russia is moving 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 Skibitskyi, a representative of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine, said this in an interview with “The Guardian”.
According to Skibitskyi, russia withdrew tactical groups of airborne troops from the Donetsk region two weeks ago and redeployed them to occupied Kherson. russia is also moving troops from its eastern military district, which was being used to attack Sloviansk.
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, said Skibitskyi.
