Russian troops are looking for weaknesses in Ukrainian defense in Donetsk and Luhansk regions - Khortytsia OSGT
The invaders have not abandoned the idea of reaching the administrative borders of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions, and are now looking for weaknesses to break through the Ukrainian defense.
According to Censor.NET, citing Ukrinform, the spokesman for the Khortytsia OSGT Viktor Trehubov said this on television.
"They are looking for at least some places where they have some potential breakthrough. The other thing is that, in my opinion, the capabilities of Ukrainian troops are gradually but steadily increasing, while the Russians are beginning to face a certain crisis, including supply and personnel shortages," the spokesman said.
According to him, the Russians have not abandoned the idea of reaching the administrative borders of the two regions.
"If they set out to take full administrative control of the two regions, they will try to do so. The other thing is that, let's be honest, they are very far from this goal. Even a small part of the Luhansk region, which they failed to capture, they still cannot capture. Although now there is another escalation there (in our Luhansk sector)," noted Trehubov.
He also added that the enemy is very far from capturing Donetsk region.
Regarding the impact of the weather on Russian activity, Trehubov said that they are now using motorcycles and buggies more for advancement, as convoys of tanks and heavy equipment are very quickly destroyed by drones.
