Update from Ukraine | Awesome! Ukraine Army Ambushed Russian Bridgehead
Hello my friends, you see we have some of the positive news coming straight from the frontlines, again in Dnipropetrovsk direction Ukraine gains more ground, and previously Ukraine counterattack in Ivanovka, liberating this village, while Ukraine expanded its access behind the very important river it was the natural obstacle so i was not really sure whether ukraine is capable to penetrate this one but the expansion of the gray zone really shows the ukrainian army success in Dnipropetrovsk and partially in Donetsk region as well.
So Pidum, Nazirka and Grushkivske i think three of the villages are with ukrainian army presence and they are now in a gray zone while still the biggest village in this region is Kamar.Russia doesn't use it as the supply hub but they send some of the infantry groups there, they accumulate the forces, or they try to bypass Ukrainian positions with their infiltration attacks.Well, here they're not that active compared to Cairns, Stuntinovka and Hulaipolya, but still the general idea for Putin in this war is to occupy territories.And you see how it is happening, not always in the Russians' favor.There are some of the places where Russia is successful, but not over here.Ukraine in Dnipropetrovsk direction, also in Zaporizhia, took an advantage over Russia.
It's visible I guess even for the Russian military bloggers because they also share interesting maps.We're going to look at them also in today's video.And let me show you on this wider perspective where is it happening.So Kamar village is here.This is the Ukrainian territory again and Some of the Russian drones are flying, confirming the presence of the Ukrainian armed forces in Grushkivske.And yes, unfortunately, every sort of the attack operation brings losses for the attacking side.
This time it is Ukraine.So Ukraine goes in attack, it means it has more losses in those points.Because Russians, they also have those FPV drones, they have surveillance drones.Those drones are less advanced compared to Ukrainian ones, but still they use those on the frontline.So every move is very risky from either side.And the place was geolocated, confirmed.
Ivanovka was definitely a successful operation of Ukrainian army.Basically Russians were forced to retreat behind the river because they had the problems with supplies and Ukraine is pushing them further and further.I think soon we're going to see the fight for Kamar village.But for Kemar it's going to be difficult because it's behind the Mukriyali river and this river is kind of wide.But there are some other shallow places where Ukraine might try to cross it.Well, we'll see.
Also, it depends on the weather.If it is really hot, the river is usually not that strong or not that deep.

Plus one more area where Ukraine is successful is this part of Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporizhia and partially Donetsk Oblast.Russians are telling about the new Ukrainian counterattack in this area.Let's check out their military maps.Yeah, the Russian maps are a little bit messy, but according to them, Ukraine created some sort of stronghold in Ternovo village.So here is the zoomed -in image over here.And Ukraine has expanded the territorial gains towards Novohryhorivka, which is in Donetsk Oblast.
This is the gray zone, and they also show how Russia tries to counterattack, but the situation for them is like that.Also, Ukraine has the attack vector towards Privolia and Slatka.And I see that Russia put this attack vector towards Pokrovskaya, which is like colored in red, but no.Russians are actually far away from Pokrovskaya.
There was one attack.Yes, it happened I think a couple of months ago or maybe the last month.A small Russian infiltration group went to Aleksandrovka, which is close to Pokrovskaya, but there were just two of the Russianswho were imprisoned by Ukraine.Mainly here Ukraine has an advantage over Russia and it is visible also for the Russian military bloggers which is outstanding.But at the same time I'm sure that the Russian high military command they do not read those bloggers, they do not read those maps.
For them they have their own maps and they show It's everything in red.So in Zaporizhia I told you about this part where Ukraine is successful but in Hulaipola Russia tries to gain some of the ground with a small infiltration attacks.They try to go to Hulaipilske and Cherivne.This is the expansion of the gray zone that happened I guess the last week.Well it's getting hard for Russia to advance here because they also have to protect their northern flank where Ukraine has an advantage and I'm sure that Ukraine Gradually, steadily, but will move towards Hulaipola, I think both from the western side and from the north, because Russia is simply losing supplies and logistics is the main factor in every sort of the war.Yeah, I am telling you about it all the time on this channel, but it is very important and I am very happy that Ukraine works in that direction.
