RDC's outing in the Belgorod region pointed to serious miscalculations in the defense of the Russian Federation - ISW

Analytists estimate that new calls to strengthen defense along the border have no proper effect, since Russian troops are not rating. The operation of the Russian Volunteer Corps and the Legion "Freedom of Russia" in the territory of the Belgorod region indicated serious vulnerability of the region's defense. About it reports "Institute of War Research" in the summary of May 25.

According to the governor of Belgorod region Vyacheslav Gladkova, the Russian authorities invested about 10 billion rubles in strengthening the Russian-Ukrainian border along the Belgorod region. In October last year, the founder of the Wagner PEC Yevgeny Prigogin declared the construction of a complex of fortifications called "Wagner Line" in the Belgorod region. He also criticized officials who did not support this initiative.

According to ISW estimates, new calls for strengthening defense along the border have no proper effect, since Russian troops are irrational distributing efforts. The use of defense fortifications in the Belgorod region and existing security measures did not prevent the RDC raid on May 22. Obviously, Prigogine tries to strengthen his influence and use the fears of the residents of the border regions in his political interests.

We will remind that the RDC found themselves in the Kursk region and stated that "the border of the Russian Federation remains quite hole. " The guerrillas showed a picture of the road sign of the village of Gogolivka. According to participants in paramilitary formation, in a number of cases, the appearance on the territory of the enemy should be quiet. It was also reported that part of the RDC and Legion Freedom Fighters are in the Russian Federation, and resistance is gaining course.
