The situation in the Zaporozhye region has sharply escalated recently. A major offensive of the Ukrainian military in the area aimed at smashing the Russian grouping in the Donbass and advancing towards the Sea of Azov is expected to begin in the coming weeks.
On March 19, Ukrainian forces launched the combat reconnaissance operation to the South of Orekhov. They attacked Russian positions near Novodanilovka with up to two battalions fully equipped by NATO.
The Ukrainian column was quickly detected by Russian drones. It was shelled by artillery and struck with ATGMs. The shooting battle broke out in the area. About 25 Ukrainian servicemen were killed, at least 3 tanks and 3 infantry fighting vehicles were destroyed.
On the same day, Ukrainian forces attacked the Russian positions near Charivny, but it did not come to a direct clash. The Ukrainian grouping was scattered by artillery fire.
Another Ukrainian attempted offensive took place to the east of Gulyaipole on March 15. It involved up to two infantry companies supported by two platoons of main battle tanks and infantry fighting vehicles. As a result of the operation, Ukraine lost up to 30 servicemen, and all the heavy equipment involved.
Despite the losses, the Ukrainian military continues combat reconnaissance operations in order to identify soft spots in the Russian defense. According to the tactics developed by NATO, they launch attacks with tactical groups of up to 10 armored vehicles. The same operations were carried out on the eve of the Ukrainian offensive in the Kharkiv and Kherson regions.
Preparing for a large-scale offensive, a large Ukrainian grouping is concentrating near the Zaporozhye front. Various sources estimate the main strike force of up to 50 thousand servicemen, and up to one thousand of military vehicles.
Meanwhile, columns of NATO heavy equipment are already approaching the Ukrainian front lines. Most of them are claimed to be earmarked for the offensive on the southern Donbass front. German Leopard tanks are also expected to be deployed in this direction, as they are well suited for fighting in the Ukrainian steppes.
The main offensive operation of the Ukrainian Army is expected to begin in the second half of April, when the weather will allow heavy equipment to move easily across the fields, new units of mobilized soldiers will be transferred to the front and they will be fully provided with NATO equipment and weapons.
The main strike is likely to hit the bridgehead near the towns of Pology and Tokmak. Control of them would pave the way to Berdyansk and Melitopol. In the case of success, the Ukrainian military would reach the Sea of Azov, cutting off the Russian grouping in the Donbass. The land road to Crimea would be cut off and Ukrainian forces could threaten the Crimean Bridge with NATO-made missiles.

Or they could fail, paving the way for Russia to take Zaporizhia
Or let them come in and close the door behind them, capturing all that NATO gear to have a look at
Good point but it will not do much good to look at a pile of blazing scrap metal LOL!
If there are large Ukrainian groupings and Nato supplied armour heading for the front why the fuck are they not being annihilated now? maybe they are.
very good question. where is General Armageddon when you need one, damn
It isn’t at full concentration. At the present the concentration of manpower and equipment is scattered over a large area. It is only just before the assault that it is brought together to form a more valuable grouping. Why waste rockets and shells for a few soldiers and a few equipment here and there, when you can inflict massive blows that are extremely demoralizing and excessive causing a major depreciation in the enemies combat effectiveness? The Russians did the same when the UAF did the last counter offensive, with Russian forces suffering minimum casualties while inflicting heavy losses on UAF.
In their dreams
Are they painting targets on them?
The Russian air Force will have plenty of targets along with the anti-armored vehicle missile launchers the Donetsk Republic militia, Lugansk/Luhansk Republic militia, Russian military and Wagner PMCs have. Oh and the Kadyrovsky also have them I’m sure.
Ukraine is like the prize fighter on the ropes puting all its efforts now in the “knock out” blow, Crimea is the prize the U.S is after…if Ukraine take it the U.S will use it as their reward in the Black sea for the strangulation of Russia. Hope Putin is ready to push Ukraine into extinction because if there is a rump Ukraine then the U.S will continue its efforts.
The last throw of the dice for the AFU
Yeah, Ukraine’s Unternehmen Frühlingserwachen and it’ll end the same way.
There will be some tomahawk from the Mediterranean sea. Time to start using the atomic krasnopol charges
Some from the Indian sea as well. They will cross the line, hoping Russia won’t retaliate against US Navy deployed in Allies waters. Russia won’t. Instead they will annihilate the advance before it gains momentum to reach the Azov sea using nuclear artillery as well as hipersónic missiles in airfields in Poland and Germany. The coin will be in the air for a few hours 😖🤬
I’d say if Russia doesn’t retaliate against that attack from Mediterranean or Indian ocean, that will be percived as Russian weekness, so they should. The are testing Russia for about so long, it is time to end that, and for Russia to retaliate against America, the most evil entity in the world.
Agreed, tactical nuclear strikes needed.
It is impossible to cut off the Russian grouping in Donbass because the entire Eastern border of Donbass is Russia.
Are the Russians standing and watching again as the Ukrainians are building up forces to attack in Zaporozhje?
And yet, China still doesn’t contribute to the cause.
Yes , they are , but secretly and quietly.
Wait to see if *when* their peace plan fall’s through, that’s when i reckon they’ll become more brazen about military support for Russia since any hope of a negotiated settlement has been dashed.
China plays the soft ball part of the China-Russia geopolitical offensive against USA. USA looking bad, called out as as a warmonger, when rejecting China peace proposals, which are cover for Russia’s ‘hard ball’ military campaign.
As the saying goes, Russia plays chess while the US plays strip poker.
NATO PREPARES UKRAINIAN ARMY FOR a suicide mission .
The US and all of EU give Ukraine money, weapons, ammunition, logistics, personnel.
So tell me how this is not the start of WW3 ?
There will be wars and rumors of wars, and fake christians.
Bro who the fuck is that pedo on ur pfp?
I identity as they/them
With he spring approaching and the famous Ukrainian mud drying out, this could be Ukraine’s Unternehmen Frühlingserwachen.
Ukraine is getting ready to have the DUDU or DUDA (Polish PM or Excreta) kicked out of them. Ukraine has constipation, Wagner and the Russian Armed Forces will resolve that issue real soon. Lol !!
The Russians proved they were capable of stalling the Ukrainian offensives in the south using the same quantity of men and equipment being described here, and the Russians only retreated as a result of their own command decisions. The Kherson offensive by Ukraine was launched and aborted over and over again for months and was not the victorious model offensive they imagine it to be. There is a real chance the Ukrainians won’t be able to progress fast enough in the south and will instead panic and divert the offensive group to the east instead because of the deteriorating situation there and the surging Russian troop numbers.
I hope this time russian do not run away from this coming nazi-Ukraine offensive. Russia can finish this war any time it wants. However, it does not want ¿ why ? I do not know.
Ukrainians need to demand that NATO get the hell out. For their own future. It has been captured by globalists who do not care who dies from their plans to dominate and plunder. A referendum to re-instate President Viktor Yanukovych would make a lot of sense. This Nazi crap is getting everyone killed.
