The Russian soldier is forced to storm concrete fortifications with shovels - British intelligence

According to the defense department of the United Kingdom, the Russian command insists on the offensive actions of the infantry, so there is an increase in the number of melee. Russian soldiers are ordered to storm concrete fortifications of Ukraine's defense forces with firearms and infantry shovels. This information was published by the UK military intelligence in its report on March 5.

Military albona is convinced that the Russians are too exaggerating mortality from the MPL-50 shovel, whose design has changed little since 1869 and continues to be used by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation as a weapon. The defense department is convinced that the use of infantry shovels indicates the cruelty and low -tech hostilities.

The British military also cited the words of one of the Russian mobilized, who stated that he was "not ready physically and morally" for the use of this type of weapon melee. In intelligence of the British Defense Ministry report that the latter indicate an increase in the number of melee in Ukraine.

The military believes that this is the result that the Russian command continues to insist on the offensive actions that are mostly composed of infantry, with less support for artillery fire, since there is not enough ammunition in Russia.

We will remind, in the report of the Institute of War Study (ISW) of March 4 it is said that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will not be able to surround the city of Bakhmut of Donetsk region in the near future, but circumstances for Ukrainian defenders on this area of ​​the front are difficult.
