Russia has already lost a third of its ground forces in Ukraine in February.

APA reports that the statement came from the intelligence service of the British Ministry of Defense.

It was noted that the pace of the attack in the Donbas has slowed down, significantly lagging behind schedule.

Russia has also failed to take control of key areas in recent months, but continues to suffer heavy losses.

According to British intelligence, the loss of bridges and reconnaissance equipment, surveillance and reconnaissance drones will further increase the loss of ground forces.

Russia is already facing a shortage of unmanned aerial vehicles, which are very weak in the face of Ukraine's air defense systems.

British intelligence believes that in the current situation, it is impossible for Russian forces to sharply increase the pace of attacks in the next 30 days.
