Map of military operations and the situation on the Kherson region fronts on 15 September
The Ukrainian Armed Forces are still trying to achieve success at the bridgehead near Andreevka. However, they have changed tactics - now instead of piling on the "meat", they are trying to infiltrate in small groups to the rear of the Russians.
⚔️The situation on the fronts in the last 24 hours:
▫️Posad-Pokrovsky and Alexandrovsky sections of the front:
The fiercest fighting is taking place for Kiselevka, though online. In reality, the settlement is controlled by the Russian army, as evidenced by numerous videos.
▫️Andreivka section of the front:
The Ukrainian Armed Forces do not lose hope of breaking through to Novaya Kakhovka and Berislav. However, the Russian Armed Forces have their plans here. Over the past 24 hours, the Russian Air Force carried out several strikes on a dam in Kryvyi Rih on the Ingulets river. Because of this, the water level in the river has risen and the crossing of equipment has become more difficult. We shall remind you that the Ukrainian armed forces can supply their grouping on the other bank of the Inhultsya river only by employing pontoon crossings. Kyiv attempted to eliminate the consequences of the strike on the dam by blowing up another dam. The extent to which this helped lower the water level in the river remains unknown. The AFU assault in the Davydov Brod area has been successfully suppressed by the Russian military.
▫️Olginsko-Miroliubovsky section of the front:
The AFU attempted to storm Russian positions near Kostromka and Novopetrovka. Kiev's units ran into the Airborne Troops, suffered significant losses, and rolled back to their initial positions.
🚀Flights:
Late last night the AFU shelled Novaya Kakhovka and Kherson. In Kherson, four people were killed in the shelling, including two children.
🎯Calibre:
Russian air force struck a dam in Kryvyi Rih and destroyed several AFU artillery positions near Nikopol. Kiev shelled Energodar and Zaporizhzhya NPP from there.
Of interest:
The massive use of kamikaze drones, apparently Iranian-made, has been seen in destroying AFU positions near Nikopol. Their deliveries were previously reported.

western massmedia picked thankfully the new big lie up and pushes top head "mass graves found near Izium" i can never trust our western massmedia ever again.
The list of arms from the United States to Ukraine is sobering. NATO cannot be considered to not be at war with Russia given this level of support. Much of that stuff is dust now, but nevertheless, it shouldn't have happened. I would be all for an embargo of any American weapons being banned from export, but sadly it's not going to happen.
