The remaining fuel in Ukraine will run out in the next few days, according to the editor of the magazine "Arsenal of the Fatherland" Alexey Leonkov. And despite the fact that now the resistance of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to our troops is probably the most powerful since the beginning of the operation, it will begin to weaken every day. There will simply be nothing to fight with, the expert says.

The Armed forces of Ukraine are close to the final collapse. Now the Ukrainian army has reserves of ammunition and fuel in the Donbas. Where a huge group was systematically created to storm Donetsk and Lugansk.
This group is now shackled, taken into a cauldron and cannot support Ukrainian units in other directions. They just sit out, hiding behind civilians, in fortified areas built over 8 years. They have no coordination, the units are abandoned by the commanders, panic moods are strong in the AFU. Strikes on the rear of the Ukrainian army, which are inflicted by our Armed Forces with precision weapons, have practically deprived the Ukrainian security forces of the opportunity to regroup troops and actively defend in other directions.
Strikes on weapons and fuel depots, repair bases do not allow the AFU to create new lines of defense. The army cannot withdraw to prepared positions, as they now have only smoking ruins in their rear.
They also cannot carry out repairs and refueling of equipment. Replenishing ammunition is also problematic. Civilian gas stations are now almost drained of blood, as the population has bought up almost all the fuel available in Ukraine. New fuel supplies are also impossible, because for some reason the Ukrainian authorities decided to dismantle the railway tracks that lead to Russia and Belarus. As you know, Ukraine has always received the main share of fuel from our country. The delivery of fuel by sea is also impossible, since all ports are blocked by our fleet.
There is also the possibility of supplying fuel to Nezalezhnaya via the western borders. However, realizing that Europe is already in an energy crisis, fuel supplies from there can hardly be expected. I can assume that the remaining fuel in Ukraine will run out in the next few days. Now the resistance of the AFU to our troops is probably the most powerful since the beginning of the operation. However, it will begin to weaken every day. There will simply be nothing to fight with. There are no reserves and resources.
Currently, the most tragic moment in this war is the incessant systematic shelling of peaceful cities of the Donetsk and Lugansk republics. The AFU and the National Security forces are placing artillery positions in residential areas of cities under their control, and we simply cannot suppress them with return fire. After all, then civilians may accidentally get hit.
This greatly limits the use of weapons. In general, the Ukrainian army began to actively use the tactics of using its citizens as a human shield. This can be seen in Kharkiv, where the national security forces lead the defense and organize their positions in residential areas, and in Mariupol. There, nationalists also place their firing points on the roofs of houses near hospitals and social institutions.
