This was stated by Oleh Apostol, Commander of the Air Assault Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, during a meeting with journalists, according to an Ukrinform correspondent. Asked about the gradual seizure of Ukrainian territory by Russian forces, the commander stressed that the current situation should not be compared with periods of intensive offensive operations. "It has slowed down considerably... If the enemy captures one tree line in a month, that is hardly an operational success that could serve as a basis for further advances," Apostol said. According to him, one of the reasons for the slowdown is the enemy's significant losses, which affect the ability of Russian units to sustain the intensity of combat operations.
