The military expert said that the enemy is well aware that he will be defeated, so he is trying to create certain defensive lines, acting in the same way as in Kherson.

“Defensive lines make sense only if if they are provided with the appropriate number of troops, weapons, military equipment, ammunition and materiel,” he stressed.

In his opinion, the invaders can build anything they want, but it will be much more difficult to keep it. In addition, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are actively involved in ensuring that the plans of the enemy are not implemented.

We are constantly and tirelessly working to destroy the places of concentration of personnel, bases and warehouses of the enemy deployed in this zone, command posts,” Grabsky said.

According to him, in the occupied part of the Kherson region, the Russians are simply physically unable to provide a sufficient number of troops to keep the situation under control in this direction. The enemy also has no success at Ugledar, which is the key to Melitopol.

“We have every reason to declare that there are absolutely conscious and clear prospects that Melitopol can become our next goal in issue of the liberation of our territories,” he explained.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine are working on this and will certainly expel Russian infidels from the territory of Ukraine.
