Weakness in defense: the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are unlikely

Military analysts believe that the Russian units in this area have remained without reinforcement, which can be used by the Armed Forces to continue the counter -offensive. Experts of the American Analytical Center for the Study of the War (ISW) suggest that the grouping of Russian troops, which is in defensive positions on the left bank of the Oskil River in Kharkiv region, is unlikely to be able to prevent the further promotion of the Armed Forces.

According to ISW, in order to resist the promotion of the Ukrainian army, the Russians need reinforcement, which is likely not. Analysts say that the positions of the Armed Forces near Oskol are weakened enough, which can be used by Ukrainian troops if the military command makes such a decision.

"Russian troops are unlikely to be strong enough to impede the further progress of Ukrainian troops along the entire Oskil River, because they, apparently, do not receive reinforcements, and Ukrainian troops will probably be able to take advantage of this weakness to restore counter -offensive in isw.

Analysts say that during the last day the Ukrainian forces continued to strengthen their positions in the Kharkiv direction and probably carry out local attacks of land attacks in the north of Donetsk region in the Slavyansk region. So, using success in Svyatogorsk, Ukrainian armed forces put pressure on the position of Russians in the estuary.

It is also reported that the Ukrainian army continues to attack the northeast raisin in the area of ​​Borova settlement, creating a threat to Russian positions along the Oskil River. The Russian bloggers themselves write about it, indicating that 30 km from the Izium part of the Armed Forces crossed the river Oskil River and carry out local attacks. Earlier, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported that 8,000 square meters had been released since the beginning of the counter -offensive.
