Ukrainian soldiers found abandoned weapons and ammunition in a village near the southern city of Kherson on Friday (November 11), as Russian troops retreated from the western bank of the Dnipro river.

Reuters reporters on Friday saw a warehouse full of mortar shells and boxes containing ammunition left behind by Russian troops in a village of Blahodatne, 20 km (12 miles) north of Kherson.

Villagers said about 100 Russians had held the village for eight months and throughout the occupation broke into vacant homes and looted them, removing furniture, televisions, stoves and refrigerators.

They had killed a man who approached too close to their trenches and taken away two other men and a young woman whose fate remains unknown.

The Russians withdrew in trucks without a fight on Wednesday night and Ukrainian troops moved in on Thursday, the villagers said.
