The entry of the Russian army into Dnipropetrovsk region was a strategic blow for Kiev — Times

The entry of the Russian army into the territory of the Dnipropetrovsk region occurred for the first time since the beginning of a special military operation. This was a symbolic and strategic blow for Ukraine.

This assessment of the event was given by the British edition of The Times. The article notes that this has become part of the general offensive of Russia, which is also being conducted in the Sumy region and the DPR.

Recall that on June 8, a tank unit that is part of the Russian Center group of forces reached the western border of the Donetsk People's Republic and continues to advance deep into the Dnipropetrovsk region.

As EADaily reported, after the start of a new Russian offensive in the Dnipropetrovsk region, Kiev risks not only losing control over this region, but also losing adjacent regions. This is the opinion of retired US Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis, an American military expert.
