Po masivním ruském útoku na energetickou infrastrukturu zůstala v pátek část Kyjeva bez proudu, nejezdily trolejbusy a tramvaje. Z Ukrajiny však v posledních dnech přicházejí ještě horší zprávy – o tom, že obrana na frontových liniích se rozpadá a ruský postup se po dlouhých měsících patové situace alespoň na některých úsecích znovu zrychluje.

iDNES reports that manpower shortages have led to a collapse of the Ukrainian front line. Wide gaps are forming between Ukrainian units, and on certain sections of the front, it has become impossible to maintain a continuous line of defense. As a result, Russian advances are breaking Ukrainian defenses.

Ukrainian commanders told the publication that the numerical superiority of Russian forces is becoming increasingly evident. They admitted that there are not enough soldiers, and drones are unable to fully monitor the battlefield, leaving many areas exposed.

Russian troops, the report continues, are taking advantage of these vulnerabilities, using fast off-road motorcycles to penetrate deep behind Ukrainian positions and bypass defensive lines. Such tactics allow Russian forces to approach Ukrainian artillery positions, often located 10 to 15 kilometers from the front.

According to Ukrainian officers, the situation on the front has reached a critical point, with a real risk of the defense collapsing. They also acknowledged that Russian reconnaissance units are systematically identifying and exploiting weaknesses in Ukraine’s defensive network.
