Russia shifts reserves from Lyman to Chasiv Yar to bolster offense – National Guard spokesman
Ruslan Muzychuk, spokesperson for the National Guard of Ukraine, revealed that Russian forces have moved units from the Lyman direction to escalate offensive maneuvers toward Chasiv Yar
He disclosed this information on Espreso.
"The situation around Chasiv Yar is fluid. Our Defense Forces are tirelessly working to maintain control of all areas and prevent flanking attacks on Chasiv Yar. We've noticed the enemy relocating reserves, forces, and assets in this direction to gain ground and push forward along the frontline. However, our Defense Forces hold a strategic advantage, especially with fortified positions and the geography of Chasiv Yar," Muzychuk stated.
Muzychuk also noted that the enemy will strive to secure some measure of victory at Chasiv Yar.
"We've observed a reduction in enemy assault activity in certain areas. The transfer of reserves from the Lyman direction to Chasiv Yar indicates its crucial significance for the enemy. They'll exert maximum effort to achieve even minor successes," he added.
