Ukrainian armoured vehicles are already operating beyond the last line of Russian defensive fortifications, which Ukrainian forces are currently breaking through in the west of Zaporizhzhia Oblast – although it is too early to claim that Ukraine’s Armed Forces have completely broken through this Russian defensive layer.

Quote from the ISW: "Geolocated footage posted on September 21 indicates that Ukrainian armoured vehicles advanced south of the Russian anti-tank ditches and dragon’s teeth obstacles that are part of a tri-layered defence and engaged in limited combat immediately west of Verbove (18km southeast of Orikhiv). It is unclear if Ukrainian forces retain these positions, however."
Details: The ISW reported that they saw for the first time that Ukrainian forces are using armoured vehicles outside of Russia's three-layer defence.
The ISW emphasises that the presence of Ukrainian armoured vehicles beyond the last line of the current Russian defence layer indicates that the Ukrainians have sufficiently breached the first two lines of this layer to move their vehicles forward.
"The Ukrainian ability to bring armoured vehicles to and through the most formidable Russian defences intended to stop them and to operate these vehicles near prepared Russian defensive positions are important signs of progress in the Ukrainian counteroffensive," the ISW noted.
