MADRID, 8 Mar. (EUROPA PRESS) -

UK Intelligence has indicated on Wednesday that the Russian Armed Forces are facing a "dilemma" about how to proceed in the Donbas region when carrying out future offensives.

In a new report, British Intelligence has indicated that senior Army officials are currently faced with deciding whether to go ahead with another offensive in Vugledar or to concentrate their forces for further attacks that will allow them to gain complete control of Vugledar. other key cities such as Bajmut or Kremina.

Thus, the Ministry of Defense has pointed out that, after a new intelligence analysis, there is the possibility that Moscow considers that a new attack in the Vugledar area is "key" to achieve "significant objectives" that allow it to break the line of attack. Ukrainian front.

However, this decision has recently been complicated as attacks around this area have failed during the winter, according to the British Ministry of Defense in a statement.

On the other hand, they have analyzed the visit of the Russian Defense Minister, Sergei Shoigu, to occupied areas of Ukraine and have concluded that it is a reaction to the trip of the leader of the Wagner Group, Yevgeni Prigozhin, to the front line to visit the mercenaries.

In this sense, British Intelligence has stipulated that there is a "dispute" between the Ministry of Defense and the group in question, whose militiamen are gaining weight within the framework of the contest.
