DeepState analysts have observed a significant expansion of the grey zone along the settlements of Solodke, Novomykolaivka, Rivnopillia, Nove and Novouspenivske in Zaporizhzhia Oblast.

Quote: "The enemy has increased its presence in the area of these settlements where it is constantly being detected throughout the entire grey zone.

In particular, the enemy has fully occupied the settlement of Uspenivka, while information about the occupation of Solodke and Pryvilne is being verified. At present, the enemy is actively pressing on Nove and Novouspenivske and has already begun to absorb Rivnopillia."

Details: DeepState said the Russians' numerical advantage is taking its toll, and control over a significant area is now in question – a development that could threaten the city of Huliaipole.

The occupation of Rivnopillia, the analysts note, opens operational space from the north towards the city and complicates the defence of positions in Zelenyi Hai and Vysoke (Chervone).

Quote: "Huliaipole has long remained an impregnable city for the enemy, which once made repeated attempts to enter it, particularly from the direction of Marfopil. Now, however, a new route is opening up that could complicate the defence of this key settlement in the area."
