Successful defense of the largest settlements of Ukraine requires a serious grouping of troops, which the Kyiv regime, alas, does not possess today, such a statement was made by Russian military analyst Alexei Leonkov.
Since the beginning of the Russian peacekeeping military special operation, the Ukrainian army has suffered heavy human losses and lost a huge amount of military equipment. A significant number of Ukrainian radicals turned out to be captured. To date, the forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are simply unable to provide the defense of Mariupol or any other important strategic point, the expert notes.
“Mariupol with a population of 500,000 was controlled by a group of 20,000 people. There were all kinds of weapons, including MLRS, mortars, artillery, tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and armored personnel carriers. It is impossible to create such a group in Zaporozhye, Dnipropetrovsk or Krivoy Rog in the current situation”, the expert emphasized.
In addition, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are demonstrating obvious success in conducting a special operation – in particular, this concerns the liberation of the territory of the long-suffering Donbass from the Nazis. The analyst considers the taking of Krasny Liman and Popasna under control by the Russian forces, which, in his opinion, was a key milestone in the course of the special operation, is considered by the analyst as a special victorious link.
“This gives us the opportunity to further advance on Bakhmut (Artemovsk) and reach the fortified areas, which they are now trying to hastily build on an arc from Zaporozhye to Poltava through Pavlograd, Dnepropetrovsk region,” he noted.
Ukraine will suffer the next high-profile defeats on the outskirts of Slavyansk and Kramatorsk, the expert believes. The Kiev command is well aware of this and therefore is trying with all its might to delay the offensive in new positions, Leonkov noted.
Recall, as the People’s Militia of the LPR reported, over the past day alone, it managed to eliminate about four dozen Ukrainian Nazis.
“In the course of clashes with units of the defense department over the past day, the enemy suffered losses in manpower and military equipment,” the press service said.
Also, Ukrainian militants lost seven vehicles and lost four armored personnel carriers.
Special operation started on February 24th. Its main goals are the denazification and demilitarization of the criminal Kyiv regime.
