The Russian army, amid Ukraine's counterattack
in the Kharkiv region, showed low morale,

logistical problems, and an inability to conduct
military operations.

"Once again, Russia must answer the question
of why their forces reacted the way they did

in the Kharkov region.

The reports we saw in terms of low morale,
logistical problems, inability to conduct

operations» said a high-ranking Pentagon
official.

The armed forces of Ukraine «with great success»
took advantage of the opportunities that they

had on the battlefield and changed the dynamics
of the war.

Kiev put before Moscow «a lot of dilemmas
on the front line» and forced to decide where

it will move its forces - to the north or
south.

"This problem is very difficult to solve,"
the official said.

He explained that Russia had had difficulties
with supply, logistics, command and control

from the beginning of the war.

When retreating, Russian troops abandoned
equipment, which "may be evidence of disorganized

command" of the army.

The Pentagon noted that in the Kherson region
the U.S. sees "deliberate and carefully calibrated

Ukrainian operations, including some moderate
advance."

Kiev announced a counteroffensive in the south
on August 29 and pulled back some of the Russian

army group there, and on September 5 it struck
Russian positions in the Kharkov region, which

is the exact opposite side of Ukraine.

Russian troops in Ukraine now may be 6-7 times
fewer than Ukrainian troops, a possible difference

of 6-7 times in numbers.

Russia has sent a total of 200,000 to 250,000
troops to Ukraine.

The Pentagon has reported that 70,000 to 80,000
of them have been killed or wounded since

the invasion began.

Nearly two months have passed since then,
and casualties have increased significantly.

The front line stretches for 1,300 km, and
the Russian Federation has too few soldiers

to hold it.

The Ukrainian armed forces now number about
1 million people, and Putin is still afraid

to declare full mobilization.

After all, he will have to officially declare
war on the neighboring state, showing that

the lauded special operation has failed completely.
