Russian troops continue to advance steadily in Ukraine’s Sumy region, capturing several more settlements and expanding their zone of control despite fierce Ukrainian attempts to counterattack. Over the past 24 hours, Moscow’s forces have reportedly liberated more than 20 square kilometers of the region’s territory, with fighting now centered around key villages such as Andriivka, Novomykolaivka, and Yunakivka.
The Russian military is following the order of President Putin, enlarging the buffer zone near the border of the Russian Federation. The border village of Kondratovka (Kindrativka) has reportedly come under full Russian control on the evening of June 1st.
UPD: According to preliminary reports, Andreevka (Andriivka) and Novonikolaevka (Novomykolaivka) also came under Russian control.

Russian drone operators maintain tight surveillance over supply routes in the region, severely disrupting Ukrainian movements. Ukrainian troops have complained about being outmatched in drone warfare, a recurring issue since the fighting in Kursk region earlier this year.
Local reports suggest that Russian forces are relying on heavy artillery and airstrikes to soften Ukrainian defenses before infantry advances, minimizing direct engagements. This tactic has allowed them to systematically expand their “security zone” while grinding down Ukrainian manpower. A precision strike by Russian Aerospace Forces using glide bombs (FABs with UMPK) destroyed a Ukrainian forward deployment base, further weakening defensive efforts in the Sumy region.
Russian strikes in the region:
Ukrainian forces continue attempts to launch assaults near Russian villages of Tiotkino and Glushkovka, involving units from the 24th Assault Battalion “Aidar,” 225th, and 425th Assault Regiments. However, Russian troops are successfully repelling these attacks, eliminating Ukrainian assault groups. A notable incident involved the destruction of a Ukrainian drone team, including a female UAV squad from the 47th Mechanized Brigade, whose commander, callsign “Valkyrie,” was reportedly killed.
With drone support neutralized, Ukrainian infantry suffered heavy losses, forcing survivors to retreat into ruined buildings in Pavlivka. Morale appears to be collapsing among some Ukrainian units, with relatives of missing soldiers publicly urging troops to surrender to “save their lives.”
The Sumy offensive underscores Russia’s growing momentum in the north, where Ukrainian defenses appear increasingly strained. While Kyiv attempts to stabilize the front, its forces face severe shortages of drones, artillery, and motivated personnel, particularly among the recently mobilized troops. As fighting intensifies, Russia’s Nort grouping continues to push toward Sumy city, aiming to bring the regional capital within FPV drone strike range. Ukrainian forces are reportedly fortifying a secondary defensive line 40 km from the border, anticipating further Russian advances.
the allies can attack anywhere inside russia anytime they want…and there is nothing that midget putin can do to stop it!!!
russia can do the same, just a truck parked close to a nato base an a few drones with fiber optic or controlled from moscow like they did weeks ago in donbass front to destroy f-35
russia could do it if their ruler wasn’t a western sycophant that worships the west
you are the one whoring for the west.
nah, just sick of seeing russia humliated because put put is yeltsin.
it just take them two years to prepare. next time they’ll try, there will be no ukraine.
funny how an one off operation that 90% failed somehow turns into ‘anytime they want’.
the bozo award go to ukraine/nato propagandists, as usual, for their total disregard for reality.
once every 1.5 years so they’d better hurry with the next one! :)
or there will be no ukraine left!
yeah, ok. pinprick attacks on old bombers and terrorist attacks on civilian trains full of women and children. meanwhile, the ukraine is steadily reduced to the size of luxemburg. 🤣😂😅
putin did not win anything he rather order to take over villages and leave big cities were the enemy hides and plan.this type of war is called back and forth.if the enemy counter attack you retreat for month or years.
sure, sure… except since this is a war of attrition that ukraine is losing, it is in no position to counter attack. it even has not enough men to man the entire front line. try to cope harder.
at least his military vehicles have a forward gear!
number of nato troops killed today—0.
number of orcs exterminated today—100’s!
heheheh
i wouldn’t be so sure.
ukrainian/nato propagandists are bad at math, as demonstrated by their inability to count destroyed planes for example.
they also are bad at making sense and making arguments longer than one line.
# of americunts cowards that fear death—335 million
looks like the wrong building was hit.
looks like you missed a lot of the planes.
looks like dumb americunt is blind
now seems to be there is nothing russia can do but retire from ukraine to 1991 borders. even this will not stop the west and nato from inflicting more sanctions and pain on russia until they have russia and its leaders completely under their thumb.
the copium is strong with this one. this large dose of copium prevent reality with interracting with his brain, leading to massive delusion.
nato will not stop after this war because they are ordered to keep pushing. the goal is to divide russia in around 20 states and steal all the natural resources. the same the central bankers are doing in african nations for many years already. the policy papers of this are public knowledge so why is nobody talking about it🤔
the allies humiliated putin again!!!
it’s all about pr and image for the nato/ukrainian propagandists. but pr and images won’t be able to hold their ground against advancing russian forces.
putin humiliates himself by continuing to dream of being a westerner too
vanya the mi6 agent trying to pass for someone sympathetic for russia but somehow only can fault russia and its leaders for some reason. never a word above the other about the west, except to blame russian leadership.
zelenski’s said he would turn ukraine into “big israel” yet it is getting smaller
amici non è colpa di altri, la russia ha perso, il nemico dei russi sono i russi, hanno distrutto l’urss, la marcia su mosca di prigozin, e adesso distruggono quello che resta e raccontano al presidente putin bugie un uomo rimasto solo e per finire la cara odessa è persa, mi dispiace davvero mi dispiace.
again ?😆😆 as usual typical s.f propaganda
no : it is usual nato retreat. you should be used by now.
the plodding advance in the sumy region is a joke.
what is a joke is claiming everywhere that 1/3 (or was it 2/3) of the russian strategic bomber fleet has been destroyed and expecting to retain any credibility.
the ukrainians are the renowned worldwide experts of retreat.
amerikunt vanya humiliated tantrums
russia captured area size of 2 acres and one old woman with no teeth.
rf soldiers looted her house and ate her bread.
it is not the area captured that is important, but the quantity of dead ukrainian soldiers that will rot on it.
so you admit the ukrainians retreated by two acres and sold their granny?
amerikunt captured 1 gay goat herder and surrendered to taliban
rus liberated 21 towns past 8 days—americunt anuz liberated by houthis
i’m very dissappointed how crap russian military is.
we expect nothing more from a compass pointing toward the south, as are all nato/ukrainian propagandists.
but why are they winning then🤡
you should join the ukrainian army which only has a reverse gear! :)
taliban no disappointment about lgbt americunt military
the new defensive line will be a sparcely manned swiss cheese🧀🧀🧀
things have changed . the nato / cia / mossad / greater israel mafia have opened the door for expanded terrorist operations . brics nations and sympathisers also have these capabilities . but a gangster is a gangster and does not think about repercussions .
