There are definitely problems: how difficult is the situation for the Russians with armored vehicles Dzvenislava Moshovskaya

According to foreign media reports, Western analysts claim that the Russians have reactivated their weapons, but 70% of their tanks are not combat-ready. Most of the military facilities are in need of repair.

Former SBU employee Ivan Stupak told 24 Channel that any analytics should be treated very carefully. He explained that if such research is carried out by people who do not have direct access to military resources, but rely only on information from open sources, then their conclusions may not be entirely accurate.

Russia's military potential

Stupak emphasized that it is unknown how many warehouses with military equipment there are in Russia. The enemy in eastern Ukraine is conducting active offensive operations, but the number of armored vehicles there has decreased significantly, and in some places has completely disappeared.

What is the situation near Toretsk: look at the map

A significant number of armored vehicles have appeared in the Toretsky direction; the Russians are hiding them in urban areas. In all other directions, the occupiers advance on foot or use motorcycles. This means that there are definitely problems,” noted the ex-SBU employee.

Russian ceasefire

The Russians have a goal, using any equipment, to seize as much Ukrainian land as possible in order to insist during negotiations on the preservation of these territories as part of the aggressor country.

As long as the Russians have the ability to attack, in particular military and technical resources, until then they will try to occupy as much of the territory of Ukraine as possible. When there is less of everything, they will start talking about a truce,” said Ivan Stupak.
