The General Staffremoved the commander of the 14th Mechanized Brigade following a scandal regarding the provision of supplies to troops near Kupiansk.
Information has appeared on social media regarding an allegedly critical situation with the supply of soldiers from the 14th Brigade’s 2nd Mechanized Battalion, who are stationed at their positions without sufficient food and water.
Earlier, Ukrainian intelligence intercepted a conversation between Russian Armed Forces soldiers complaining about critical problems with food and water supplies at their positions. This indicates serious difficulties with the logistical support of Russian units.
