Russia says pushing offensive into Ukraine's industrial region
June 09, 2025
|Cape Argus
RUSSIA said yesterday it was pushing into Ukraine’ eastern industrial Dnipropetrovsk region for the first time in its three-year offensive - a significant territorial escalation amid stalled peace talks.
-
Moscow, which has the initiative on the battlefield, has repeatedly refused calls by Ukraine, Europe and US President Donald Trump for a full and unconditional ceasefire.
At talks in Istanbul last week it demanded Kyiv pull troops back from the frontline, agree to end all Western arms support and give up on its ambitions to join the Nato military alliance.
Dnipropetrovsk is not among the five Ukrainian regions over which Russia has asserted a formal territorial claim.
It is an important mining and industrial hub for Ukraine and deeper Russian advances into the region could have a serious knock-on effect for Kyiv’s struggling military and economy.
Dnipropetrovosk was estimated to have a population of around three million people before Russia launched its offensive.
