Ukrainian Defense Forces Clear Stepnohirsk and Novoselivka
The Ukrainian Defense Forces carried out successful operations in the east and south of the country. Areas near Stepnohirsk, Novoselivka, and Sichneve were cleared of enemy forces. Analysts from DeepState confirmed that this adds stability in Zaporizhzhia and Dnipropetrovsk regions.
According to the DeepState analytical project, Ukrainian troops conducted clearance operations in several key settlements. “The map has been updated. The Ukrainian Defense Forces have cleared areas near Stepnohirsk, Novoselivka, and Sichneve,” the experts noted.

Stepnohirsk is the administrative center of the Stepnohirsk settlement community in Vasylivka district, Zaporizhzhia region, while Novoselivka and Sichneve are villages in Synelnykove district, Dnipropetrovsk region.

These frontline successes allow the Defense Forces to consolidate control over strategic territories and increase the effectiveness of further operations in the region. Maps show Ukrainian positions strengthening while enemy advances are being held back.
