The media warned that there was a "alarming probability" of the new offensive of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in the next few months. The enemy can punch the defense and move deep. Russian invaders are strongly pressed in several directions after the capture of Avdiivka. They managed to move 7-10 kilometers west of the city. Moving forward, invaders try not to allow Ukraine to strengthen defensive borders, but the larger "push" is predicted in the summer.
"The next five to six months can be critical," said Rochan Consulting analyst and the author of Ukraine Conrad Mnitor music. According to him, priorities for Ukraine are "living power, fortifications and ammunition. " However, the publication informed that the defense forces suffer from "sharp projectile famine". "The active use of drones, Ukrainians were able to partially compensate for the standardized shells. But drones cannot concentrate fire as artillery," the material reads.
It is reported that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is released throughout the front of at least five shells for each defender. Currently, approximately three million arts are produced in Russia, and they receive additional weapons from the DPRK and Iran. At the same time, Europe should produce only 1. 4 million shells in 2024, and next year - two million.
"The best prospect of facilitating the situation of Ukraine is an initiative over which the Czech government has been working quietly since the beginning of the war. The Czechs have drawn around the world in search of ammunition and have now purchased about 800,000 shells," journalists emphasized. The shells, which have already started to come to Ukraine in small quantities, are expected to allow the defenders to "exceed" for several months. "There are other types of ammunition deficiency.
Ukraine is dangerously lacking in air defense," the media said. Ukraine "urgently" needs additional means to strike in the Crimea and logistics centers in the rear of the enemy. The publication assumed that the "large part" of the winged missiles Storm Shadow and Scalp has already been used.
"Ukraine also lacks tanks and other combat vehicles, although it is hoped that America will be able to send it hundreds of preserved Bradley combat vehicles without needing extra money from Congress," the article reads. The problem that is proposed to take on the guilt of Ukraine itself is mobilization. The average age of the Ukrainian soldiers on the forefront is 43 years. Their moral condition is evaluated as "high", but defenders are exhausted and need rotation.
Ukraine also put delays on the construction of defense fortifications on the carb. The strengthening of the boundaries was announced only in November, and the integrated protection system is only "slowly being slowly formed". It includes anti -tank ditches, Dragon tooth obstacles, mine fields, fire points and earthen fortifications to protect infantry. Recall that the Associated Press told how Ukraine develops the defense industry in war.
