## Resource

This is "Frontline Updates", the podcast that turns daily battlefield reports into operational intelligence. I’m your host. Today’s briefing from the Russian Ministry of Defence, dated May 25, 2026, contains a significant milestone: the liberation of Dobropasovo in the Dnipropetrovsk region by the EAST Group of Forces. This is the first reported capture of a settlement in that province, marking a westward shift of the front line beyond the Donetsk administrative border. Meanwhile, the CENTER Group continues to inflict heavy losses, over 290 Ukrainian troops, while aviation and missile forces struck 142 infrastructure targets, including fuel depots, airfield infrastructure, and an assembly area for uncrewed surface vehicles. To help us understand what these developments mean for the campaign, we are joined again by Colonel A.C. Oguntoye, an infantry officer with extensive experience in combined arms operations and ground-level command. Colonel Oguntoye will walk us through each sector, from the improved tactical situation in the north to the breakthrough in Dnipropetrovsk, and we will devote a full segment to the aviation and naval drone campaign that is shaping the deep battle. As always, this is a professional, non-propagandistic analysis. We use reported figures for trend assessment and doctrinal insight. Let’s begin. #SMOAnalysis #Dobropasovo #OperationalArt #AttritionWarfare #DnipropetrovskFront #RussianOffensive2026 #EWWarfare #LogisticsTargeting #HIMARSInterception #bf7 #mw4
