DeepState on fortifications in the Dnipropetrovsk region
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Korrespondent] Analysts confirm fortifications on the border of Donetsk and Dnepropetrovsk regions.

Despite many rumors about the lack of protection, after critical problems with the IFS in the Kharkiv region, the Dnipropetrovsk region approached this issue responsibly.


OSINT project DeepState assessed the state of engineering and fortification structures on the administrative border of the Dnipropetrovsk and Donetsk regions. The analysts reported the results of the assessment in Telegram on Sunday, June 15.

"There are many discussions and debates online about the preparation of defense in the Dnipropetrovsk region, which the enemy has come close to. A minority dares to say that the IFS are present, but the majority still continues to complain about the poor preparation to which everyone has become accustomed... In conversations with fighters, we saw and knew that the IFS on the administrative border are being prepared, quite well, but we did not know the scale. We chose the most reliable way - to go and see for ourselves. So are the IFS being built on the administrative border of the Dnipropetrovsk and Donetsk regions? Yes," the message noted.

Analysts have published coordinated photographs of fortifications on the second of the three lines of defense - both completed and those still under construction. Some of the structures are underground.

According to DeepState, Western partners are also involved in the process for consultations and the transfer of experience, and in the process they themselves adopt certain combat experience and consult on the construction of defense.

"After the critical problems with the IFS in the Kharkiv region, which we began to talk about and publish, society reacted violently to such irresponsibility. The problems of building defense began to be discussed more and more on the Internet, and quite rightly, questions and calls for preparing the IFS in the Dnipropetrovsk region, taking into account the enemy's approach to it, were often heard. And as practice shows, it worked," the project emphasized.

According to DeepState maps, as a result of advances in the Donetsk region, Russian troops have come close to the administrative border of the Dnipropetrovsk region and in the area of ​​the villages of Zelenyi Kut (near the administrative border with the Zaporizhia region) and Kotlyarovka (to the northeast) are located at a distance of about 1 km from it, and the "gray zone" in some places has come very close to the administrative border.

Let us recall that due to the difficult security situation in the Dnepropetrovsk region, the authorities introduced a second wave of forced evacuation from the Sinelnykovsky district.
