The intensity of fighting in eastern Ukraine is an attempt by Russian forces to implement the Russian president's task of capturing the eastern regions of Ukraine.
Andrii Yusov, a representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry, said this on Ukrainian TV, Ukrinform reports, citing ArmyInform.
"In February-March, we expect very active events. Putin's task is to capture Donbas by March. Nothing will work. These dates have already been postponed many times. The intensity we are currently observing in Donbas is an attempt to implement these plans. Not counting losses in military personnel and equipment, the enemy is trying to fulfill the task of the dictator. Therefore, yes, there will be active events in the near future," he said.
He also added that "the Ukrainian defense forces are not just waiting and doing nothing."
