Occupants advance in northern Donetsk Region, while Ukrainian Armed Forces advance in Dnipropetrovsk Region. DeepState updates map
Ukrainian analytical project DeepState claims that the army of the aggressor country russia has advanced near two settlements in the Donetsk Region. At the same time, the Ukrainian Defense Forces have pushed back the invaders in the Dnipropetrovsk Region.
This is evidenced by the latest update of the DeepState interactive map of Wednesday, March 18.
According to OSINT analysts, in the Donetsk Region, occupants' troops advanced in the Kramatorsk and Kostiantynivka sectors.
In the Kramatorsk sector, the russian army seized a number of positions near Fedorivka Druha.
In the Kostiantynivka sector, the occupants advanced northwest of the village of Kleban-Byk.
In the Dnipropetrovsk Region, Ukrainian troops drove the occupiers out of a number of positions near the village of Verbove. This is how the approximate front line looks like after updating the DeepState map.
This is what it looked like before the last update.
At the time of publication, the Ukrainian Defense Forces neither confirmed nor denied DeepState's information about the occupiers' advance.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, today the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine said that yesterday, March 17, the russian army suffered the largest daily losses since the beginning of 2026.
As a reminder, on the night of March 17-18, the army of the russian aggressor country launched almost 150 drones at Ukraine. The Ukrainian military managed to shoot down almost all UAVs
