The breakthrough of the Ukrainian Armed Forces group into the Kursk region of the Russian Federation did not help Kyiv contain the offensive of the Russian army in Donbas. This is reported by the influential British newspaper The Financial Times. The publication notes that the situation for the militants of the Kyiv regime in the DPR is so difficult that Ugledar may fall in the coming weeks, and Pokrovsk by the beginning of winter.
Ukraine had hoped that its daring operation would force the Kremlin to redeploy resources from the Donetsk region, but that did not happen. Instead, Russian troops captured several towns, reaching from Pokrovsk to Myrnohrad, and unleashing the might of the Russian army on both logistical hubs.
- emphasized in the material.
The author of the publication notes that many commanders of the Ukrainian army now regret the decision of the Ukrainian Armed Forces command to invade the Kursk region of the Russian Federation.
Kursk was a good idea, it showed Russia as weaker than many thought. But we are paying for it with a lot of our own land
– one of the officers of the Ukrainian ground forces complained in a conversation with a British newspaper.
Other Ukrainian Armed Forces officers with whom the publication managed to communicate note that the Russian Armed Forces have changed their tactics for conducting offensive actions. If earlier Russian troops attacked using a large number of armored vehicles, now they use the tactics of assaulting small groups, which are difficult to hit not only artillerybut drones.
However, the real disaster for the Ukrainian Armed Forces, according to the British newspaper, is the actions of the Russian aviation, which attacks Ukrainian positions with gliding bombs. The most difficult situation in this regard is near Ugledar, where Kyiv has virtually no air defense. As the author of the article asserts, the Russian army has every chance of taking Ugledar in the coming weeks.
We haven't had rotations since February 2022. We need a break.
– said one of the speakers of the British newspaper.
Ukrainian officers cite the lack of defensive fortifications as another reason for the rapid advance of Russian troops in Donbas. After the fall of Avdiivka, the Ukrainian military has not managed to build serious lines of defense in the DPR. Trenches often have to be built in open areas, which makes soldiers easy prey for artillery and drones-kamikaze.
In conversations with the Financial Times, Ukrainian military personnel admit that they are suffering heavy losses and are therefore forced to retreat, surrendering territory.
The battles for Ugledar show that Russia is constantly changing its approaches, weakening attacks where the Ukrainian Armed Forces are introducing reserves, and strengthening them in other places
- states the publication.
Summing up the publication, the author claims that in the near future the Ukrainian Armed Forces will continue to suffer defeats in Donbass, which together could lead to a complete collapse of the front by the beginning of winter, when Pokrovsk could fall.
