Will there be battles near the Dnipro in 2026: the brigade commander explained how to stop the advance of the Russian Armed Forces (map)

"No one will fight near the Dnipro. After all, our main efforts are focused on restoring the borders of the Dnipropetrovsk region - and this is realistic," says Brigadier General. According to the military, the situation at the front remains dynamic: in some areas, the Defense Forces are achieving success, in others they are encountering difficulties.

At the same time, according to him, the Russian army is losing pace and cannot quickly replenish resources, and Ukrainian forces continue to destroy the enemy's logistics routes and warehouses, in particular deep in the rear, in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions and on the territory of Russia.

Commenting on the data of the analytical project DeepState, which indicated that the Russians allegedly advanced 20 kilometers deep into the Dnipropetrovsk region, the commander specified that the real advance did not exceed 10 kilometers. "10 kilometers. What is shown as a "gray zone" may be the territory where one serviceman ran and was destroyed. Well, he raised that flag and what? The territory where the enemy has a stable foothold is considered captured," Shaptala clarified.

Kombrig emphasized that this depth is not critical, and Ukrainian troops continue counteroffensive actions, gradually regaining lost positions. "If you look at the terrain and the actions we are planning, everything to completely dislodge the enemy from the Dnipropetrovsk region should work," the officer added.

According to the official information of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from November 4, units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation carried out 19 attacks in the direction of Oleksandrivsk. Fighting continued in the area of ​​the settlements of Oleksiivka, Verbove, Novovasylivske, Pavlivka, Uspenivka, etc. To the south, in the area of ​​Gulyai Pol, Ukrainian defenders stopped eight attempts by the enemy who tried to advance near Myslivskyi.

According to the cartographic data of the DeepState resource, no active hostilities were recorded in the Oleksandrivsk direction over the past day. At the same time, the enemy does not stop trying to advance towards Yehorivka, Pershotravnevo, as well as in the area of ​​Verbovo and Uspenivka.
