As reported by “NBN” with reference to the material of “Espresso”, the reserve major of the National Guard of Ukraine Oleksiy Getman made a statement – between the two groups of the “second army of the world” deployed at Velyka Novosilka in the northeast and southwest, there remains a distance of 2 kilometers, which will allow the occupiers to close the encirclement ring.

Based on the words of Hetman, based on the above-described data, the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has already managed to draw certain conclusions – “the situation is threatening.” In particular, if the fighters of the Defense Forces need to retreat, then a combat order is ready – an order regarding the exit from Velyka Novosilka, and this, “is the most organizationally and tactically complex operation,” if we compare it with an offensive or defensive actions.

However, the ex-officer added that the information about the situation in the Velyka Novosyolka area is contradictory, however, “if there is an encirclement, then this is not very good, there is hope that this will not be allowed.”

Getman summarized:

It is impossible to plan an operation that will go 100 percent according to plan. Usually there are nuances due to which it is necessary to make operational decisions when conducting military operations. It is impossible to calculate everything, especially since the enemy is also preparing.
