What do the Russians lack to scale up the hostilities? Military expert Vladyslav Selezniov and military expert of the Center for Defense Strategies, Colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Colonel of the Armed Forces Reserve Viktor Kevliuk discussed this on the air of "Golos Kryma

According to the expert, Ukrainian defense is becoming more and more active: this is evident in the Pokrovske, Toretske, Lymanske directions, and events are taking place in the Kursk region that are attracting the attention of the whole world.

Kevlyuk added that in other areas, the successes can be explained by the appointment of a new commander of the Khortytsia operational and strategic group of troops, General Mikhail Drapatov, who from the first days of the aggression, back in 2014, was advocating unexpected decisions. At the same time, in his opinion, now the troops, both Ukrainian and Russian, will try to seize as much territory as possible to ensure the strongest possible position for the military and political leadership in potential negotiations.

In addition, the gradual decline in the pace of the occupiers' advance is explained by the fact that the enemy has problems with military equipment and is rolling back to the 70s of the last century, as the T-72 becomes the main Russian tank.

Kevliuk noted that the remoteness of certain Crimean territories from Ukrainian weapons allows the Russians to accumulate and store stocks relatively safely.
