High-ranking officers of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, on condition of anonymity, told Politico that there is a serious risk of the front line collapsing if Russia concentrates its offensive in one area. As explained in the article, this is due to the superiority of Russian forces in terms of both manpower and technology.
Ukraine faces a major risk that its front line could collapse wherever Russia decides to focus its offensive, Politico writes, citing senior Ukrainian officers.
With much larger troop numbers and guided aerial bombs that have been rattling Ukrainian positions for weeks, Russia would likely be able to “penetrate the front line and destroy it in some areas,” military officials said on condition of anonymity.
“Nothing can help Ukraine now, because there is no serious technology that can compensate Ukraine for the large mass of troops that Russia is likely to throw at us. We don’t have such technologies, and the West doesn’t have them in sufficient quantities either,” a senior military source told Politico.
