war against Moscow, the new head of Russias military project in Ukraine has said.Sinceannouncing a significant overhaul last month, the
Russian armed force recently stated it would carry out significant changes to its Armed Forces in between 2023-26
In his first public remarks given that his visit as Russias leading leader in Ukraine previously in January, General Valery Gerasimov stated
the reforms were driven by events that followed Russias Feb

hybrid warfare against our nation, he said

Fakty newspaper late Monday.Claiming that the Russian Armed Forces are now countered by virtually the entire collective West, Gerasimov
noted the reforms that his exceptional, Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, detailed last Tuesday.These consist of adding an army corps to
northern Russias republic of Karelia; reverting to the Soviet-era practice of having two military districts-- Moscow and Leningrad-- in
northwestern Russia; and putting 3 motorized rifle departments in southern Ukraines Kherson and Zaporizhzhia areas, which Moscow unlawfully
declared to have actually annexed last fall

said.Army Chief of Staff Gerasimov was put in charge of Russias forces in Ukraine on Jan
11, changing his predecessor who had supervised a project of drone and missile attacks on Ukrainian facilities and the withdrawal from the
southern city of Kherson.Russia has actually repeatedly validated its war on Ukraine by declaring it looks for to counter an existential
