the city,” he said in a nationally televised interview on Wednesday.
