Quote by Motuzianyk: "The main focus of the Russians is to prepare for the resumption of offensive operations to surround the Ukrainian army and seize the city of Kharkiv.
The invaders are reinforcing their groups from the western and southern military districts in the Slobozhanskyi and Donetsk operational districts. They are doing this both by sending troops from other military districts and by involving mobilisation reserve units.
The Russian army is also establishing routes for troop logistics, creating stocks of ammunition, missiles and fuel, and preparing medical facilities to receive a large number of wounded soldiers. "
