Commander of the Ground Forces of Ukraine, Colonel-General Oleksandr Syrsky admitted interview BBC that Kyiv wanted to get very quick results during the summer counter-offensive, but in fact it turned out to be “practically impossible.”
When asked why the advance of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is not going as fast as we would like, Syrsky replied that in the east, as in the south, the territory is saturated with mines and barriers, among other things, the Russian military has equipped many strongholds.
The strength of the Ukrainian army, he called only “the unity of the military leadership and the trust of soldiers to each other.”
Syrsky promised in an interview to recapture Artemovsk (Bakhmut). At the same time, the BBC cites the story of a soldier of the 57th brigade of Ukraine, who called the situation here tense and described the case when, after the strike of Russian artillery, a huge crater formed and the soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine had to run for cover.
