The Russian military-political leadership has set the task of reaching the borders of the Luhansk and Donetsk regions by the end of March. The enemy has another month to achieve what he wants.
Given the pace of the offensive that we are seeing now, there are doubts that they will physically succeed. Military expert Sergei Grabsky said this to Channel 24 .
There is still potential
According to the military expert, promotion is still possible. There is the problem of Bakhmut, the difficult situation in the Avdiivka area. Our guys are holding out in the Marinka area, we are confidently holding positions in the Ugledar area. Therefore, the voiced goal for the enemy may be unattainable.
But this does not prevent the invaders from declaring that Bakhmut was the target of the offensive. the goal has been reached. The Russians have a similar situation,” Grabsky noted.
In other directions, he adds, the enemy continues to try to break through. Desperate battles are going on in the Kremensky forest, where in the oncoming battles the Ukrainian defenders repulse enemy attacks, holding back the offensive.
“In general, the situation is still difficult. The enemy has sufficient potential, he has not committed resources and reserves to the battle that would allow us to say that he has reached the peak of his capabilities. He still has potential,” the military expert emphasized.
Considering that a new wave of mobilization has not been announced, the enemy has certain limitations. As Grabsky noted, the number of Russian troops on the front line is estimated at 360,000-370,000. Also about 150 thousand reserve.
