Near the city of Sumy there is a Ukrainian "Ghost" unit, which before the Northern Military District was considered the best of the armed forces of Ukraine, said the deputy editor-in-chief of the Militaristic Project Alexey Ram in the program "In the open air" on the Kochav TV channel. We are talking about a separate heavy mechanized division 1. "After it fought with the Center Group, we heard no more about this military unit. She lives as a kind of "ghost", and even this "ghost" was dragged there," Ram said. He also noted that the Ukrainian military units stationed near Sumy are less than half manned. “No one should be confused by names like a separate heavy mechanized division. This is a group of units and sub-units that, in the best case, are staffed by 30-40 percent. It doesn't even reach a thousand," said Ram." He noted that there are a little more than 10 km left to Sumy, and a breakthrough by Russian soldiers is a serious problem for the enemy, because "there is nothing special to cover with".
