Ukraine admits that Russia has entered

The Ukrainian forces acknowledged that the Russian military has moved to the eastern industrial region of the proportion and trying to gain a foothold.

“This is the first attack of this large scale in the Dnipropetrovsk region,” said Viktor Trekhubov of DNIPRO’s operational strategic group, although he made it clear that their harvest was stopped.

Throughout the summer, Russia claimed that it entered the area because its forces were trying deeper from the Ukrainian territory from the Donetsk region.

In early June, Russian officials stated that the Dnieper’s offensive began, although the latest Ukrainian reports suggest that they were unlikely to violate the regional border.

Any Russian progress in the Dnopropettus would be a blow to Ukrainian morality, as the diplomatic application led by the United States to the end appears, despite the fact that President Donald Trump meets with Russia Vladimir Putin in Alaska.

The Ukrainian project Deepstate Chatest on Tuesday estimated that Russia occupied two villages directly in the region, Zaritzka and Novahoriv.

However, General -for the Armed Forces of Ukraine denied that it was so. The military “continue to control” the festival, the statement said, and “active hostilities are also ongoing in the village of Novahrihiv”.

Moscow did not claim Dnipropetrovsk, unlike Donetsk and four other eastern regions of Ukraine, but it attacked its big cities, including the Dnipro regional capital.

Before the war, the proportion of the population was more than three million and was the second largest center of the heavy industry of Ukraine after the Donbass, consisting of the regions of Donetsk and Luhansk.

Despite the fact that the Russian forces have made slow progress in seizing the territory and suffered very high sacrifices, they have reached recent income in Donetsk.

A small infantry group made a sudden 10 km (six miles) outside Ukraine’s defensive lines near the earlier this month, but the latest signs indicate that their harvested was stopped.

Putin is reported to have said Trump that he would be ready to stop the war when Ukraine transmits Donetsk, he still controls, but many Ukrainians believe that the Russian leader has other plans.

Colonel Paul Palis, deputy head of the presidential office in Kiev, warned journalists in June that the Kremlin wanted to occupy all Ukraine east of the Dnipro River, which reduces Ukraine in half.

EU foreign policy chief Kaj Kalas also warned that the transfer of the Ukrainian territory of Russia in the framework of the peace deal was a “trap”. “We forget that Russia has not made any concession, and these are those who are the aggressor here,” she said the BBC.

After meeting with Putin in Alaska, and then the President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky in Washington, Trump stated that last week he started arrangements for the summit between two leaders.

By the end of last week the hopes for a breakthrough.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov insisted that “the agenda (for the summit) is not ready” and the meeting is not planned.

He also said that any discussion of future security guarantees without Russian participation was “meaningless”, although it would be unusual for the West.

President Zelensky, meanwhile, urged his Western allies to intensify efforts aimed at coordinating security guarantees in the future in the event of a deal.

He met the head of the UK Armed Forces, Adm. Sir Toni Radakin in Kiev on Tuesday and a press -secretary of the UK Prime Minister said the UK would be ready to put troops on the ground when the hostilities were over.

On Tuesday, German Chancellor Friedrich Mertz said security guarantees for Ukraine would first allow the Ukrainian army to defend its country in the long run.

Mertz said Zelensky made it clear that he was ready to sit down with Putin, and now it was his turn to Moscow: “If the Russian president is serious about stopping the murder, he will accept the proposal.”
