The Russian occupation administration of Kherson Oblast has moved south from Kherson to the city of Skadovsk, and the invaders continue to force the population to evacuate.
Source: report of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine as of 18:00 on Tuesday, 1 November
Quote: "The occupiers continue to force the civilian population in the temporarily occupied territories of Kherson Oblast to move. The enemy is intimidating civilians by spreading information about a possible undermining of the dam at the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant. At the same time, the local population is deprived of any means of communication.
The Russian occupation administration of Kherson has moved to the city of Skadovsk."
Details: In general, the Russians are attempting to hold onto the temporarily occupied territories and focusing their efforts on containing Ukraine's defence forces on different fronts. They are conducting offensive actions on the Bakhmut, Avdiivka and Novopavlivka fronts.
The Russians are shelling units of the Defence Forces along the entire line of contact, building fortifications on various fronts, and conducting air reconnaissance missions.
They continue to strike critical infrastructure facilities and civilian homes in violation of international humanitarian law and the laws and customs of war.
Over the last 24 hours, the Russians have carried out 4 missile strikes, 26 air strikes, and more than 27 MLRS attacks.
The areas around more than 20 settlements came under fire, including the village of Mykilske in Zaporizhzhia Oblast, Poltava, Kramatorsk, Nikopol, and Mykolaiv.
The threat of new strikes and UAV attacks remains, particularly from the territory of the Republic of Belarus.

The occupation command is trying to use newly conscripted soldiers to compensate for the constant losses of military personnel in the units that are directly involved in combat operations in Ukraine.
Employees of the FSB are "working" with those who refuse to take part in combat operations.
