Ukrainian military scale back some operations on the frontline due to lack of foreign aid — Ukrainian commander General Tarnavskyi

The Ukrainian army is facing a shortage of artillery shells, so it is scaling back some military operations at the frontline.

Brigadier General Oleksandr Tarnavskyi, commander of the Tavria operational-strategic group of troops, told Reuters.

The volumes that we have today are not sufficient for us today, given our needs. So, we're redistributing it. We're replanning tasks that we had set for ourselves,

Tarnavskyi said.

According to Tarnavskyi, Ukrainian troops on the southeastern front have gone on the defensive in some areas but are trying to attack in others.

The Ukrainian commander emphasises that Ukraine is increasingly in need of defence equipment against the growing number of attacks by Russian attack drones.

It will be recalled that CNN, citing sources, claims that Western officials fear that the loss or further delay of US support will affect assistance from US allies.
