(4 years ago)Russia has carried out attacks with kamikaze fears in the Ukrainian region of Dnepropetrovs on the morning of November 9th. As a result of several intimidation attacks, several people have been injured and civil buildings damaged, the head of regional military administration said, as fierce battles are under way in the eastern Donjeck region as well as southern Ukraine.

“Opposers attacked the area massively with kamikaze fears. Our air defence has destroyed five drones. They have also attacked the city of Dnipro with fear, targeting logistical companies. Four workers have been injured, three of them in serious condition”, Governor Valentyn Reznicenko said.
Russian forces have also bombed Nikopol County using Grad and heavy artillery missiles. Reznicenko said air strikes have damaged private homes, a factory, power lines, but there are no people injured.
Russian forces are constantly bombing the Dipropetrovski region, located southeast of Ukraine, using various weapons. The most frequent target of the attacks is the count of Nikopol, Krivorizk and Sinelnik.
In Kiev, President Volodymyr Zelensky pledged that Ukraine would not submit any centimeter of our land to “in Donjeck, where fierce fighting is under way. He thanked Ukrainian troops who are holding positions in the Donbas region.
The main battles in the Donjeck region are under way near the city of Bahmut, Soledari and Avdjivkas.
“The objective of the invaders continues to be high. They conduct dozens of attacks every day”, Zelensky said in the late hours of November 8th.
They're having huge losses. But the order remains the same to advance towards the administrative border of the Donjeck region. We will not hand over an inch of our land”, he added.
Donjecku is one of four Ukrainian regions Russia said in September was annexed after holding referenda, which have been named false by Kiev and Western allies.
In this region, fighting between the Ukrainian Army and the Kremlin-backed separatist forces has taken place since 2014, the same year Russia annexed the Crimea.
Hard fights are also being fought on the outskirts of the town of Snihurivoka, in the southern region of Mikolajov, said Yuri Barabasov, the town's mayor, installed by Russia.
Kiril Stramousov, deputy chairman of Russia's installed administration in the southern region of Herson, said Ukrainian forces have tried to advance on three fronts, including in Snihurivoka.
Meanwhile, Vitaly Kim, the Ukrainian governor of the Mikolajvi region, suggested that Ukrainian forces have only evacuated the Russians from the area.
This information has not been independently confirmed.
Russia has mobilised hundreds of thousands of militias in recent months in an effort to stop the counteroffensives Ukraine has started to regain the territories occupied by Moscow.
Kiev-based military analyst Oleh Zhudanov said on November 8th that 21 Russian recruits have surrendered to Svatove, in the Luhansk region.
These men, of course, had nothing to eat and drink for three days and decided to surrender”, he said.
In the southern region of Herson, the battle between Ukrainian and Russian forces is under way for weeks, as both sides are trying to take over the city with the same name. Harrison is the only regional capital Russia has been in control since it began the invasion of Ukraine in late February.
Harrison is considered the most important region by the four regions that are partially occupied by Russia, and which Moscow claims has annexed. This is after crossing the only earthly route connected to the Crime Peninsula and crossing the important Dnjepper River. / REL/
