A week of constant heavy shelling indicates that the Russian troops are now trying to strengthen in the northern Izyum direction.
The main direction of the Russian offensive remains Severodonetsko-Lysichanskoe. Also, the Russian troops are now trying to strengthen in the northern Izyum direction. Such intelligence data is reported on Monday, June 27, by the British Ministry of Defense in Twitter.
It is noted that Ukrainian forces continue to hold the defense in this area, effectively using the wooded area for defense.
According to British intelligence, in the coming weeks, the Russian campaign is likely to rely more and more on the echelons of reserve forces. They consist of several separate components that Russia has almost certainly already begun to deploy.
The Russian Combat Army Reserve is a recent innovation consisting of volunteer reservists who are deployed as entire units, usually dedicated to home front duties.
“The human mobilization resource is a significant reserve of all veterans who have served in the regular armed forces over the past five years. The Russian authorities are likely to use volunteers from this category to staff the third battalions in the regular brigades,” the report says.
Despite a persistent shortage of ready-to-deploy reservists for Ukraine, the Russian leadership is likely still unwilling to order a general mobilization, according to British intelligence.
Recall that the Kharkiv OVA reported that in the area of Izyum, the enemy does not leave attempts to attack in the direction of the Valley and Mazanovka.
