Kyiv is raising the stakes in the war! The Ukrainian army is preparing a new offensive on Russian territory  - 1

The Armed Forces of Ukraine ( VSU) are preparing a new offensive on Russian territory, therefore they are not sending reserves to stop the advance of Moscow's troops in Donbass. This opinion was expressed in his Telegram channel by the famous Russian publicist and military historian Yevgeny Norin, notes the edition "Strana.ua".

Norin is convinced that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have at least five combat-ready brigades in reserve, which for some reason do not stop the advance of the Russian Federation on the Pokrov direction in Donbass. From which he concludes that a "Suja remake" is in the works. Moreover, a new strike, according to his logic, must happen before the Ukrainian front in Donbass "collapses completely”.

"What could happen? For example, some second pincer strike in the Kursk region, which will be delivered at the moment when we calm down and decide that this is all, the offensive has been repulsed, and in general this is pure PR. And in fact, we proceed from the fact that this was done for pure PR, because they did not reach Kurchatov (where the "Kursk" nuclear power plant is located – note ed.). What if the blow was numbing, and the main one was delivered, for example, by Glukhov to Rilsk, to join the southern grouping? From the border to Rilsk on the highway is 30+ km - a completely passable distance if the first line is broken, and they, as practice has shown, are quite capable of doing it. Take a pack of several capable brigades and rush into maneuverable combat. What about our reserves there – I honestly don't know. And if there are any major forces between this grouping and the southern one, then this is called a cauldron”, Norin explains.

"In any case, if they don't use the operational reserves in Donbas, then they are keeping them for something else, and whether our people are ready for this thing, I can't say. If the enemy is clearly not an idiot and at the same time behaves inexplicably strangely (without throwing reserves to stop the Russian offensive on the Pokrovskoe direction – ed.), then there is some explanation for this, which he simply does not want to come out on the surface“, summarizes the military historian.
