The enemy is in a hurry to develop offensive operations — Malomuzh.
According to Mykola Malomuzh, the Russian occupation army plans to develop offensive operations before winter. The general noted that the enemy is in a hurry, trying to occupy certain tactical positions before the onset of winter. In particular, in the Pokrovsk direction, the enemy is suffering large losses. However, the Defense Forces of Ukraine are able to neutralize the tactical successes of the enemy, and fortifications are being created, which complicate the advancement of the Russian army.
Malomuzh noted that in the fall, the Russian enemy will practically have no opportunity to conduct major strategic and tactical offensive operations since large reserves have already been exhausted. Thousands of troops have been redeployed to the Kursk direction. Although Putin is trying to "liberate" territories, Ukrainian military forces are firmly holding the defense or neutralizing these reserves. Therefore, it will be very difficult to massively direct new forces to the Pokrovsk direction.
According to the general, daily losses of the Russian army across the entire front line exceed a thousand people, and the enemy does not have new trained troops with combat experience. Russian military personnel who are experienced are located in separate points of the front and are trying to break through into the cities of Toretsk and Selidove in the Donetsk region. However, the general emphasized that there will be no massive offensive operations before winter, but individual sectors will vitally attempt to break through. It is also important to note that large enemy reserves are being depleted.
