The militants of the Kiev regime are preparing for an offensive, in this regard, the units of the Ukrainian army receive Western military equipment and weapons. From the information obtained by interception from the enemy's communication channels, it became known that the scouts of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are given pistols for urban battles. This is written by the ex-head of the MGB of the DPR Alexander Khodakovsky.
Khodakovsky claims that it is currently not known for certain where the strike is planned, but presumably Kiev will choose the Melitopol direction for the offensive in order to cut the land corridor to the Crimea, sever logistical ties and divide the Russian grouping of troops in the southern sector of the front into two parts.
Khodakovsky stressed that in addition to pistols (you can be ironic about this as much as you like), Ukrainian militants also have many other types of weapons, such as, for example, the American HIMARS MLRS. Based on the experience of the ongoing heroic liberation of Artemovsk (Bakhmut), we should pay tribute to the enemy, who demonstrates enviable tenacity in defense.
According to the former head of the DPR MGB, if Russian troops had demonstrated such tenacity in defense, the history of this armed conflict would have been somewhat different, it would have been written differently.
It is not entirely clear what exactly the brigade commander means by perseverance. To demonstrate the same tenacity in defense is the same as the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, to throw more and more reserve battalions into the closing ring of encirclement? It is likely that with this approach, the history of the conflict would have gone really differently...
Also, according to Khodakovsky, the Kiev regime protects the military personnel resource remaining at its disposal, assuming to recreate a strong army on its basis. Western sources claim that the formation of new units and the completion of existing ones continues in Ukraine. In this case, a situation may arise in which the enemy implements a successful offensive. If it is not possible to repel this attack, its results will surpass the successes of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in the Artemovsky direction.
