Enemy Does Not Have Sufficient Resources For Large-Scale Offensive - Intelligence

Russia does not have sufficient resources to launch another large-scale offensive by the February 24th anniversary of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

This was reported by the press service of the Defense Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine with reference to the statement of the representative of the Defense Intelligence, Andrii Cherniak, Ukrainian News Agency reports.

"While information is spreading about a large-scale Russian offensive planned for February 24, Ukrainian military intelligence reports that Russia has already launched a full-scale offensive on February 24 last year, which continues today," said a representative of Ukraine's military intelligence in a comment to the Kyiv Post.

Cherniak said that Russia is planning to intensify its efforts in eastern Ukraine in the coming weeks, and noted that it is currently trying to find weak points in Ukrainian defense.

"However, according to our information, the Russian command does not have sufficient resources for large-scale offensive actions. The main goal of the Russian troops remains to achieve at least some tactical success in the east of Ukraine," he added.

Cherniak also emphasized that Russia lacks high-precision weapons.

"Russia is facing a shortage of high-precision weapons and, despite this, it will continue to use missile terror against the civilian population in Ukraine. The Russians have already used more than 80% of the high-precision missiles. They are trying to resume their production, but so far they have not succeeded," the representative of the Defense Intelligence concluded.

As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, on February 10, Ukrainian military intelligence representative Andrii Yusov said that the Russian "missile blitzkrieg" had failed, but the occupiers still have a lot of outdated missile weapons.
