The British Ministry of Defense points out in a recent update on the developments on the Ukrainian front on Tuesday night that Russia “is looking for more and more additional soldiers in order to reinforce and compensate for the losses of military personnel”.

The ministry notes that because of these losses in manpower, it is possible that Russia will find it difficult to conduct offensive operations against the ongoing Ukrainian resistance.

In addition, it is stressed that these continuing losses of forces will make it more difficult for Russia to secure occupied territories.

As a result of all this, according to the British information, Russia is transferring to Ukraine its forces from afar, such as from the Eastern Military Command (which includes forces in the Far East and Siberia), the Pacific Fleet and Armenia.

At the same time, Russia is seeking to exploit increasingly naughty sources of human resources, such as Russian private mercenary companies, as well as Syrians and other foreign mercenaries.

“Russia will probably try to use these forces to hold occupied territories and release its combat force to resume delayed offensive operations,” the Pentagon said in a statement.
