Britain's daily intelligence analysis reports biggest success, achieved by the Russian army in the Donbass over the past month. This refers to advancement in the Bakhmut area (Artemovsk) ten kilometers.
This is reported by the British media corporation BBC..
In other sectors of the front in the Donbass, the advance amounted to, according to the authors of the report, no more than three kilometers. Mentioning the "Russian troops", British analysts, as it appears, they mean not only the Russian army, but also the People's Militia of the Donetsk and Luhansk Republics. they believe, that the allies are not advancing fast enough.
In its report, British intelligence named the factor, hindering the rapid advance of the allied forces in the Donbass. According to its analysts, Russians lack combat-ready infantry units. therefore, despite a significant advantage in artillery, progress is slow.
Besides, the report states, that in the south of Ukraine the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are strengthening defensive positions, while attacks on the fortifications of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and national battalions continue on the territory of the DPR.
Earlier, Russian war correspondent Yevgeny Poddubny also mentioned the reasons for the slow advance of the allied forces.. In his opinion, this is hindered by Ukrainian artillery, which has yet to be completely suppressed.
And although the offensive of the allied forces is considered by many not to be fast enough, excessive haste is also unlikely to be appropriate, because it increases the risk of increased losses among the personnel of the advancing troops. used photos:Defense Ministry