Right, what about Kamenskoe?There Ukraine de -occupied Stepnohirsk, there is the Ukrainian army presence.Russia also tries to hit Ukrainian positions with the drones.But there is no forward movement of Ukrainian army towards Plavny.I think Ukraine just holds and waits for the Russian logistics collapse and after that it might perform the attack operations but again Ukraine has the limited window to do so until Russia develops some sort of the anti -drone protection for their convoys.Of course if Russians were protecting their vehicles Ukraine wouldn't be so successful but there is simply no physical way for Russians to do it they are in lack of the proper jammers proper air defense systems so they will suffer at least for the next half a year and we have the report about it from Ukrainian military commanders and Zelensky himself so six months window
at least it is out there for Ukrainian army and Russian tracks will burn even more.However, Russia already managed to get some of the resources to specific directions, like for example, in Donetsk Oblast, where the main hotspot is, of course, Konstantinovka direction, which is mostly already in the gray zone.This is the recent Russian movement.Let's check out the flags.so the situation is like that completely ruined buildings and couple of the Russian soldiers are waving communist flag maybe or what is this maybe some of the regiment flag they're all red and a Russian flag so immediately after waving they're disappearing from the scene and going hiding in the local buildings so we're not saying that Russia occupied this area because Ukrainian drones are operating.So it reminds me a little Kupinsk.
I will try to find the military map from the last year.Yeah sorry guys it was too much scrolling on the Russian channel so I decided to show you just deep state military map.So all of those flag operations Russia proclaimed as the territorial gains but later on something happened and Ukraine started the counterattack.It was very successful and the main factor is once again supply lines were cut and here we have the picture of today.Russia advanced here a little bit across the fields but they completely lost Kupensk.Is it possible in Konstantinovka?
I'm not sure.Because you see Russia has significantly better bridgehead and the war obstacles are not that decisive compared to Kupensk.Plus if Kupensk was the secondary direction still Donbass is the main target for Russia and they send everything they have to Konstantinovka at least right now.And for this reason in the short and middle range perspective they will occupy Konstantinovka, I'm sure about it.But in the long term, if Ukraine is that successful with strikes on Russian logistics, Russians will start to lose territories even in Donbass.You know, guys, sometimes I heard the question, Dennis, do you believe that the Ukraine
capable to liberate all of the territories till the borders of 1991?Well, I would change that question a little bit.I would say whether Ukraine is capable to cause some of the destruction of the Russian regime.And yes, Ukraine is doing it even right now.by hurting Russia really badly at the frontlines, yes, still Russia gains some of the territories, but compared to what it was the last year, no, Russia just bogged down and they lose more territories sometimes compared to what they gain.So at this stage we are not saying about any sort of the military achievements of the Russian army.
Plus Ukraine hits Russian infrastructure that demolishes the Russian economy little by little, but all together with those tiny little strikes it's gonna hurt Russia a lot and the war in Ukraine is the main factor one of the factors for the Russian regime to finally collapse and after that Ukraine will manage to return back all of the territories whether it's gonna be a diplomatic way or a military way in that case it doesn't really matter that much the main thing is for Russia not to be capable to defend those occupied regions and without political will without political hierarchy and management This will is absent.It's kind of a bad comparison, but I think it fits here exactly the future perspective for Russia to lose the territories.So it would be like the occupation of Crimea back in 2014, but instead it's going to be the liberation operation.So Russia occupied peninsula using their own forces.By the time there was simply no leadership in Ukraine, president escaped because of the revolution.And Russia used that time window when Ukraine was really disorganized and the resistance wasn't that possible.
Yeah, still some of the locals resisted, some of the army men, but not too much.And there were casualties.Two of the Ukrainian soldiers lost their lives.And Crimean Tatars, thank you so much.You resisted, I think,the most.

