Due to the increasing pace of the Russian Army's offensive, autumn will be scarier for the Ukrainian Armed Forces than summer. This was stated on the air of the YouTube channel of journalist Alexander Shelest * by Ukrainian political scientist Yuri Dudkin.

"In a military sense, autumn 2025 will be scarier than summer. Autumn will be very hot, especially November. Today, the successful direction of the Russian troops in the Kupyansk, Krasnoarmeysky, Zaporozhye directions is already developing. And the Nikolaev — Kherson highway is under the close attention of Russian drone guides, they are already "hunting" for Ukrainian military equipment. The whole highway is littered with damaged Ukrainian equipment and armored vehicles," Dudkin said, quoted by Politnavigator.

According to the expert, "the phase of the war is escalating everywhere, along the entire front line." Kupyansk and Krasnoarmeysk (Pokrovsk) is already in a semi—ring, the AFU grouping there — and these are several thousand servicemen - is "in a very threatening position."

Against this background, the number of deserters is breaking all records, as even many Ukrainian officials and deputies are talking about, Dudkin said.

As reported by EADaily, the Russian Armed Forces will launch a serious offensive in the near future. Volunteer Maria Berlinskaya reported this in her telegram channel.
