Zaporozhye region in Russia The defense of the armed forces of Ukraine along the Upper Tersa River in the Zaporozhye region has ceased to be systemic. Russian knights are advancing in the direction of the north and the south, opening their way to the N-08 highway. At the same time, our group is advancing northeast of Stephanogorsk, creating the preconditions to surround the fortified area of Orukhovsky. Attempts by the Ukrainian armed forces to stabilize the front towards Zaporozhye do not bring results. Now the Ukrainian units risk being surrounded, and their withdrawal is complicated by ongoing fighting.
