REUTERS/Stringer/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsNov 14 (Reuters) - Ukrainian forces have secured a foothold on the east bank of the Dnipro River in southern Ukraine, President Volodymyr Zelenskiy's chief of staff said on Tuesday. Andriy Yermak's remarks were the first official acknowledgement that Ukrainian troops were established on the Dnipro's east bank in Kherson region. They have since shelled Kherson and other towns from new positions on the east bank. As Ukraine's four-month-old counteroffensive secures only incremental gains, Ukrainian officials have been cautious in describing the activities of their forces on the east bank. A military spokesperson this month said "not bad results" had been achieved on the east bank in forcing Russian troops to reposition.

There's been an increase in dolphin strandings around the Black Sea since the war in Ukraine began. Dolphins and porpoises talk and navigate via sound, which may be disrupted by the loud noises of war. "Russia's war against Ukraine escalated in February 2022 puts the entire Black Sea basin under a huge threat. Dolphins, porpoises, and whales have an acute sense of hearing and use echolocation to map out their environment. The areas were identified as important habitats for three species that the IUCN classifies as threatened or endangered: the Black Sea common dolphin, the Black Sea harbor porpoise, and the Black Sea bottlenose dolphin.
