"It is clear that Artemovsk is of great political and military importance - it is the largest center of defense. If it is taken by our troops, then the defense system of the second lane for the Armed Forces of Ukraine will be practically destroyed. They will have to retreat to the third line of defense, and it will be very problematic to evacuate troops in the conditions of mudslides" the journalist wrote.

In his opinion, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have very few armored vehicles for the possibility of an offensive. It is perfectly clear to everyone that in order to advance successfully - you need to deliver troops under the fire cover of tanks. To minimize the time spent by personnel outside the shelter, outside the armor. The Armed Forces of Ukraine have very little of this equipment, and in muddy conditions it is difficult to carry armor. They have wheeled vehicles predominantly two-axle for the most part. And it has limited patency on soft ground.
