18 months have passed since the start of the war in Ukraine. During this period, things at the front gradually reached a state of equilibrium. In Donbas, the skirmish line settled in Donetsk Oblast after virtually all of Luhansk Oblast was captured by the Russian army, but a successful Ukrainian counter-offensive in Kharkiv Oblast has led to Ukrainian pressure in Luhansk Oblast as well, where the Russians have ceded some territory and are desperately defending key points along the important line Svatovo – Kremena. In the Kherson region, the Ukrainians have already liberated the city of Kherson, with Russian forces retreating east of the Dnieper, and now the important question is what will happen with the Ukrainian counter-offensive in Zaporozhye, and will the Ukrainian army reach Crimea, as well as break through Bakhmut to Luhansk area. The issue with the Zaporizhia NPP also remains open.
Undoubtedly, the Ukrainian counter-offensive is currently the hottest in the western part of the Zaporozhye region – the direction from Orekhov to Tokmak and Melitopol. There, the situation is extremely dynamic, and the fighting is very heavy, while in the other direction, on the border between Donetsk and Zaporozhye regions (Velika Novoselka – Berdyansk), there is a lull. There, according to the Telegram channel of the “Vostok” detachment, part of the militias of the so-called The DPR (Donetsk People’s Republic) Russians use every day and hour without much active fighting to try to rebuild defensive positions destroyed by Ukrainian artillery and breached minefields.
