Ukraine focusses on hitting Russian supply lines

 Reuters:

Ukraine's military said its artillery hit a Russian ammunition depot near a key bridge in the south on Friday and added it now had the ability to strike nearly all of Moscow's supply lines in the occupied region.

The military said the attack killed 11 Russian soldiers in the depot in the village of Vesele, about 80 miles (130 km) down the vast Dnipro river from the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant.

There was no immediate comment from Russian authorities on the report of the attack in Kherson province, or the purported reach of Ukraine's firepower. Reuters could not confirm the reports independently.

Natalia Humeniuk, spokesperson for Ukraine's southern military command, said Ukraine has nearly all of Russia's southern supply routes under "fire control," meaning that Ukraine is able to hit them with ranged weapons at will.

"Our forces are controlling the situation in the south, despite the enemy trying to bring in reserves even though almost all their transport and logistical arteries have been hit or are under our fire control," she added in a national broadcast.

Vesele - which is near the Kakhovskyi bridge, just metres away from a large dam - is a vital crossing point that Ukraine has attacked to try to weaken Moscow's grip on a sliver of land it occupies on the Dnipro's western bank.

Ukraine says it has been able to hit dozens of Russian ammunition depots thanks to Western deliveries of long-range multiple-launch missile systems, such as U.S.- supplied HIMARS.

Disrupting supply lines with long-range weapons is a way Ukraine can hamper the Russian operations without putting its troops in harm's way.  It appears to be effective in slowing the Russians.
