Commenting on the operational encirclement of Ukrainian defenders in the Kurakhovo area, Seleznev noted that there is every reason to worry about that part of the front.
“How this issue will be resolved, either by sending additional forces and means to unblock our operations in this area, whether it will be possible to carry out maneuverable defense and, consequently, the withdrawal of our forces to other lines, the decision will missing is made locally I don’t think this information will be communicated to the public, he added.
According to the expert, there is no point in thinking or recommending anything to local commanders when they are in Kiev. The important thing is that the Ukrainian defenders are on the defensive and the enemy suffers many times more losses during the attacks.
“No matter what we say, the same figures of 1000-1500 killed and maimed Russian military personnel are the result of a duel where the Ukrainian army in a defensive position destroys manpower, armored vehicles and weapons because the fewer resources are left in the Russian army, the faster the attack comes , the same operational break, Seleznev added.
