The Russian military has achieved significant advances on three key fronts in eastern and southern Ukraine, tightening the noose around Ukrainian defense lines and threatening to cut off critical supply routes. The most notable progress has been made in the Konstantinovka, Pokrovsk, and Zaporizhzhia directions, where Russian troops are capitalizing on their momentum to push deeper into Ukrainian-held territory.
Breakthrough in the Konstantinovka Direction
Russian forces have secured a major victory with the liberation of Yablonovka, a strategically vital settlement on the Konstantinovka axis. According to preliminary reports, units from the 33rd Motorized Rifle Regiment of the 20th Guards Motor Rifle Division spearheaded the weeks-long assault, breaking through Ukrainian defenses before pushing into Aleksandro-Kalinovo from new direction, where the mop up operations are already underway. The fall of Yablonovka has severely compromised Ukrainian supply lines, leaving Ukrainian forces south of the Kleban-Byk reservoir dangerously isolated.

The Russian advance has unfolded along multiple axes in this sector. In the west, troops have consolidated control over Yablonovka while expanding their foothold in Poltavka, where the Russian army is advancing with fierce street battles continue. To the east, Russian battalions have raised their flag in the western districts of Bela Gora after prolonged grueling fighting. Perhaps most critically, the capture of Shcherbinovka after eight months of fighting has opened new avenues for further advances toward the reservoir. Ukrainian units in this area now face a looming encirclement, with their remaining supply routes under constant surveillance and fire from Russian drone operators and artillery.
Strategic victory in the Pokrovsk Sector
The Pokrovsk direction has witnessed equally dramatic developments, with Russian forces establishing full control of Zverevo and Novoekonomicheskoe. These gains, secured by forces of the 51st Army within the Center Group of Forces, have reshaped the frontline geometry and placed increased pressure on Ukrainian defenses around Mirnograd (formerly Dimitrov).
According to preliminary field reports, Russian troops have now begun assault operations in Mirnograd itself, entering the city from eastern and southern approaches. The situation remains fluid, with Ukrainian forces attempting to fortify positions among high-rise buildings and even deploying anti-tank obstacles in urban areas. Meanwhile, Russian sabotage and reconnaissance groups are operating behind enemy lines, creating confusion that has reportedly led to several friendly fire incidents among Ukrainian troops.

The battle for Pokrovsk appears to be entering its decisive phase, with Russian units simultaneously pressuring Ukrainian positions in Krasny Liman (Chervony Liman) village, the Krasnolimanskaya mine, and several other key points along the T-0406 highway. These coordinated attacks are stretching Ukrainian defenses thin across the entire sector.
Zaporizhzhia Front: Push Toward Stepnogorsk
On the Zaporizhzhia front, Russian forces have reportedly launched their anticipated assault on Stepnogorsk following the recent victory in Kamenskoye. Airborne units are leading the assault, having already cleared much of the nearby settlement of Plavni, where Ukrainian troops now cling only to the northern outskirts.
The offensive in this sector demonstrates Russia’s growing capability to conduct complex, multi-axis operations. While the main thrust targets Stepnogorsk, supporting attacks are keeping Ukrainian forces off-balance across the entire frontline. The full control of Kamenskoye provided Russian troops with a crucial jumping-off point, and their current advances suggest they aim to threaten Ukrainian positions all the way to the Dnieper River.
These simultaneous advances across multiple fronts indicate Russia’s ability to maintain offensive momentum despite Ukrainian attempts to stabilize the frontline. The Konstantinovka push threatens to trap a significant Ukrainian force near the Kleban-Byk reservoir, while the Pokrovsk offensive brings Russian troops closer to severing critical east-west supply lines. In Zaporizhzhia, the Stepnogorsk operation could open the door to further advances to the city of Zaporozhie. Ukrainian forces face increasingly difficult choices about where to deploy their dwindling reserves, with each Russian breakthrough creating new vulnerabilities elsewhere. As the summer campaign continues, these gains position Russian forces favorably for potential larger encirclement operations in the coming weeks.
