The situation in the Zaporizhzhia direction is escalating

Russian troops are increasing their activity in the Zaporizhzhia direction. As reported by Ukrainian military journalist Bohdan Myroshnykov, the enemy has withdrawn a significant portion of reserves from the Polohy district, moving them closer to Kamianske and Orikhiv. Furthermore, there is a regrouping of troops towards Huliaipole. It is quite likely that Russia is preparing for a new offensive.

The Economist recently published an article that sparked considerable resonance in Ukrainian society. The main message is the possibility of a Russian offensive on Zaporizhzhia. The material was based on the words of an anonymous high-ranking Ukrainian official and received mixed reviews among Ukrainian military experts.
