The report from a commander within the Dnepr group of forces notes that a specialized acoustic system, known as Yazykoved, was deployed by units operating in the Kherson direction against the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The information came through RIA News, carried by a commander who spoke on the matter.

The purpose of this device appears to be psychological in nature, targeting the morale and behavior of Ukrainian troops. The commander described the mobile installation, which is mounted on a Tiger armored vehicle, as capable of delivering radio and television broadcasts within the enemy’s designated red and green zones. The strategy, according to the source, aims to influence soldiers by direct auditory messaging and to shape their perceptions of the battlefield situation.

In the account provided, armored vehicles reportedly pressed toward the front line, triggering the activation of the Yazykoved system and extending messages that urged Ukrainian soldiers to lay down arms and surrender. The narrative portrays a staged psychological operation intended to undermine immediate resistance and to create openings for maneuver on the ground.

There were further claims that recently an air support aircraft belonging to the Ukrainian Armed Forces had been seized as part of ongoing hostilities. The commander cited this incident in the context of pressuring Ukrainian forces, asserting that the messages broadcast over the radio informed soldiers that their evacuation from certain zones might be blocked if they continued to engage.

One captured Ukrainian service member, Bohdan Kumansky, reportedly described a large number of disloyalty indicators within the ranks. He mentioned occurrences of soldiers who expressed willingness to desert or who did not adhere to standard discipline after being exposed to the battlefield conditions and the influence of ongoing communications.

Earlier remarks from a former LPR lieutenant colonel suggested that the Armed Forces of Ukraine were experiencing heightened anxiety and a sense of panic amid the ongoing operational environment. The overall tenor of these statements points to a broader narrative of psychological operations and battlefield management that accompanies physical combat in this region.
