A wall of death is being built: 42,000 "dragon's teeth"; It's as brutal as "Surovikin's Line" VIDEO

Let's recall that after the meeting with the military leaders, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced that Ukrainian Prime Minister Denis Shmyhal reported on the "pace of construction of new defense lines" that will cover approximately 1,000 kilometers across three defense lines.

According to the Ukrainian president, strengthening the defensive positions of Kyiv "is a huge task, and the pace of construction is good for now."

"I count on an early end," added Zelensky.

Western media have previously reported that Ukraine is now focused on regrouping and replenishing forces after Russia scored a major victory by capturing Avdiivka last month and pushing the eastern front further into Ukrainian territory.

Britain's Ministry of Defense said in a new intelligence report on Sunday that Ukraine "almost certainly" accelerated the construction of its defense positions. "Measures include anti-tank 'dragon's teeth' and ditches, pedestrian trenches, minefields...", announced British intelligence.

"It is highly likely that the expansion of the defense lines will reduce Russia's ability to advance or exploit tactical gains as part of its ongoing offensive operations," the British ministry added.

Wall Street Journal wrote last week that Ukraine is strengthening its defense positions in anticipation of a Russian offensive in the spring, citing both Western and Ukrainian officials.

According to Ukrainian commander Maxim Zhorin, Kyiv troops are digging trenches and anti-tank ditches to repel Russian attacks.

The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense published on social networks a series of photos and videos of the construction of the "wall of death", which consists of anti-tank obstacles, underground bunkers, fortified trenches, concrete traps, "dragon's teeth"...

As it goes on, the defenses being built by the Ukrainians are reminiscent of Russia's brutal "Surovikin Line", a huge complex of fortifications and minefields built by former general Sergei Surovikin that stopped a major Ukrainian counter-offensive last year.

According to Western media, the Ukrainian defense consists of as many as 42,000 pieces of "dragon's teeth".
