Russian troops have allegedly crept into the western Donetsk region, claims the Russian Ministry of Defense. These foot soldiers continued their aggressive march, teaming up with a tank division, pushing their offensive beyond the border of the adjacent Dnipropetrovsk region, according to the ministry's statement.
On a Sunday Sunday jam-packed with action, the Kremlin declared success by Russian ground forces advancing toward Dnipropetrovsk. As per official Army announcements, an offensive orgy by a tank unit concluded with reaching the western boundary of the Donetsk People's Republic, with further incursions into the Dnipropetrovsk region on the agenda.
Moscow's desire to set up a buffer zone in Dnipropetrovsk is well-known. Donetsk, one of Russia's five annexed regions, is no stranger to this status. However, Dnipropetrovsk hasn't been annexed as yet.
Despite the buzz, no Russian tanks have been spotted there. They don't even loiter at the administrative border of the regions.
Ukrainian military spokesman dismisses Russian advance claims
Viktor Tregubov, the military spokesman for the Ukrainian group "Chortyzia," vehemently denies reports of Russian troops storming the Dnipropetrovsk region. He vented his thoughts on the Ukrainian TV channel "Suspilne" that no Russian units pay a visit at the administrative boundary between Donetsk and Dnipropetrovsk on June 11.
A spicy video showcasing Russian marauders at the border with the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast has surfaced in Russian media. Nevertheless, Tregubov insists the video was filmed in the Donetsk region, far from the border. He verified that camouflaged Russians have been lunging towards Dnipropetrovsk from Pokrovsk and Nowopavlovsk since April's last rather nasty breath.
The Ukrainian news agency "Ukrainian National News" (UNN) cites a military representative for the region, Vladislav Voloshin, that Ukrainian warriors successfully thwart the attackers continually repelling them from Dnipropetrovsk.
Voloshin tells UNN that Russian soldiers are still a considerable hike from the administrative border. "The Russians are still a few kilometers away, up to ten kilometers, because our defenders are obstructing their path," Voloshin says.
The enemy is packing enough firepower to maintain an oppressive level of fighting for several days or even weeks. However, Voloshin points out a shift in strategy. The enemy is now waging their attack operations using smaller infantry groups, allowing them to sustain a high intensity of combat for extended periods.
Voloshin wound up by saying, "That means they can constantly storm in these directions." The army spokesman, however, does not see a Russian upper hand. The Ukrainian defenders learned a trick or two about resisting the enemy march.
The intensifying conflict, as reported by Ukrainian military spokesman Viktor Tregubov, is centered around the Dnipropetrovsk region, which has been a subject of attention in war-and-conflicts and politics due to Moscow's desire to establish a buffer zone there. Despite claims by the Russian Ministry of Defense, Tregubov denies the presence of Russian troops in the region, stating that any footage showing Russian forces at the border is likely filmed in the Donetsk region, not Dnipropetrovsk. General news outlets suggest that Ukrainian forces are successfully repelling the attackers, with the enemy adopting smaller infantry groups for a sustained high intensity of combat.
