As stated in a report by the British Ministry of Defense , published on May 20, as soon as Russia captures Mariupol, it will transfer its forces to strengthen operations in the Donbass. The staunch Ukrainian resistance in Mariupol since the start of the war means Russian forces in the area must be re-equipped and modernized before they can be effectively redeployed. This can be a lengthy process if done carefully. It is noted that the Russian command is under pressure from the need to visually achieve operational goals. This means that Russia is likely to quickly redeploy its forces without proper training, which is fraught with further attrition," British intelligence said. --- The version of the TG channel of the Social Portal in English is open.Russian version of Socportal TG channel. https://t.me/Socportal_in_English
