Russia may continue to compensate for its limited ground maneuvering capabilities with artillery and missile strikes.
Due to significant losses, Russian units are forced to return to the territory of Belarus and Russia. According to the British Ministry of Defense, they are retreating to reform and replenish supplies.
“Such activity puts additional pressure on the tense situation with Russia's logistics and demonstrates the difficulties faced by Russia during the reorganization of its units in the advanced regions of Ukraine,” the statement said.
The British Ministry of Defense also added that Russia is expected to continue to compensate for its limited ground maneuvering capabilities with artillery and missile strikes.
“Russia's stated focus on the offensive in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions has probably been a tacit acknowledgment that it is trying to support more than one significant offensive,” the statement said.
