Other findings of ISW analysts about the situation in Ukraine in the past day: ISW also draws attention to several important trends that can affect the further course of events. The Russian occupation "power" can accelerate the preparation for illegitimate pseudo -referendums in the occupied territories of Ukraine - in response to a change in realities and Ukrainian counter -offensive.
In this context, ISW provides data from Melitopol Ivan Fedorov, according to which the Russian Federation considers the possibility of a seven -day "domestic vote", during which Russian invaders will go home and "interview" residents of Melitopol (Zaporizhzhya region).
And the deputy of the Kherson Regional Council Sergey Khlan noted that in the Kherson region the occupying power has not yet fully determined the conditions of the referendum, but accelerates their preparation after a rubbing pause, which Khlan explained by the attacks of Ukrainian forces on the rear logistics of the enemy. According to Khlan, the previous date of the referendum remains September 11 so -called.
The "only day of voting" in Russia, when there will be a number of elections of different levels. ISW analysts believe that the occupied ways of conducting pseudo -referendum (such as "Voting at home") without personal participation are aimed at several goals: in the Russian military leadership, as before, serious changes occur, which can adversely affect the capabilities of the Russian Federation to manage the army actions Russian Federation in Ukraine.
Such earlier ISW estimates are consistent with the new conclusions of the UK Ministry of Defense, which also believe that at least six high -ranking Russian commanders are probably released from their positions since the war. Among them may be the commander of the Eastern Military District (He) Colonel-General Alexander Tchaiko and the commander of the Western Military District (ZNO) Colonel-General Alexander Zhuravlev.
