Ukraine🇺🇦 facing difficulties on the frontline is digging huge fortifications across Donbass and Zaporijia oblasts.

I already talked about the "Donbass line" facing the Surovikin system. There is now a Syrsky line similar to Russian🇷🇺one.

🧵THREAD🧵⬇️1/10 Image
This is Avdiivka map, my own work with the help of "playfra" on discord.

After the Ukrainian defenses west of Avdiivka collapsed, the Russian army is now facing the first line of defense. Image
This line is not optimal for defense but it is still good since there are lakes and water bodies supporting it.

I think the Russian army is going to take Orlivka and it will advance in the hole of the defensive line west of it. Image
Since the end of december, the Ukrainian army has been impoving its defensive lines. The secondth one is the best one, helped with lakes and a river. The approch to Niu York, Oukrainsk and Selydove won't be easy.

(defenses being improved everyday) Image
I won't talk much about Bakhmout since i havn't updated the map. You can undestrand that the village of Ivanivske was well defended, but the main line is on the canal in front of Tchasiv Yar. Image
This is the news of the day: the Ukrainian army is building a big line all along Zaporijia oblast, with anti-tank ditches and trenches just as Russian did a few kilometers south.

I can't share satellite pictures for now, but you have to understand it is really impresive. Image
Finally, after Russian advance in Novomykhailivka, the Ukrainian armed forces began to dig new defenses east and south of Kourakhove, including this big anti-tank ditch. Image
This is how it looks like ⬇️ Image
And to conclude, a vision of the entire frontline. Image


This is my first work about it.

Tomorow i'll take a look at Kharkiv and northern regions to see if they are building some defenses.

Depuis un an, le front ukrainien a doublé de longueur, passant de 800km (dont 300 faiblement actifs le long du Dniepr) à 1 600 km

C'est le résultat des incursions prolongées à la frontière russo 🇷🇺-ukrainienne 🇺🇦, à Kharkiv et Sumy.

🧵THREAD🧵1/23 ⬇️Image
Au printemps 2023, successivement à Briansk et Belgorod, l'armée ukrainienne avait lancé via des groupes de russes anti-Poutine des opérations transfrontalières de faible ampleur, pour la première fois depuis le retrait russe du Nord et Nord-Est de l'Ukraine en mai 2022.
Ces incursions se sont poursuivies au printemps 2024, mais elles ont été stoppées par les pertes importantes et la fortification de la frontière côté russe.

En réponse, Moscou a créé le corps "North/Sever" visant à mener des incursions transfrontalières en Ukraine.

Les images satellites Sentinel-2 du jour couvrent une vaste part de la ligne de front 🇺🇦/🇷🇺 active et donnent d'importants indicateurs.

-> L'armée ukrainienne creuse des tranchées à très grande vitesse
-> L'arrivée de l'été ouvre la porte aux feux tactiques.

🧵THREAD🧵1/11⬇️ Image
En l'espace de 10 jours, un fossé anti-char entier a été creusé au nord-ouest de Sloviansk, on parle de 20km de fossé, une cadence qui tranche avec la précédente lenteur de la préparation des fortifications.
Comme je l'ai démontré hier en anglais, l'armée ukrainienne met au point sa nouvelle ligne de défense du Donbass, à l'ouest de la région et des principales villes.

Rien que sur cette photo, j'ai aujourd'hui ajouté une quinzaine de nouvelles tranchées. Image

In May 2025, the Russian 🇷🇺 army achieved record advance in Ukraine 🇺🇦 and started faster in June

In Sumy, Lyman and in the south of Donetsk oblast, Moscow pushed back and isolated several fronts, but key cities are not yet threatened.

🧵THREAD🧵1/23⬇️Image
On this beautiful map made by @Pouletvolant3, we can see how much Russia progressed each month of 2025 in Ukraine.

We can see 4 main directions, Kursk and Sumy, Lyman, Kostiantynivka and south of Pokrovsk. Image
To this chart, we can add this one by @Deepstate_UA showing that the month of may 2025 is the 3rd biggest in the last year and half.

We can note the february-march pause that I previously highlighted and the start of the new offensive in late april. Image

En frappant ~30 bombardiers stratégiques de l'armée russe 🇷🇺 depuis le territoire russe, le SBU ukrainien 🇺🇦 signe une opération réussie.

Cette opération aura-t-elle une incidence dans la guerre ? C'est à cette question que je vais essayer de répondre.

🧵THREAD🧵1/24 ⬇️
Depuis des mois, le SBU ukrainien préparait une opération secrète d'ampleur sur le territoire russe, nommée « toile d’araignée ».

Contrairement aux précédentes opérations, les drones ne sont pas partis d'Ukraine, mais bien de Russie.
Pendant des mois, les espions ukrainiens ont créé de toute pièce une entreprise de maisons préfabriquées à Tcheliabinsk, au cœur de la Russie.

Ils ont créé de véritables commandes et préparés des transporteurs. Image

« Putin 🇷🇺 decided to withdraw his forces from Kyiv, Chernihiv, Zhytomyr and Sumy Oblasts as a good will gesture on March 31 (2022)»

@AMK_Mapping_ supposedly "realistic pro-🇺🇦 account" fell again for russian propaganda.

But this time, he is spreading lies.

🧵THREAD🧵1/24 ⬇️
On February 2022, Russian army launched a total of 11 armies to establish the Novorossia project (annex Kharkiv, Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhia, Kherson, Mykolaiv and Odessa oblasts + maybe Poltava and Dnipro) and change the ukrainian government for western Ukraine in Kyiv.Image
AMK states that

1. Putin invaded a country of 560,000km² with ~190,000 troops.
2. Most of these soldiers weren't even deployed in Kyiv Oblast.

He is right, but misunderstand nearly everything. Image

Au printemps 2023, l'armée ukrainienne 🇺🇦 met au point un plan de contre-offensive.

Ce plan entrera en action en juin 2023, au sud de l'Ukraine, pourtant, les russes 🇷🇺 savaient déjà tout et ont pu déjouer l'offensive dans les premières heures.

🧵THREAD🧵1/25 ⬇️ Image
Elle est annoncée en grande pompe, dès l'hiver 2023. La grande offensive du printemps 2023 doit permettre de libérer les territoires occupés par la Russie.

A ce moment, une partie importante de l'armée ukrainienne combattante est embourbée dans l'attrition de Bakhmout. Image
Une autre majeure partie de l'armée ukrainienne est en formation, principalement en occident et dans l'ouest ukrainien, prenant rapidement en main les nouveaux équipements.

A Kyiv, dans le plus grand secret, les plans d'offensive sont préparés. Image
