-

UKRAINE’S president has vowed to keep pushing Russian forces out of his country after they withdrew from Kherson, leaving behind devastatio­n, hunger and booby traps.

Kherson residents hugged and kissed the arriving Ukrainian troops in rapturous scenes.

In his video address, President Volodymyr Zelensky vowed there will be “many more such greetings” of Ukrainian soldiers liberating Russianhel­d territory.”

British Defence Secretary Ben Wallace said the Kremlin would be “worried” by the loss of Kherson but warned against underestim­ating Moscow.

“If they need more cannon fodder, that is what they’ll be doing,” he said.
