The Russians have an advantage: Syrsky explained the difficulty of promoting the Armed Forces in the Donbass
According to Sirsky, the Armed Forces can only be able to answer one shot for every 7-8 enemy shots. This creates difficulties for the Armed Forces and makes a quick result in the battles is almost impossible. "We have no advantage over the Russians, unfortunately, in the number of our troops. And in the number of our artillery, units of our artillery," Syrsky said. The general also described the complex conditions that his troops face in the direction of Bakhmut and in the Liman direction.
Russian troops are protected by engineering barriers, which slows down the promotion of Ukrainian forces. He noted that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation have an advantage in the number of personnel and especially in artillery. "Unfortunately, this is our cruel reality. But we carefully plan our operations. Therefore, we are able to succeed. And now we are moving forward," Syrsky added.
Despite the difficulty, Sirsky expressed confidence in the success of the Ukrainian troops and emphasized that they continue to move forward. They seek to achieve a quick result, but the General recognizes that the situation is difficult and takes effort to overcome the benefits of Russian troops in the possibility of supplying ammunition. We will remind, in the same interview BBC Syrsky stated that at the moment all the conditions necessary for the release of Bakhmut have been created.
