🇷🇺🇺🇦⚡- Ukraine has built a vast amount of defensive structures in the Dnepr region (mapped in yellow).

In late October we reported that Ukraine had begun constructing new lines of fortifications in the Dnepr and Zaporozhye regions. The map above shows the rapid progress by the Ukrainian side, with yellow being the new structures and red are the existing structures.

Ukraine seems to be building three lines of defenses facing eastwards, with two in front of the Dnepr river. And two lines of defenses facing southwards. The other notable work can be seen around Pavlograd, which has effectively been surrounded by fortifications. Ukrainian defenses are also visible on the left-bank of the Dnepr, especially around Dnepr International Airport.
