Reuters: APU trenches turned into a swamp due to rain

The material says that the Ukrainian military is using buckets to clear flooded trenches.

Rain and low temperatures create difficult conditions, making it difficult to "maneuver and warm troops."

“Now it’s getting harder because of the rain and light frost.

There is a swamp here, ”the author of the fighter of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Peter quotes.

Earlier, an officer of the People's Militia of the Luhansk People's Republic, Andrei Marochko, said that weather conditions and a lack of forces make it difficult for the Armed Forces of Ukraine to evacuate the wounded in the Kupyansky and Krasnolimansky directions.

On November 22, an employee of the Brno Defense University, Zdenek Petrash, in an interview with iDNES, expressed the opinion that the Ukrainian Armed Forces "lost the initiative" on the battlefield due to the depletion of weapons.
