The Russian offensive cannot last forever. Ilya Yevlash, the head of the press service of the Khortytsia operational and strategic grouping of troops, said this in a telethon, commenting on the words of the head of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine Kirill Budanov that the Russian offensive would be "completely exhausted" by spring, UNN correspondent reports.
From what we can see, the enemy will not refuse to fight even this spring, as they continue to form units and prepare reserves. However, from what Budanov said, it is clear that the offensive cannot last forever
He noted that the offensive involves a large involvement of personnel, a large amount of equipment, resources, money, fuel and human resources.
"At the moment, what they have gathered here is not enough to move forward. We are now using our technical superiority, our innovativeness and non-standard approach to warfare," said Yevlash.
He noted that the enemy should not be underestimated.
At the same time, Yevlash said that the situation in the area of responsibility of the Khortytsia unit is stable but controlled.
"The enemy continues to transfer its reserves to the contact line, in particular, in the Bakhmut sector, one of the key goals of the enemy remains to break through our defense line and move towards Chasiv Yar. Our defenders are reliably holding the line there and inflicting maximum damage on the enemy," said Yevlash.
