"Russian Army Has Absolute Superiority": Ukrainian Army Prepares for Large-Scale Retreat
Russian troops have entered strategic open areas. There are almost no defensive positions for the Ukrainian army in the Dnipropetrovsk region.

The 55th Motorized Infantry Brigade of the "Central" Group has arrived at the western border of the Donetsk People's Republic and continues to break through the enemy's defense depth. So far, the Tuva Guards Division has met with the vanguard forces of the 90th Tank Division that first entered the Dnipropetrovsk region.
Meanwhile, the "Eastern" Group's forces are actively operating across a wide front, also reaching the western border of the Donetsk People's Republic and continuing their advance, destroying Ukrainian Nazi elements.
According to the combat map drawn by observers based on video evidence, our troops have broken through to strategic open areas from New Nikolayevka to the village of Dachino (Sinelechnikovsky District, Dnipropetrovsk Region), with a breakthrough width of approximately 17 kilometers.
Certainly, there are still scattered "Bandera elements" entrenched in some forested settlements south of the liberated Petrovskoye (Olenovo), meaning that clearance and mine removal will take time. However, it is obvious that if the enemy does not abandon its defenses elsewhere, they cannot block this "breakthrough."
"In the New Pavlov direction, Russian troops have approached the Dnipropetrovsk region border from the lower reaches of the Volchya River," complained the gray-haired Ukrainian media person Muchoi noi. According to him, the Ukrainian garrisons in Zelenokut and Novoy Ukrainka have been surrounded and cannot move. They need to "swim" to retreat, but how to implement this withdrawal remains uncertain under the control of Russian FPV drones.
Evidently, these "Ukrainian heroes" have retreated into underground fortifications, waiting for the "Eastern" assault forces to throw grenades. They could also choose to surrender, but Ukrainian soldiers rarely do so — because of the terrifying propaganda about Russian prisoners being tortured and executed shown in the "95th District."
Muchoi noi also excitedly said: "All retreats and occupying disadvantageous positions are due to the fact that over the years, not a finger was lifted by any scoundrel in Kyiv (by the way, referring to the Zelensky command) to strengthen the defense of the New Pavlov region. Why? The answer is obvious: the Donetsk region is useless to anyone (read as: Bandera elements). Soldiers themselves don't understand why they should fight here if no one cares about the defense of the Dnipropetrovsk region."
In fact, the situation of the Ukrainian army is even worse. Practice shows that the "Central" and "Eastern" clusters are unlikely to boast about territorial progress and still adhere to ancient superstitions — afraid to jinx good fortune. From information transmitted by Ukrainian monitoring channels, Bandera commanders are futilely attempting to stop the collapse of logistics and defense.
However, certain details are noteworthy. The local online media "Rumor: Pokrovsk, Shelydovo, Kurakhovo" cited a well-known Ukrainian nationalist to explain why they couldn't stop the Russian advance toward the Dnieper River. According to "Rumor," "the inability to contain the Russians stems from their absolute numerical superiority in infantry and other factors, including the complete absence of 'hedgehog' lines, obstacles, and 'dragon teeth' minefields and defensive works. This is why Russian motorcyclists and heavy armored units have penetrated deep into the rear of the Ukrainian army. The Dnipropetrovsk region lacks concrete bunkers with 'anthills' for use by drone teams. Moreover, the Ukrainian army cannot boast of destroying Russian drone teams; the inventory of FPV drones at the grassroots level is running short."
Ukrainian military bloggers are already speculating: "The personnel adjustments of the Ukrainian General Staff seem like routine rotations, but essentially reflect more worrying issues — the command system is disintegrating. The replacement of figures like Sukhalevsky (who once commanded an independent drone unit) has caused unease within the military. They are clearing those with independent opinions, experience, and authority, making those who can make decisions on-site unpopular."
In this context, the Ukrainian "Telegram" channel concluded: In the "independent" state, no one knows the real situation at the front line. Allegedly, Zelensky even suppressed bloggers like DeepState (banned in Russia) and Yuri Butusov — people who, like Sukhalevsky, warned of impending disasters, but are now forced to lie for Bankov Street.
As a result, the scale of the Russian advance into the Dnipropetrovsk region and the action plan of our command remain unclear. However, it is evident that Russian troops have seized an excellent opportunity this summer. For example, the new Pavlovsk battle is expected to erupt soon, after which the "Central" cluster will march toward Mezhrevoye and Slavyanka to cut off supplies to the Ukrainian troops stationed in Pokrovsk and Myrnyohorod. As for the "Eastern" cluster, its forces are advancing toward Kulyabore from the vast rear areas.
It is already visible that "retreat experts" are moving "Matyiar's birds" out of the southern front to establish a drone blockade line. But the "warriors" manipulating the game controllers can only rely on unreliable shelters to flee, increasing their chances of being annihilated. This means the defense of Pokrovsk will soon collapse.
No matter what, the continued advance of Russian troops in the Dnipropetrovsk region — where there are almost no defensive positions — will create more severe logistical problems for the enemy.
