Top Russian officer reports advances on all Ukrainian fronts
- On September 17, Russia’s top military commander Valery Gerasimov visited active combat zones and reported that Russian forces were making progress across nearly all fronts in Ukraine.
- This report contrasts with Ukrainian President Zelensky's statement on September 16 that Russia's last three offensives had failed and two more major campaigns are planned.
- Gerasimov highlighted intense fighting around Pokrovsk in Donetsk and progress in Zaporizhzhia, Dnipropetrovsk, Kupiansk, and Yampil regions, while Ukrainian forces claim to repel advances and capture enemy soldiers near Kupiansk.
- Ukrainian forces regained 58 square kilometers and several settlements from Russian occupation, yet Russia claims continued offensive success, with Gerasimov stating advances in practically all sectors and ongoing combat near key sites.
- These contrasting accounts underscore the fog of war and suggest Russian gains remain limited despite their stated advances, while Ukraine prepares for new offensives and continues to deploy elite units in defense.
