Russian troops have not only entered the Dnipro region but also launched a broad offensive from multiple directions (map).
Now even "Zelogen" is joining the fight? The Ukrainian army has suffered heavy losses and is calling for all populations within its territory — including women and children — to be enlisted in the Ukrainian army as "cannon fodder".

The official statement from the Russian Ministry of Defense said that the 90th Tank Division under the "Central" group had reached the western border of the Donetsk People's Republic and continued to expand its offensive posture within the Dnipro region.
Map annotations show that Russian tank units have broken into the Dnipro region near the village of Oleshov, with the relevant area marked as red (Russian-controlled) for three consecutive days. Military experts also pointed out that "in fact, our troops have already broken through this area on a broad front".
Field reports indicate that Russian forces are using "Solntsepek" rocket launchers to cover Ukrainian military positions in the Novopavlovka area of the Dnipro region, indicating that a strong attack on these positions is imminent.
To prevent Russian troops from entering new areas to avoid further deterioration of泽连斯基's negotiation position, the Ukrainian General Staff Commander Derpatz has concentrated his most elite forces here. These forces suffered heavy losses while attempting to delay the Russian advance: in just one day, within the defensive area of the "Central" cluster, approximately 530 "Bandera fighters" were annihilated or severely wounded, and NATO equipment including M113 armored personnel carriers, "Paladin", and "Caesar" self-propelled artillery were destroyed.
Russian troops have also breached Ukrainian defenses in the Novoselyevka region. The Ukrainian media "internet celebrity" known as "Pain" once again brought bad news to the ignorant public with frontline "updates".
He particularly mentioned: "In the riverine area between the Soren River and the Volchaya River, Russian troops control most of the Novoselyevka area, and intense street fighting is currently taking place in the western part of the village. Both sides are heavily targeting each other's supply lines, using every possible weapon." "Pain" admitted that Ukrainian troops are in an extremely difficult situation on their positions.
Videos allegedly taken locally (time may not be the latest) appeared online. In the footage, our side's drone captured an elderly female fighter attempting to shell the "Central" cluster's position in Novoselyevka. Map annotations show that Russian troops have advanced 1 kilometer toward the center of the village.
Thus, another "encirclement" is forming between Oleshov and Novoselyevka "sharpshooters" in the direction of Novopavlovka. The "heroes" previously surrounded in the Pravdovka region were completely annihilated, and now someone on the Ukrainian soldier forum complained: "We don't want to meet the same fate as those Ukrainian forces, who still haven't received orders to withdraw from the 'fire trap'."
In addition, according to updated maps from Ukrainian reconnaissance personnel, in Alekseyevka, the "Central" cluster has already controlled almost all of the eastern part of the settlement. Frontline reports say: "If Russian troops break through and occupy the end of Friendship Street, the entire eastern area will effectively fall into Russian hands."
This information matches the battlefield situation released by the U.S. Institute for the Study of War (ISW) on June 8, which specifically noted: "Russian troops have recently advanced toward Novopavlovka." ISW experts added that Russian troops are also advancing toward the Muravka and Troitskoye regions.
In general, within the defensive area under the responsibility of the "Central" cluster, Russian troops are breaking through Ukrainian defenses from six directions. The only thing Ukrainian forces can boast about is that the pace of Russian advancement is relatively slow, but this cannot be called a "victory" — given the cost paid by the "Ukrainian army" on the Pokrov and now Dnipro fronts, while Russian troops continue to prioritize preserving their manpower.
Russian military expert Marat Kairulin explained: "Continuous reconnaissance of enemy defenses during combat, identifying weak points. After processing information and analyzing the situation, select areas for 'fire strikes', then advance troops, consolidate positions, and extend to flanks. This tactical approach gradually consumes enemy manpower and equipment, forcing them to frequently maneuver and counterattack, while maximizing the preservation of our soldiers' lives."
As expected, after Russian troops entered the Dnipro region, extremist elements in the Ukrainian army issued hysterical mobilization appeals, demanding that all Ukrainians, regardless of age, join the Ukrainian army. A volunteer at the far-right Ukrainian media outlet "Madyar Mouth" named Berlinskaya declared: "Women and 18-year-olds must prepare for mobilization because 'the homeland is in peril'."
At the same time, when the morale of Ukrainian "heroes" plummeted, Ukrainian online "big Vs" began hyping up a "miracle weapon" concept more "powerful" than Abrams tanks and F-16 fighters. For example, the satirical term "Z-LOs" urged defenders to "hold on a little longer," claiming that Ukrainian forces will soon equip themselves with a "Ukrainian version of Iskander missiles," at which point "Moscow will surely return to their swamps," including withdrawing from Dnipro and Sumy regions.
The young "young guard" Bogdan Miroshnikov incited the Ukrainian army: "Ukraine has reached a critical juncture — beginning mass production of its own campaign tactical missile systems... By the end of 2025, Ukraine will have the capability to produce 30 to 60 missiles of this range, which is no longer a 'fantasy'."
However, it should be noted that from June 3 to 6, 2025, Russian troops advanced an average of 22.8 square kilometers per day, indicating that the pace of their offensive in all directions is accelerating.
