New front in Ukraine War? Russia broke the new area of Dnipropetrovsk; Peace talks came to a standstill
Russia on Sunday claimed that it was the first for the first time in the eastern Dnipropetrovsk region of Ukraine after the commencement of a full -scale invasion, indicating a possible serious increase in conflict between peace talks and increasing losses on both sides.The Moscow Ministry of Defense stated that the tank forces had violated the western boundary of the Donnetsk People’s Republic and “an important industrial and mining hub that was previously untouched by Russian ground infiltration,” an aggressive development in the dnipropetrovsk area. ,If confirmed, the step will represent both a strategic and symbolic shock for Ukrainian forces, already diluted on the frontline of 1,000 kilometers.Victors Trehaubov, a spokesman of Ukraine’s Khortatsia Forces, told CNN that “Russia is continuously spreading false information that he has entered the dnipropetrovsk area from Pokarovsk and Novopavalivak directions, but (neither in place) this information is true.”Ukraine’s top political and military leadership has not yet officially responded, although the southern army command acknowledged the threat, saying, “Russia does not leave its intentions to enter the Dnipropetrovsk region, but our fighters are bravely and professionally holding their sections of the frontline.”Medvedev warnsThe former President of Russia, Dimitri Medvedev, who is now Deputy Chief of the National Security Council, issued a Stark message amid the report reported, “Those who do not want to recognize the realities of war in the talks will achieve new realities on the ground.”The images released by the Russian Ministry of Defense showed the soldiers raising the national flag in a village Zori near the internal boundary of Donnetsk and DNIPTROVSK. Ukrainian authorities have not confirmed the loss of any region.Speaking to the Ukrainian Lieutenant Colonel Olecasandar, Mezova, about 12 km from the border, the AFP told that the advance was “very slow” and the fight course was unlikely to change dramatically. He said, “They can say that all the people of Ukraine belong to him. This is one thing.” “But I don’t think it will fundamentally change the situation. Our resistance will remain unchanged.”Dnipropetrovsk’s strategic importanceFor about three million people before the war, the dnipropetrovsk region, DNipro, includes a major industrial city that is repeatedly targeted by the Russian missile strikes. A deep Russian push in the region can severely stress Ukraine’s military resources and give another blow to its war-hit economy.Ukrainian officials say the area, mostly flats with low defensive positions, may allow Russian forces to move faster if the Kiev is unable to catch the line.Last year, Moscow used DNipro as a test ground for its “experimental” Oreshnik missile, claiming that it killed an aeronautics feature.Stopping peace talks and prisoners swapA few days after peace talks in Istanbul, informed advance was not successful. Russia has refused to entertain the calls for an unconditional ceasefire from Ukraine, the European Union and US President Donald Trump, while as a precondition for peace, demanding formal recognition of its control over five Ukrainian regions including Donnetsk and Crimea. Kiev has strongly rejected these conditions.However, a prisoner exchange, the only concrete agreement with talks, may begin next week, according to Ukrainian intelligence chief Curilo Budanov. He said that logistics were informed in Moscow and were on track on preparation despite “the enemy’s dirty information game”.Meanwhile, Russia accused Ukraine of refusing to retrieve the bodies of dead soldiers. Kremlin claimed that more than 1,200 corpses were taken to the border in refrigerated trains, which was waiting for the handover.
