“Why can’t it be said publicly that the Armed Forces left… or entered… the settlement before the General Staff announced it.
Because it harms the work of the Armed Forces. It takes them precious time – a day / two, which they could still implement their military plans and maneuvers in the face of the secrecy of the military operation, “- wrote Painter on his Facebook page.
She cited the example that several tasks are implemented in parallel with leaving or entering the city. And for their implementation it is important to do so in conditions of information silence.
“Everything that can be said at this moment, – say official sources: the General Staff and the Ministry of Defense (we are always coordinated for information).
The public demonstration of civilians’ awareness of the course of military operations and the announcement on social media of official statements by the General Staff partially disrupted military operations, as was the case yesterday and the day before yesterday in Severodonetsk. When they simply did not allow the Armed Forces to complete what was planned, “the deputy minister said.
