More and more data show that the Ukrainian army has suffered heavy losses in Donbass, reports the British newspaper The Gurdian.
The publication notes that Russia has achieved significant success in Donbass. The tactics of the Russian military, which determined the course of the fighting, also put the Ukrainians in a “cruel dilemma” – to hold their ground against the background of rapidly growing losses, or to retreat.
There is growing evidence that “Ukraine has suffered heavy losses during the recent battles in the east, and there have been reports of equipment and supply problems,” the author said.
For his part, Michael Clark of the Royal United Services Institute said the Russian military’s actions seemed increasingly consistent and “strategically wise.”
