The Armed Forces go to "active defense": General Syrsky named the main threats in the war with the Russian Federation

According to him, such tactics are expensive from the point of view of life, but for Russia it is not a priority. Unlike the Russians, Sirsky says that he deeply experiences the loss of every Ukrainian soldier. "The Russians are not idiots. They are not weak. Anyone who underestimates them is doomed to defeat," Syrsky said. He also noted that the commander should always be in touch with the army, so it receives 300 a day from the military every day.

Oleksandr Syrsky said that during the September offensive of the Armed Forces, light mobile groups were used in the region. He was engaged in their creation, choosing small units from the existing crews. Its most ambitious goals - the capture of the two major logistics units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Kupyansk and Izium was performed by the fifth day of the offensive operation.

The commander says that at least everyone was surprised by the speed of promotion of the Ukrainian military. Instead of adhering to the plan and moving to the defense, he ordered the Armed Forces to expel the occupiers as far as possible. The speed of advancement in 3 days was 50 km.

The commander noted that if after the escape of Russians from Kharkiv region it was possible to transfer the help for the Armed Forces, they would be able to break the occupiers in the north of Lugansk region - in the area of ​​Svatov and Kreminna. However, the Ukrainian forces were connected in the battles near the Lisichansk oil refinery, and the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation were eventually able to stop the offensive, using thousands of again mobilized soldiers.

The general stated that the well -trained Russian soldiers began to appear massively along the entire east line of the front. According to him, it is anxiety. An even more serious problem is to support the supply of weapons to Ukraine. Ammunition is spent at a speed comparable to World War II, and the battle wins the side that quickly delivers projectiles to tools. Syrsky believes that in the near future the Ukrainian military will be in the active defense phase.

"Everything I say is that we study the enemy carefully. And every poison is an antidote," the commander said. We will remind, on December 15 the commander -in -chief of the Armed Forces Valery Zaluzhny stated that the Russian Federation can try to capture Kyiv again. According to him, this can happen in January or February next year. The Kremlin plans to throw almost 200,000 soldiers for war. He also said that Ukraine needs a lot of weapons to enter the borders on February 23.
