New offensive of the Russian Federation: invaders throw troops "directly into the teeth of Ukrainian defense" - NYT

The army of the Russian Federation has been leading an offensive that had to restore the pace of war. However, Russian troops do not have a serious success. Russian troops have been running their large -scale offensive for the month. During this time, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation was barely shifted. About it reports The New York Times. The publication told how the Armed Forces fighters were defense in the estuary.

For several months, military analysts expected that Russian military under pressure from President Putin would try to restore the pace of war before the anniversary of a full -scale invasion. Since February, Russian troops conducted a series of shelling of the front line in the Donbass, considered it as a trial. However, because of everything, they write in the publication, it is the best that Russian forces are capable of.

The start of the big offensive was stated by the head of GUR Kirill Budanov in an interview with the Ukrainian media. During the year of the full -scale war, Russian troops suffered "stunning losses" of about 200 thousand soldiers. Thousands of tanks and armored personnel carriers have been destroyed or become trophies for the Armed Forces. Artillery ammunition and winged missiles end in the Russian Federation.

Many of the most beautiful, best trained and experienced units have been destroyed, but years, not months, will be destroyed. Therefore, the Kremlin counts on mobilized mobilized training. Experts are increasingly doubting that Russia in its last offensive will be a much greater threat than expected from them. The ISW has already stated that the most intense battles are underway under the estuary, but they are completed without territorial assets.

The Ukrainian strategy is to absorb the strikes and prepare for the spring counter -offensive on Western armored vehicles. The Russian army is undergoing high losses, because more losses in the Donbass, Ukraine will be able to win, Zelensky said. According to analysts, it would be a mistake to believe that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation has thousands of tanks and artillery, as well as the ability to produce armored vehicles. The enemy also has the advantage of living power.

Therefore, General Mark Millie says that the Russian offensive is dangerous because of one number. The only direction where the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is moving is Bakhmut. They approached the city and threaten the Ukrainian forces. However, fierce fighting has been going on for several months, and Bakhmut is still standing.
