AFU has already destroyed 17 enemy BTGs/Channel 24 Collage
The Russian army suffers colossal losses in Ukraine. During the three months of the war, our defenders completely destroyed 17 enemy battalion tactical groups.
The invaders are not capable of attacking in several strategic directions
These data were reported by the speaker of the Ministry of Defense Alexander Motuzyanyk. He said this on the air of the national telethon, Channel 24 reports.
According to Motuzyanyk, the Russian army has shown that it cannot conduct active military operations simultaneously in strategic directions. The invaders can only carry out certain tactical operations, but they have already failed the general offensive.
Therefore, now the enemy has focused on specific targets – in the east of Ukraine – and is actively bringing weapons and equipment there.
Russia sent about 170,000 manpower to the war in Ukraine. In total, more than 90 BTGs were involved. About 30 more Russians can put into operation within one and a half to two months. The armed forces of Ukraine are actively destroying the enemy. As of May 17, 17 BTGs have been completely destroyed,” the spokesman of the department noted.
He added that now the situation at the front is very difficult. The hottest – in the Donetsk and Slavic directions. There, the occupiers are firing almost non-stop with all the weapons they have.
Our brave defenders courageously resist the occupiers and for 3 months have not allowed them to carry out their main cynical intention – to seize Ukraine.
