Russia transfers a large number of troops to the territory of the occupied Crimea. In the future, they are planned to be used in the south of our country to conduct hostilities against the armed forces of Ukraine.
Vadym Skibitsky, a representative of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defence of Ukrainee, told about this in an interview with The Guardian.
According to Skibitsky, two weeks ago, Russia withdrew tactical groups of airborne troops from the Donetsk region and transferred them to occupied Kherson. Russia is also redeploying troops from its eastern military district that were used in the attack on Slovyansk.
If Russia won the battles in southern and eastern Ukraine, it would pursue new offensives to capture more Ukrainian territory using units it was currently forming in Russia. They are currently creating rifle battalions of reservists in each Russian military district and a third army corps in Russiaâs western military district.
