Cannot attack endlessly: in September the possibilities of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation near Pokrovsk are exhausted - NSU

This opinion was voiced by the major of the reserve of the National Guard of Ukraine and a veteran of the Russian-Ukrainian war Alexei Hetman on the air "Espresso. TV". According to him, battles for the city of Pokrovsk in Donetsk can last for months, so it is not necessary to spread panic moods about the possible loss of settlements with arguments, they say, this will lead to global and catastrophic consequences that will affect the course of war.

"Similar forecasts have already been heard when we retreated with Bakhmut's fights, and said that it gave the Russians the opportunity to move north from Bakhmut to Kupyansk, Lyman, coal and surrounding much of our troops. But this did not happen. They continued the offensive , and we were forced to retreat from Avdiivka.

Separately, the NSU reserve major added that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation can try to bypass Pokrovsk, because hostilities in urban conditions are always delayed indefinitely. If we talk about the current rate of advancement of the Russians, the forces of defense are forced to retreat for one kilometer in 3-4 days, says the veteran of the war, but the enemy troops may soon be exhausted. "No army is able to attack endlessly.

Sooner or later, according to the end of September, and more likely, even earlier, the possibilities of Russians to attack with such intensity are exhausted," - summed up Alexei Hetman. We will remind, on August 28 it was reported that the Armed Forces named the threat of the capture of Pokrovsk. According to the officer of the 59th OMB, from April of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation were able to go 10-15 km forward, but during this period the losses measured by thousands.
