The Kremlin-installed officials who had been occupying the southern Ukrainian city of Kherson said on Saturday that they had set up a new administrative capital in a seaside resort town about 110 miles to the east.
“Today, the temporary administrative capital of the Kherson region is Henichesk,” Aleksandr Fomin, a representative of the region’s administration, told reporters. “All the main authorities are concentrated there.”
The move comes less than a month and a half after Moscow moved to annex the region, with its capital in Kherson city. But as Ukrainian forces advanced with a counteroffensive aimed at recapturing territory in the south, Kremlin-appointed administrators in the city relocated earlier this month and urged civilians to evacuate.

I wonder if City Hall now has wheels?
Snake, you are either deliberately working for the Demonrats or are stupid beyond belief. We face an ongoing coup and the destruction of our Republic and all you can do is focus on a war 5000 miles away overseas. Go to DU and plague us no more.
Wait until the snow flys - then you will see the truth of what’s going on.

The Russians can't keep their conscripts provided with food and ammunition? What makes you think they can provide them with proper winter uniforms. The Ukrainians on the other hand have lots of winter uniforms donated to them from NATO countries.
My local gun shop has some great deals on used Russian rifles. Never been fired, only dropped once.
They are not “occupying forces” therefore does not apply.
The DPR, LPR, Kherson, and Zaporozhye all held a Referenda for joining Russia.
Russia and the State Duma passed laws on accepting DPR, LPR, Kherson and Zaporozhye regions into Russia.
The DPR, LPR, Kherson, and Zaporozhye, along with Crimea, will never be apart of Ukraine again. It is Russian territory.
those referendums were rigged, no one recognizes their validity
so, all those areas are still owned by Ukraine
Like the Serbian referenda to create Kosovo was “rigged” huh?
GTFO.
Well that’s what you want to believe - reality is another story yet to be revealed.
Many, if not most, are interested in several topics.
Strategically located near Crimea in case they have to retreat.
As I noted earlier, the West is heavily invested in the belief that winning the information war will translate into battlefield success for Ukraine. Yet, we have seen how the “success” of the U.S. information wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria have turned out. Money pits that have swallowed trillions of U.S. tax payer dollars with no actual success on the ground, where it counts.
Both of these cataclysmic wars — the Civil War and World War II — are relevant to the carnage unfolding in Ukraine. The facts are very simple:
Fact one — Ukraine’s economy is in tatters and there is no viable path to restore what it was on February 24, 2022.
Fact two — Ukraine is totally dependent on Western aid to keep it army in the field.
Fact three — Ukraine does not have a viable air force and cannot provide close air support to its front line troops. This means any Ukrainian advance on the ground is dependent on the limited armor and artillery units still intact.
Fact four — Ukraine’s ability to produce electricity and power is being steadily degraded and there is no short-term solution to keep the lights on.
Fact five — Russia has not committed its front line forces and high tech weaponry to the fight.
Fact six — Russia’s economy is strong despite Western efforts to sunder it.
Fact seven — Russia is economically self-sufficient. It does not need foreign exports to sustain its industrial base but the world does need critical products and minerals that only Russia produces.
Fact eight — Russian factories are operating 24/7, producing essential military equipment and technology to keep its forces in the fight.
Fact nine — Russia can mobilize and train new troops on its own territory without fear of attack from Ukraine. Ukraine cannot.
The United States and NATO are deluded. They are wielding power like the mean girls in high school, i.e. they are shunning Putin and won’t let him sit at their lunch table. They remain convinced that will crush him. What they did not count on is that Putin is building his own cafeteria and will eat the food he wants and a table he controls. In fact, many of the countries in Europe need essential resources that Russia supplies. It is just a matter of time before those girls try to get a seat at Putin’s table.
It is true that Russia relinquished, at least for now, the portion of Kherson that sits to the west of the Dnieper River. But it controls the rest of Kherson to the east of the river. If Ukraine wants Crimea it will have to cross the Dnieper and fight its way to Crimea. Ukraine does not have the military resources to do that; even with the help of the United States and NATO.
No one else recognizes Russia’s annexation.
LOL
None of those sector’s capitals are still within Russian
control.
Now Russia is using empty telephone booths as new
capitals.
Bwa ha ha ha...
Countries not recohnising annexations is a red herring. How many countries recognise the annexation of The Golan? Hmmm And yet Israel is not going to surrender the strategic Golan in the same way Russia will never relinquish Crimea.
Russia has a real problem with that.
IT and nobody held a gun to its head, signed off on the
Crimea being Ukraine territory, and at the same time
promised to respect the borders.
As for the Golan Heights, they pretty much govern themselves
unless they attack Israel, which anyone would do.
Israel provides utilities to the region, and beyond that it
really doesn’t interfere.
The people on the West Bank and Golan Heights have been
offered peace proposals that would have given them complete
autonomy, but Yasser Arafat acting on their behalf, refused
them.
In those proposals, the Arabs on the West Bank and Gaza
go almost everything they ever dreamed of. I don’t recall
any large sticking points.
Arafat didn’t desire peace.
The policy has been Israel’s destruction, and that’s all
they will settle for.
Ты тратишь такие усилия на просвещение амеров. Но зачем? В конце концов в течении войны мы все увидим как дело обернется. И то что ты им сегодня говоришь будет воспринято лучше когда будет перед глазами реальность.
