President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has congratulated the people of Ukraine on the anniversary of the liberation of the city of Kherson from Russian occupying forces.
He said “The entire south of Ukraine learned last year that Russia never comes ‘forever,’ no matter how many times they repeat it. Because Ukraine always returns – always! When we know our goal. When it’s a shared goal. When we are united. And when we unite others around the Ukrainian goal.
“Our warriors then liberated a significant part of Kherson region, provided additional protection to Mykolaiv, Odesa, and other cities and villages in the south of our state, and solidified Ukraine’s success in the battle for the Black Sea”.
Zelenskyy stressed that the Kherson Operation had cleared the right bank part of Kherson Oblast from the Russian occupying forces.
He stressed that Russia has been taking revenge for the liberation of Kherson and other freed Ukrainian cities all year long.
Zelenskyy extended his gratitude to everyone involved in protecting the people of Ukraine in Kherson.
The Ukrainian flag was officially raised on 14 November 2022, in the liberated Kherson, with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy attending the event.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy called the liberation operation launched by Ukrainian defenders in Kherson a turning point in the war, indicating that Ukraine would be victorious.
