After taking full control of Mariupol, Russia is likely to deploy its forces to strengthen deals in the Donbass, analysts say the British Ministry of Defense.

Although about 1,700 Ukrainian troops have probably left the Azovstal Mariupol steel plant, an unknown number of Ukrainian defenders remain on the plant's premises..

British intelligence notes that persistent Ukrainian resistance in Mariupol since the start of the war indicates that Russian forces in the area need to be re-equipped and upgraded before they can be effectively redeployed..

This can be a lengthy process if done carefully.. However, Russian commanders are under pressure to defiantly achieve operational goals.. This means that Russia is likely to quickly redeploy its forces without proper training, fraught with further attrition,” analysts say..

It should be noted that the procedure for the evacuation of Ukrainian defenders from the territory of the Azovstal plant began on May 17. Now the process is still ongoing and its details are not publicly commented on.. So, on the first day, at least seven buses with Ukrainian defenders under the control of Russian invaders left the territory of the Azovstal plant in Mariupol. According to the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, on the morning of May 19, 1,730 Ukrainian military left Azovstal. For tribute from the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, on the morning of January 19, Azovstal was deprived of 1,730 Ukrainian military.

In Russia, information about the plans for the exchange of Ukrainian military caused a wave of indignation and calls for aggressive actions against Ukrainians.

However, Deputy Defense Minister Anna Malyar noted that Russian statements about Azovstal defenders should be taken as political and aimed at domestic Russian consumers..
