Offensive in Sumy region: can the Russians reach the regional center.

According to retired Lieutenant General Ihor Romanenko, the occupying army of the Russian Federation currently cannot reach the city of Sumy. The Russian Federation has concentrated about 50 thousand troops near the city, but this is not enough to break through to the defensive positions of Sumy. If the enemies manage to capture Yunakivka, they will be able to launch airstrikes, using aviation, drones, and artillery against the city.

"Russia lacks reserves on all fronts, so its command is transferring troops from one direction to another, which is more important and priority," emphasized Romanenko.

The President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky reported that Russian forces are accumulating in the Sumy direction of the area, where more than 50 thousand enemy troops are already concentrated.

Russia postpones the offensive on Kostiantynivka

Russia has temporarily suspended the planned offensive on Kostiantynivka due to failures in the region of Chasiv Yar and a shortage of reserves. The redistribution of troops indicates a revision of the plans of the Russian command and a possible shift in focus to northern Ukraine. Analysts believe that Russia does not have enough operational reserves to conduct offensives in several directions simultaneously. Oleh Hryhorov, head of the Sumy regional administration, reported that on the territory of Sumy region, under the control of Russia, there are four populated localities. The occupiers have intensified assault actions near Tykhe in Kharkiv region in order to improve their positions in this area. According to experts, Russia is seeking strategic alternatives for offensives in various regions due to limited resources and opposition from Ukrainian forces. Summary: According to Lieutenant General Ihor Romanenko, the Russian army cannot break through to the city of Sumy due to a lack of reserves. The temporary postponement of the offensive on Kostiantynivka indicates problems and revisions in the plans of the Russian command. Russia is seeking strategic alternatives for the offensive due to limited resources and the deterrence of allies.
