Ukraine sees no sign that Russia is leaving Kherson without a fight, a senior adviser to President has said, amid fears in that Moscow's heavily stage-managed announcement of retreat is actually a carefully laid trap.Mykhailo Podolyak, one of President Zelensky's most-senior advisers, said last night that Russian troops remain in the city and that Kyiv believes reinforcements are on their way. 'Actions speak louder than words,' he tweeted, 'Ukraine will liberate territories based on intelligence data, not staged TV statements.' Oleksiy Arestovych, another senior adviser and former head of military intelligence, was a little more optimistic but still cautious - saying that Russian forces do appear to be leaving the region 'but not as much as would be taking place if it was a full pullout or regrouping.'
