"South is the key to the whole war." The defeat of the Russians in Kherson will be the beginning of the end of the whole invasion - an interview with the Israeli officer

The head of GUR Kirill Budanov, and the Minister of Defense Alexei Reznikov, spoke about it. Today, on August 1, of course, the situation is very dynamic. What do you think we can predict in view of what we have now? Let's go directly to our fronts, it is possible to start from the south. - We see that Russia has decided to fight in the south, they charge the minor forces they have, in particular, transferred from the Donbass, from the south.

They smear their strength with such a thin layer in all directions. The fight will be, they decided not to leave Kherson, not to go, but to fight for him. What it all over is-let's look in August-September. - You say "those minor forces".

And what slight forces can we talk about, a little - how much? -They throw parts there, these are hundreds of pieces of equipment, but it is often the technique, first, logistics, they have everything very bad with logistics, they are transferred there from tractors, excavators to various waterways, gas trucks, etc. Secondly, it should be understood that all those parts that are transferred there, battalion-tactical groups, etc. , are shabby parts, are not full.

When you hear "two battalions", these are not battalions of 600 people. It can be 300 people. This applies to the rest, other parts too. In total, they say that the group is estimated at 5 thousand people, which is located on the right bank. And there, probably, is now thrown in the area, possibly from 5 to 10 thousand. These are not the forces that can be drawn somewhere, but these are the forces you can try to keep. That is, they decided to fight.

The main question here is not in the number of equipment, but whether they can adjust the supply. - Antonovsky bridge, they are trying to repair. - Yes, they patch the Antonov bridge and not only it, the question here is whether they will be able to adjust uninterrupted supply. This is the most important thing, not how many soldiers they will still turn away, the plus minus thousands does not matter, because if you do not have a supply or work very bad, then the number of soldiers does not matter.
