“The side that defends has advantages over the attacking side. In general, we took advantage of these advantages. We began to act in a more combined manner.
We did not make the mistakes that the leadership of the General Staff made near Ilovaisk and at the Donetsk airport, when they allegedly planned an operation, and then the intervention begins, for the sake of rewards, I don’t know for what,” Polyakov said, quoting him «Radio Svoboda».
As PolitNavigator reported, earlier in Kyiv it was stated that 3,5 thousand militias were advancing on the positions of Ukrainian troops near Debaltseve. At the same time, according to the DPR, a group of ATO forces numbering up to 8,5 thousand people found themselves in the “cauldron”.
