The situation on the Eastern Front has worsened significantly in recent days, the Russians are achieving "tactical success" in a number of directions, said the head of the Syrskyi.
"This is primarily due to the significant intensification of the enemy's offensive actions after the presidential elections in Russia," said the commander-in-chief.
"The enemy is actively attacking our positions in the Lyman and Bakhmut directions with assault groups supported by armored vehicles. In the Pokrovsky direction, he is trying to break through our defenses, using dozens of tanks and BMPs.
This is facilitated by the warm dry weather, which made most of the open areas of the area accessible to tanks," said Sirskyi.
According to him, "the adversary is increasing its efforts with the help of the use of new units on armored vehicles, thanks to which it periodically achieves tactical success."
