According to the expert, the army of the Russian Federation is no longer needed Bakhmut, he only needs the owner of PEC "Wagner" Yevgeny Prigogine. "The Russian army can even perform a managed departure - it is a normal military maneuver. When leaving the best positions for defense. Therefore, the linear parts of the Russians can move away. Well, what will do a purest parts somewhere to escape.
This is not so important because the number of troops in Prigogine is now less than 1% of the total number of Russian troops, which are along the front line, "Svitan explained. The military expert also analyzed the possible further actions of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Donetsk. According to Roman Svitan, the Russian army has several more positions that are still left of the winter offensive.
The expert is convinced that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation have enough forces and means to move at these positions. "It is Bakhmut, Kreminna and Donetsk district. In the Donetsk area, they will try to move our troops from the city's line - in Avdiivka and Mariinka will try to remove our troops from Bakhmut. We are already coming down - we rise in heights and surround Bakhmut. He did not say that we surround him, but at least remove the problem from our garrison in Bakhmut.
After we went out to the tick, we climbed north of the chrome, this garrison can already choose the best defense mode, "Svitan said. According to a military expert, the occupied city of Kreminna Lugansk region in the Russians is one of the bridgeheads from which they want to "cut" the Bigorivsky performance. In addition, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will try to extract the forces of Ukraine's defense for the Siverskyi Donets, Oskil and from the Liman.
"That is, they will try to take a more profitable position for the defense of the Luhansk region," Svitan summarized. We will remind, according to the latest report of the Institute of War Study (ISW) of May 18, the Armed Forces intercepted a tactical initiative and achieved tactically significant success in the Bakhmut direction. Defense forces have been spent for several days local counterattack, which have not yet indicated the beginning of a large counter -offensive.
