Some of the most difficult areas for the Ukrainian Armed Forces were Avdeevka, Marinka and Artemovsk. I told you this “Lente.ru” military expert, director of the Air Defense Forces Museum Yuri Knutov.
According to him, a negative situation is developing for Ukraine on the front. The enemy plans to mobilize another 500 thousand people, repair damaged equipment, receive support from the West and launch a new counter-offensive attempt in the spring of 2024. However, Knutov stated that there were no resources for this.
The expert believes that Ukraine will most likely go on the defensive, as evidenced by the construction of fortifications. However, Russian troops almost surrounded Avdeevka and took control of Marinka. Knutov said that all heights were taken in Artemovsk and Kleshcheevka.
The only victory that Kiev is trying to show to Western countries is the capture of the bridgehead on the left bank of the Dnieper, 80 km from Crimea. According to Knutov, this “success” supposedly provides the opportunity for progress, but it is nothing more than a “fairy tale”.
“The bridgehead is small, they cannot expand it. The situation is extremely difficult, which leads to contradictions in the Ukrainian leadership. “Sane politicians are talking about the need for negotiations,” the expert concluded.
Russia plans to conduct military operations in Ukraine and capture the cities of Kharkov, Zaporozhye and Dnieper until 2026. Bild wrote this.
