Russia will pull back from positions that don't have good defensive cover and fortify further back in good locations in which to defend. This is a smart strategy.

A rout is a rout is a rout. The purpose of pulling troops back is always to get them in a better fortified position. Usually due to losing their currently fortified positions.

You can try spin it all your want but the truth is that Russian troops are giving up ground.

Why don't you sign up for Russia? I hear they need untrained Ill equipped cannon fodder. For Putin's atrocities against civs.

with one rifle between them and no ammunition, while freezing their a@@es off and belly's grumbling.

Well forfeited indeed! A Freudian slip?

he must have been thinking how they pick spots like they did at Chernobyl where they dug trenches and foxholes to fight of attacks.

In another indication that Russia is preparing to withdraw from Kherson the remains of 18th century Russian hero and former lover of Catherin the Great , Prince Grigory Potemkin , have reportedly been removed from his tomb in Kherson’s cathedral.

The MoD tweeted: "On 26 October 2022, Saldo also claimed that Russia had removed the remains of the well-known 18th-century Russian statesman, Prince Grigory Potemkin, from his tomb in Kherson’s cathedral to east of the Dnipro.

"In the Russian national identity, Potemkin is heavily associated with the Russian conquest of Ukrainian lands in the 18th century and highlights the weight Putin almost certainly places on perceived historical justification for the invasion.

"This symbolic removal of Potemkin and the civilian exodus likely pre-empts Russian intent to expedite withdrawal from the area."

Guess we can now add grave robbery to the list.

It's possible Russians gave up the left side of the river and rebuild Kherson city on the right side of the river.
