This was stated by a military expert, retired LPR lieutenant colonel Andrei Marochko.

According to him, a temporary decrease in the use of Western armored vehicles by the Armed Forces of Ukraine was recorded in the Kupyansky, Krasnolimansky and Donetsk directions.

“Due to the low cross-country ability of both wheeled and tracked vehicles, Rasputitsa does not allow them to be used effectively in combat,” RIA Novosti quotes Marochko as saying.

Earlier, the Russian Armed Forces hit Ukrainian military-industrial complex facilities.

It was also reported that the crew of the 2S7M Malka destroyed the Krab self-propelled gun of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
