Actual control must be established.Russian forces continue offensive operations northwest of Orikhiv near Prymorske and Stepnohirsk in Zaporizhzhia Oblast but achieved no confirmed advances as of March 28, according to ISW assessments, amid mechanized assaults repelled by Ukrainian defenders who destroyed Russian armored vehicles and inflicted casualties. This follows Ukrainian counteroffensives in February and early March, where units like Artan and GUR special forces regained key positions, including footage from Stepnohirsk's center confirming control over much of the settlement. The village remains heavily contested on the western Zaporizhia frontline, with no verified full Russian capture. Traders weigh ongoing escalation risks in Russia's anticipated spring campaign against Ukrainian fortifications and recent defensive successes, with market resolution tied to ISW maps showing complete Russian control.
