The speed of Russia's advances indicates the pressure Ukraine's armed forces find themselves under, as well as the impact shortages in vital supplies are having on Kyiv's ability to hold ground, agreed Nick Reynolds, a research fellow in land warfare with the London-based Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) think tank... Russia's actions west of Avdiivka, as well as further north around the strategic town of Chasiv Yar, show most clearly where Russia is making the most of its advantages over Ukrainian forces, including manpower, artillery and reserves of destructive glide bombs, Matthew Savill, military sciences director at RUSI, told Newsweek.