Get started freeYou were really rioting, you resisted the most but after all under repressions they are now calm and they themselves alone cannot withstand this aggressive machine of repressions and their minority after all in Crimea so yeah I do not blame for them not to go in the meetings because they will be canceled even more.But potential future resistance perspective in Crimea is out there.Like there will be lots of the volunteers who would fight in the future liberation operation of Crimea by the time the Russian elite is absent or it is clashing between each other.And I'm sure that it's going to be like that.And it may also lead to not just to liberation of the Ukrainian territories, but also to the civil war in Russia, like, for example, North Caucasus, it may spark once again.All right, let's go back to the front lines.
There is one more direction where Russia is propelling a little bit.We're speaking about Raya Aleksandrovka, which is now fully in a gray zone.There is the confirmation of the presence of the Russian infantry groups.And I would say from all of the defense lines, this is the least protected from what I understood.Well, Liman, it was just a flag operation.
But here in Raya Aleksandrovka, it's the different stuff.And Russians, little by little, they're occupying more ground here in Slovyansk direction.Which is in general not a good thing, but Ukraine has robust defense lines near Sloviansk, so Russians may take more territories till this river, but behind it, at least this year, they will not be capable to cross.Alright, more about the Zaporizhia direction.We have the information coming from Vasilivka that Ukraine hit the local bridge there.So Ukraine cancels Russian supplies towards Kamenskoye and Ukraine is getting ready probably for one more strike or jump to deoccupy more territories.
So this is the bridge in Vasilivka.It was kaboomed by the aviation gliding bomb strike.Well, this bridge was hit before by the drones, but with this aviation strike, of course,
it is no go so russians wouldn't be capable to send reinforcements and supplies absolutely outstanding And we already have the confirmation from Mayakov, so this is the strike on the bridge.
The bridge was cut by Ukraine.And the next bridge, well, Russians will have to use secondary roads.It was one of the main roads E105 towards Kamenskoye.And yeah, Russians will struggle without this one.And the secondary roads, well, they're tiny little and Ukraine may also concentrate the drone strikes.on those secondary ones.
And I would say that there are also perspectives for Ukraine to liberate nuclear power station because this this region is suffering without supply so Ukraine has to wait for some time and maybe it might start the landing operation towards the station without the actual fights on the territory but Ukraine may cut the Russian group in Energodar and force them to surrender.or just allow them to leave positions as some sort of the goodwill gesture that Russians already done lots of the times before.And why am I so optimistic?Because look at the strikes on bridges, on Russian tracks, definitely they have problems.There is a big chance that Russia may start to lose ground absolutely massively.And this is Ukrainian drone Luftwaffe group, they show the compilation of how they could put Russian vehicles, Russian storages, Russian supplies, and all of the roads are under their surveillance and later on under the strikes boom kaboom Russia definitely has issues with fuel you see the secondary road is here and that's the very special thing about this war in Donbass because the terrain there is very flat that allows drone operators to spot objects very far away for both sides yes for Ukraine and Russians but Ukraine has better drone technology so yeah that's the new compilation from one of the Ukrainian drone units
Ok, one more evacuation operation of the Ukrainian ground drones and Ukrainian drone operators.They've took two of the local people from the grey zone, they were under the constant strikes, they were hiding in the basements, their house was destroyed, there was an old man, really old.And not even elderly he cannot walk, but he was delivered at the proper place.This evacuation operation was done brilliantly, but again, locals should think ahead and evacuate themselves before they appear in the gray zone.And Ukraine announces evacuations regularly if Russia moves somewhere.But you know, for locals, sometimes they prefer to stay, stay, stay until their houses are being totally destroyed.
This Russian convoy was completely busted.I cannot show you everything what happened there, but this is crazy.It's the first time I see those kind of losses at once.I guess since 2023.The main thing that those are happening behind the front lines, further away Russians are not ready for those strikes and they still group their forces and vehicles in the convoys, so they become an easy prey for Ukrainian drones.Alright guys, I know that there are many more news, but I don't want to make this video ridiculously long, so I gonna film one more video today, so stand by for the next update in a few hours, my friends.
