“The withdrawal of the army group must be carried out as soon as possible, this is from two to five days. Combat-ready units are probably already in the required areas and providing cover. In five days not a single soldier will remain in Kherson. The advanced grouping is already on the banks of the Dnieper, air defense, artillery are deployed, they will provide fire cover for the withdrawal of the main forces, ”Matviychuk believes.
