PUTIN'S WAR: Escalation at the front! General loses command! Russia threatens breakthrough The commander of the Ukrainian Donetsk Army Group, Olexander Lutsenko, has been replaced after several serious defeats in Kiev, according to consistent media reports. He will be replaced by Olexander Tarnavskyj, reported the Internet portal "Ukrajinska Pravda" citing a source in the armed forces. The new appointment has not yet been officially announced. The crisis of the Ukrainian troops in the east of the country has worsened in recent weeks. Lutsenko was responsible for the front section around the strategically important cities of Pokrovsk and Kurakhove. Kurakhove has already been partially captured by Russian troops and is about to fall. However, the Ukrainian army has already held the city longer than many experts had previously predicted. However, the military leadership has received sharp criticism for the inadequate defense at Pokrovsk. There, it allowed Russian troops south of the city to break through what were actually well-developed and conveniently located defense lines. This now threatens not only the encirclement of Pokrovsk, but also a further advance of Russian troops towards the Dnipropetrovsk region. Tarnavskyj is one of the best-known generals in Ukraine. In 2022, he led Ukraine's successful counterattacks in the south of the country, which led to the recapture of Kherson. However, in the summer of 2023, he failed in his attempt to force a breakthrough in neighboring Zaporizhia and later in the defense of the Avdiivka fortress in the Donetsk region. #weltnetzreporter #russland #ukraine #war Subscribe to the WELT Netzreporter Channel / dienetzreporter WELT Nachrichtensender Channel / weltvideotv WELT DOKU Channel / weltdoku WELT Podcast Channel / weltpodcast The WELT news livestream http://bit.ly/2fwuMPg The top news on WELT.de http://bit.ly/2rQQD9Q The media library on WELT.de http://bit.ly/2Iydxv8 WELT Nachrichtensender on Instagram https://bit.ly/IGWELTTV WELT on Instagram http://bit.ly/2X1M7Hk On our own behalf: Due to the high volume of irrelevant and offensive posts, we are currently unable to allow any more comments.
