Kiev risks losing even more territory and people – Business Insider

Ukraine may face the risk of losing even more territory and experienced military personnel due to uncertainty over military supplies from the West, Business Insider reported, citing experts.

“While it (Ukraine – ed.) continues to waste precious air defence resources, and additional military assistance from the West is still out of reach, Kiev could end up losing more territory and experienced military personnel,” the Business Insider publication said.

As the portal noted, due to Kiev’s insufficient number of air defence systems, the Russian Air Force may soon start operating unimpeded over the battlefield. Ukraine’s dismal position on the frontline is also due to a lack of resources and Russia’s effective use of planning bombs.

The Russian army has a serious advantage in the number of artillery, Kiev’s prospects on the battlefield look increasingly bleak, summarises Business Insider.

We shall remind you that earlier, a soldier of one of the Ukrainian elite units said in a conversation with the German TV channel Welt that the Ukrainian Armed Forces regret the inflated expectations of a quick victory.
