【Russian Forces Prepare for a "Final Operation" in Red Army City】

Ukrainian Chief of General Staff Syrskyi revealed that Russia is conducting a "final operation" in Red Army City, and the situation in the area is highly tense. Russian forces have concentrated a large number of troops and are trying to break through Ukraine's defenses in key offensives.

According to Syrskyi, Russia has deployed 150,000 troops to the Red Army City area, including a strong mechanized force and four marine infantry brigades. The Russian military strategy involves encircling the entire Red Army City region from the north, south, and east, then blocking all supply lines, forcing civilians to evacuate, and launching a "final operation" against the defending Ukrainian forces to take over the entire Red Army City area.

Syrskyi also denied Russia's claims of encircling the entire Red Army City, stating that it is entirely part of the propaganda war. He said that the Ukrainian forces are firmly in control of the situation in Red Army City. For two months, the Russian forces have launched an active offensive without achieving substantial success. Now, the main task of the Ukrainian forces is to cause as much damage as possible to the Russian forces attacking the city.

Syrskyi's statements differ from those of Ukrainian soldiers on the ground. Previously, CNN reported that Russian forces outnumber the defending Ukrainian forces by several times. As the Russians continue to tighten the siege, the Ukrainian soldiers believe that continuing to hold out is no longer meaningful. They are worried that the Ukrainian leadership may persist in holding out for political reasons, causing the Ukrainian forces to miss the best opportunity to withdraw, thus facing the fate of Bakhmut.

However, given the current situation, as the Ukrainian forces continue to hold out, it is expected that the Russian forces will launch even more intense offensives to completely capture the city.
