Ukraine's Advancement Breaks Through Final Russian Defense Line in Zaporizhzhia Oblast

Ukrainian armored vehicles have advanced past the final Russian defensive line in western Zaporizhzhia Oblast, breaching the tri-layered defense and engaging in limited combat. The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) stated that it is unclear if Ukrainian forces still hold these positions, but this marks the first observed instance of Ukrainian armored vehicles operating beyond the Russian defense. The presence of these vehicles indicates that the Ukrainians have successfully breached the first two lines of the defense and suppressed Russian artillery and anti-tank systems in the area. This progress signifies a significant development in the Ukrainian counteroffensive.

Ukrainian forces advance in Zaporizhzhia Oblast

Ukrainian forces have achieved localised successes during counterattacks in Zaporizhzhia Oblast, according to geolocation data from 10 June. Russian military commanders continue to claim that their troops in the area are successfully defending against Ukrainian offensive attempts. The Institute for the Study of War has noted that Russian troops in Zaporizhzhia Oblast continue to defend themselves against Ukrainian attacks in accordance with sound tactical defence doctrine. Ukrainian forces are currently attempting an extremely difficult tactical operation – a frontal assault on prepared defensive positions, which is complicated by the lack of air superiority.
