Military analyst assessed the likelihood of Russian capture or blockade of Zaporizhzhia.

Hostilities in the area of Mala Tokmachka on the Robotyne direction are becoming increasingly active, but statements about a possible offensive on Zaporizhzhia are manipulation. Russian forces are not even capable of blocking the city, let alone capturing it. This was stated by military-political analyst Dmytro Sniehiriov during a broadcast on the FREEДОМ channel.

A sharp intensification of hostilities has been recorded in the Robotyne direction near Mala Tokmachka. However, this is about Russia trying to exert military and political pressure on the United States, European partners, and Ukraine, scaling up the theater of hostilities and possibly shifting it directly behind the Dnipro.

Sniehiriov emphasized that all reports about a possible storming of Zaporizhzhia are just part of the information-psychological operation being conducted by Russia.

Currently, the Russians themselves admit that they do not have enough operational reserves to even block Zaporizhzhia, let alone directly capture it. Therefore, I reiterate: the situation is difficult, but completely under the control of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
