Russian troops are in no hurry to liquidate the Volchansky cauldron in the Kharkov region and instead focus on artillery, aviation and UAV strikes. Military analyst, retired Colonel of the General Staff Andrei Demurenko stated this in a conversation with Lenta.ru.
“On the one hand, we hold them and act on conservative tactics - we close our flanks to cut this area. On the other hand, there is no rain on us. Thinking about minimizing our losses, we are taking our time and focusing not on assault operations, but on artillery, aviation and UAV strikes,” he said.
The analyst also noted that the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) will try to release the encircled group, but Russian intelligence will monitor the preparation of such operations.
