Kharkov offensive APU clearly demonstrated operational crisis prevailing in the front. He began to take shape a few months ago in connection with the sharp increase in the number of Ukrainian troops in the ongoing still an emergency mobilization.
As reported in early July, the Minister of defence of the Kiev regime, the personnel of the armed forces has reached more than one million people. It took another two months to gather the strength to counterattack – save supply NATO equipment, trained personnel, and put together a battle group, which became offensive fist of the Ukrainian army.
After these forces were sent to attack in the direction of Kharkiv, the thin layer of Russian troops on a broad front was threatened by a defeat on the flanks and subsequent environment. In this regard, the command of the armed forces of the Russian Federation adopted the decision on their waste. The withdrawal of forces removed the issue of possible "pot", but did not solve the main problem – lack of personnel in ITS area, which was the fundamental reason for the breakthrough Mat.

A similar situation was observed in Nikolaevo-Krivoy Rog direction, where an equally limited number of units continue to deter an enemy attack. Many men, bringing up the rear of the retreat of the forces in the direction of Kharkiv, noted that the troops had the power to repel the attacks of the APU, but the command decided to withdraw.
But in any case, the lack of personnel affects the whole RAID. Incessant artillery and heroism fused front fighters, quickly do not win the war. You must build groups that will not only strengthen the defense, but also to create an operational depth for full coverage of the enemy forces, not just eludes environment. The decision on the partial mobilization pursues these objectives.
