“Today there was considerable activity on the Nikopol side of the Dnipro River. The Ukrainians carried out active landings and attacks on the left bank of the Dnipro River and then moved troops to the opposite bank of Nikopol, southwestward to Enerhodar.”
This sounds like the kind of river crossing Operation that you have been proposing.
Between Nikopol on the right (Ukrainian) bank, and Enerhodar on the left (Russian occupied) bank, runs the bed of one of the main highways that crossed what became the Kakhova Reservoir, before it was flooded by the dam construction.

Good idea. They’re using an old highway that’s now exposed by the receded lake. No need to worry about trucks and tanks sinking in the old muck. It looks like they crossed at the nuclear power plant.
Lordy, I pray they have spent a couple months practicing and planning that operation. Because that could go sideways quickly—especially if the pictures of the mined reactor plant are accurate.
One way or the other—this crossing cannot be merely raid like the other crossing further south. Hopefully, this is the beginning of the real thing.
