I guess once you've had your elite assault forces slaughtered on the Zaparozhye front, might as well shoot your shot on an even lower-percentage offensive across a massive river:


❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kherson direction: new tactical group “Normandy” and Ukrainian symbolism
situation as of 17.00 September 15, 2023

🔻In the island zone of the Dnieper, the situation remains the same: the Ukrainian Armed Forces are still sending reconnaissance groups to consolidate on the islands, from which they plan to attack the left bank of the Dnieper in the future.

▪️Over the past 24 hours, one boat attempted to deliver personnel to the northwestern part of Aleshkinsky Island, where it was destroyed by concentrated rocket artillery fire.

▪️And another watercraft moored to Kozatsky Island from the northeast, where it was sunk by an accurate artillery strike. Moreover, a few hours earlier, two DRGs had landed from the north.

❗️The creation of another tactical group - “Normandy” - looks interesting. This is already the third formation of this kind in the Kherson direction : there are also “Grom” and “Omaha”.

And the name itself clearly alludes to the operation of the Allied forces to land troops in Normandy in June 1944. Such symbolism is characteristic of the Ukrainian authorities, and it is likely that this group will take an active part in crossing the Dnieper and storming the Kherson region.
