Russia is learning from its mistakes in the north of Ukraine – the US Department of Defense

Currently, the Russian army is trying not to repeat the failure in eastern Ukraine.

The United States believes that Russia is learning from its failures in northern Ukraine and applies these lessons to its new offensive in the east and south . A senior US State Department spokesman said, “What we've seen over the past few days is that they're still trying to create the necessary conditions,” the official told reporters. “We call it a formative operation.”

“It looks like they are trying to learn from the failed lessons in the north, where they did not have adequate support in the area they were going to capture,” the official said.

The official added that the United States had seen Russia transfer “heavy artillery”, “command and control equipment” and “aircraft, especially helicopters” to 11 new battalion tactical groups that had moved to the area over the past few days. .
