Actions speak louder than words. We see no signs that Russia is leaving Kherson without a fight. A part of the ru-group is preserved in the city, and additional reserves are charged to the region. ?? is liberating territories based on intelligence data, not staged TV statements.

Ukraine is wisely displaying caution!
But I see no benefit in Russia publicly announcing a withdrawal and not doing it as it causes panic amongst the troops and anger amongst the public and Ukraine isn't stupid enough to rush a liberation based on the word of Russia, I suspect they'll leave a chunk of soldiers behind to die whilst withdrawing their 'best' but it's inevitable, Kherson will be Ukraine's again.
