Krynky
Krynky () is a village in Oleshky urban hromada, Kherson Raion, Kherson Oblast, Ukraine. It is located on the east bank of the Dnieper River. History Russo-Ukrainian War Russian invasion of Ukraine During the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Krynky came under Russian control. As a result of the destruction of the Kakhovka Dam in June 2023, Krynky was almost completely submerged, according to Tetiana Hasanenko, head of the Ukrainian military administration of the hromada. Most of its residents fled to neighboring Kozachi Laheri, which was also largely flooded. Ukrainian authorities lost contact with the population of the community, as electricity and internet were completely lost for days. On 30 October 2023, during an incursion across the Dnieper, elements of the Ukrainian 37th and 38th separate Marine brigades had advanced to and recaptured Krynky. Although no heavy equipment had been brought across the river, the Marines were supported by MRLs and artillery from the right b ...

Dnieper Campaign (2022–present)
The Dnieper campaign is a series of clashes that are occurring along the river Dnieper (Dnipro) in Kherson Oblast, Ukraine, as part of the fighting in the southern theater of the Russo-Ukrainian War. Specifically, this campaign refers to clashes along the river between the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Russian Armed Forces during and after the Ukrainian counteroffensive to liberate Kherson.

The Kinburn Spit was not occupied by Russian forces at the beginning of the war. Rather, four months later on 10 June 2022 Russian forces took the spit after overcoming resistance by Ukrainian forces there.

Destruction Of The Kakhovka Dam
The Kakhovka Dam in Ukraine was breached in the early hours of 6 June 2023, causing extensive flooding along the lower Dnieper river, also called the Dnipro, in Kherson Oblast. The dam was under the control of the Russian military, which had seized it in the early days of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Many experts have concluded that Russian forces likely blew up a segment of the dam to hinder the planned Ukrainian counter-offensive. Russian authorities have denied the accusation. The dam was about tall and long; the breached segment was about long. Two days after the breach, the average level of flooding in the Kherson region was , according to local officials. There were signs of an explosion at the time of the breach. Both Ukrainian and Russian sources reported hearing blasts from the dam's hydroelectric power station, regional seismometers detected explosions in the area, and a satellite detected the infrared heat signature of an explosion.

Village
A village is a clustered human settlement or community, larger than a hamlet but smaller than a town (although the word is often used to describe both hamlets and smaller towns), with a population typically ranging from a few hundred to a few thousand. Though villages are often located in rural areas, the term urban village is also applied to certain urban neighborhoods. Villages are normally permanent, with fixed dwellings; however, transient villages can occur. Further, the dwellings of a village are fairly close to one another, not scattered broadly over the landscape, as a dispersed settlement. In the past, villages were a usual form of community for societies that practice subsistence agriculture, and also for some non-agricultural societies. In Great Britain, a hamlet earned the right to be called a village when it built a church. [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

''The Kyiv Independent'' is an English-language Ukrainian online newspaper founded in 2021 by former staff of the ''Kyiv Post'' and media consultancy Jnomics Media. The online newspaper is also active on Twitter. Founding In October 2021, disputes arose between employees of the ''Kyiv Post'' and the owner of the newspaper.

The owner is Syrian-born major investor Adnan Kivan (Kadorr Group, which owns Channel Odessa 7). Brian Bonner, the former CEO of the ''Kyiv Post,'' said in April 2022 that the newspaper's "fragmentary reporting" had brought it into conflict with every Ukrainian government it dealt with so far, including then current Zelensky's government.
