The Russian-appointed “head” of Kherson, Vladimir Saldo, also made the announcement of his death in a Telegram post, writing: “It is extremely difficult for me to report that Kirill Stremousov passed away today. He passed away while traveling through the Kherson area in an automobile accident. According to Russian official media, Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu ordered the removal of Russian soldiers from the Dnipro’s west bank later on Wednesday.
Since Ukrainian troops overran the northern Kharkiv area in September, this would represent the war’s most important military development. As Ukrainian soldiers march in two directions into the city of Kherson, Shoigu gave the command.
