Quote: "The enemy attempted to launch a large-scale offensive but, in reality, failed to achieve any of its objectives despite having almost a twofold advantage in personnel and equipment. Whereas the Russian army had previously been conducting active offensive operations on 13 operational fronts, there are now no more than six or seven."
