According to Vladimir Saldo, governor of the Kherson region, Russian forces are currently engaged in combat to retake the «Korabel» district of Kherson, located on Karantinny Island. He stated that Russian troops are actively striking Ukrainian positions in the area.
Saldo explained that the island remains under the operational control of the Russian «Dnepr» grouping, although Ukrainian fighters continue to take shelter in residential and industrial buildings on its territory.
The governor described Karantinny Island as a tool of tactical pressure on the enemy. He noted that it is crucial to keep Ukrainian forces in a state of constant tension, undermining their confidence both at the front line and in the rear.
Saldo added that the psychological impact of such actions is already visible. He emphasized that the Russian command will determine the island’s role in the further liberation of Kherson based on the evolving battlefield situation.
