Russia deploys more reserves to Bakhmut direction - National Guard's UAV crew commander
Andriy Otchenash, the commander of the Kara Nebesna UAV crew of the Rubizh brigade within the National Guard of Ukraine, notes Russia has intensified its activities in the Bakhmut direction
He shared the information on Espreso TV.
"The enemy has intensified its activity in the Bakhmut direction. The enemy is beginning to work competently, conducting defense and reconnaissance, preparing for assault operations. We understand this and are preparing to stop any enemy assault actions with our defensive 'fist,'" noted Otchenash.
According to the serviceman, Russian troops are deploying more and more reserves to the Bakhmut direction, trying to break through the Ukrainian defense. "The enemy is doing this with extremely heavy losses, but powerfully. They are really advancing, but spending huge resources on it. The number of Russian soldiers dying on the battlefield without any motivation is surprising," Otchenash emphasized.
