A Ukrainian official says the country’s military will retake Kherson — the first major city Russia’s troops captured — later today. Markian Lubkivskyi, an adviser to the Ukrainian defense minister tells the BBC: “I believe that today the city will be fully under the control of Ukrainian armed forces. “We have finished in the last two days the operation in the Kyiv region so other armed forces are now focused on the southern part trying to get free Kherson and some other Ukrainian cities,” he says, according to Sky News.
