” We pay a terrible price”: Ukrainian general pointed out mistakes in the defense of Bakhmut. General Krivonos: Ukrainian Armed Forces suffer losses in Bakhmut, which was not prepared for defense at allThe Armed Forces of Ukraine suffer heavy losses in Bakhmut, since the city was not initially prepared for defense.
This was stated by the former deputy commander of the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, General Sergei Krivonos.“We are paying a terrible price for this city, and the point is that some made mistakes and did not prepare the city for the necessary defense. In Bakhmut, it was necessary to prepare not just approaches to the city, but to prepare the city itself for defense,” he said in an interview Channel five.
According to Krivonos, the Armed Forces of Ukraine had to leave Bakhmut back in February, and now the situation is getting worse, because they cannot “impose their own initiative.” The general also announced huge problems with the training of mobilized soldiers
