Russia is planning an offensive in the south of the Zaporizhzhia region

This was stated by the spokesman of the Defense Forces of the South, Vladyslav Voloshyn.

According to Voloshyn, the attacks could create a new pressure point for the Ukrainian military, which is already lagging behind in the east. Although it is currently unclear whether this will be one large-scale offensive by the Russians or separate assaults.

The assaults could begin in the near future, we are not even talking about weeks, we expect it to happen any day now.
