They complain of heavy losses and that the Armed Forces have successfully and without heavy losses left the city departing new positions. A military expert and former SBU employee Ivan Stupakov told this in an interview with focus. According to him, the next lies of the Russians, who promised to pick up Ukrainian wounded and attach them to the Foundation for the exchange of prisoners. Instead, the Ukrainians were shot.
"Meanwhile, Russian troops do not directly call the losses of the Russian Army in Avdiivka, but they say that they are multiple of losses in Bakhmut," Stupaks emphasize. , some say that 13 thousand, and the General Staff of the Armed Forces led data on the total number of losses of Russians, along with wounded, missing and captives of 47 thousand.
" And the Russians in social networks fight about the absence of a picture with columns of Ukrainian armored vehicles, and also understand that the capture of Avdiivka with huge losses were a purely political decision to satisfy the Kremlin, says military expert. The words of Ivan Stupakov, although all civilians who refused to evacuate from Avdiivka, cannot be recorded in "Zhduns", but some of them could really contribute to the successful promotion of invaders' troops in the city.
It is unfortunate, notes the former SBU employee, but the "Zhduns" are everywhere and even in the west of Ukraine they were detected. "It is difficult to recognize an informant in every civilian, for example, in a grandmother, who goes on the street without photographing," Stupakov said. "And this grandmother could simply remember the location of our troops or units and convey the enemy. " However, the Ukrainian soldiers also try to disorganize "zhduns" that monitor the movement of equipment.
For example, Stupakov says, can drive columns of combat vehicles in a few times so that the informant can not understand how much they actually and where they really move. The expert notes that there are still sleeping agents of Russians in Ukraine, who were recruited in zero years. One day, they call with a secret phrase and offer to make some little things more and more, attracting them to complete betrayal of the state.
