Details: Cavoli has added that the US has worked with the Ukrainian Armed Forces on a possible surprise attack.

Cavoli has also stated that Russia's ground forces are larger today than at the beginning of the full-scale war, despite the numerous losses in the war against Ukraine.

"The Russian ground force [has been] degenerated somewhat by this conflict, although it is bigger today than it was at the beginning of the conflict," Cavoli said.

According to Cavoli, in addition to ground forces, Russia has a number of other capabilities that it can use.

The Air Force "has lost very little; they've lost 80 planes," he said. "They have another 1,000 fighters and fighter bombers."

"So they still use all of that conventional power as well, and they mix them all together," Cavoli added. 

Background: General Christopher Cavoli is convinced that Ukraine will receive the promised equipment for a counter-offensive in time.
