Ukraine Russia War: Kyiv Makes Gains on Dnipro River, Moscow Issues Grave Warning to US
Kyiv's Notable Gains on the Dnipro River in Ukraine-Russia War, Moscow's Concerns Over US Role
Ukraine Russia War: According to Russian reports, Ukrainian troops have advanced along the Dnipro River, crossing over to the other side and entering Russia’s occupied territory. A well-known Russian military blogger known as ‘Rybar’ asserted that Ukrainian forces successfully penetrated Russian defenses while arriving on the eastern side of the Dnipro River.
He asserted that on the afternoon of October 17, they briefly held the village of Poyma and took up positions on the northern periphery of Pishchanivka.
According to the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), the milblogger later claimed that Russian forces pushed Ukrainian forces back from these positions towards the Dnipro River.
According to ISW, he also asserted that there is an ongoing presence of a Ukrainian sabotage unit in Pishchanivka as of the afternoon of October 18.
Ukrainian armed forces employed a long-range weapon provided by the United States for the first time, targeting two Russian military airfields. This operation resulted in the successful destruction of nine helicopters and an ammunition depot.
Russia’s ambassador to the United States, Anatoly Antonov, characterized Washington’s choice to provide ATACMS as “unwise” and “a significant error” that would have no impact on the outcome of the conflict.
