DIU spokesperson: russian troops are no longer capable of large-scale offensive actions

The representative of the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine, Andriy Yusov, said that russian troops do not have the resources for large-scale offensive actions, and they are mainly focused on defense. However, the kremlin is still able to maintain the current pace of missile attacks.

"They (the russians) have been preparing for defense all this time, and this is a serious factor that the Ukrainian command certainly takes into account when preparing for the de-occupation of Ukrainian territories," he said.

According to Yusov, the targets of russian missile strikes have changed, and their intensity has significantly decreased compared to the winter, when the russians launched powerful attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure.

According to Ukrainian authorities, the russian military also has a shortage of certain types of missiles, such as Kalibr.

"They are actively looking for ways to compensate and replace not only the Shakhtys. They are looking for weapons all over the world. So far, these attempts have not been very successful," said the DIU representative.

Despite this, according to Yusov, russian troops are able to maintain the intensity of attacks, as they still have large stocks of S-300 missiles that can cause significant damage.
