Ukrainian 🇺🇦 army is fortifying Tchernobyl, the Transnistria's border and all the regions bordering hostile countries 🇷🇺🇧🇾.

This happens while fortification work is still ongoing near the frontline. Overview of the defenses⬇️

🧵THREAD🧵1/20 ⬇️

This is Kherson oblast, the only place where we can say the fortification work is finished : a line stretching from the Boug to the Dnipro has been set around 15km from the river's banks.

Fortification work is ongoing on the coastlines of southern Ukraine, some new defenses a few kilometers away from the beaches.

Here is Zaporijia city, (you have to click to zoom it). These defenses are mostly old ones from 2022 and 2023, but you'll see there are 2 main lines just south of it.

The first one is being completed, it passes both north and south of Orikhiv. The secondth one passes along Konka river and is now finished.

Now, we will take a look at the defenses just north of Orikhiv.

These 4 images show how fast they built these defenses (april and may). Next, you have 2 more detailed images.


Now, you can see they are currently improving this line between Orikhiv and Hulialpole. At some point, trenches are being prepared 5km from the frontline.

On the south donetsk direction, you can see that since the secondth line is farther north, the first one is being improved. In green you have the last Russian advances near Urozhaine and Staromaiorske.

📸Zaporijia/South Donetsk

East of Pokrovsk, there are many lines in preparation, the engineers are digging new defenses between Avdiivka and Prokrovsk. New defenses sighted near Pokrovsk these last days.

To avoid any flanking maneuver, twe lones are present south of Kostiantynivka. The situation on the frontline is stabilized with no more Russian breakthrough.

Here is north Donetsk, nothing new apart from new defenses all along the Siverski Donets River, strange ?

There are already a lot of defenses since 2022 and 2023.

Nothing new for Lyman and Kupiansk.

Near the Russian border of Kharkiv oblast, a new defensive line is being dug north of Shevchenkove.

Nothing new near Vovchansk.

Here is the North-Eastern border with a zoom in for Sumy city and Tchernihiv oblast.

And... ...Tchernobyl, Kyiv oblast, Jytomyr, Rivne... This is new and this is huge, we just have to take a look at some images :

Here are some images of Tchernobyl direction. (last image from Rivne oblast).


And finally Transnistria : you have to know there is a ditch since a few years directly on the border (dug by Ukrainians).
It has now been reinforced and there are now new defenses.

These new defenses show how Ukraine is willing to prepare the whole country for defense against Russia, on the front, on the border, on the Belarussian border and on the Transnitrian border.
