The Russian military is using a large number of mines to impede the advance of the Ukrainian Defense Forces.
Russia has refined tactics to slow the Ukrainian Defense Forces’ armored counteroffensive in the south. It’s about the 4th of July reported UK Ministry of Defense on Twitter.
British intelligence analysts noted that Russian troops were actively using anti-tank mines as part of their tactics. Moreover, in some areas, the density of minefields indicates that the invaders used more mines than provided for by the military doctrine of the Russian Federation.
After slowing down the Ukrainian Defense Forces offensive, Russia tried to strike Ukrainian armored vehicles with drones, combat helicopters and artillery, British intelligence added.
While Russia had some success with this strategy in the early stages of the Ukrainian counteroffensive, its forces continued to suffer from major weaknesses, notably unit overload and a shortage of artillery ammunition.
Recall that recently the Western media published materials citing anonymous officials who say that the Ukrainian counter-offensive “started slowly.”
Armed Forces Commander-in-Chief Valeriy Zaluzhny said he was annoyed by outside comments that Ukraine’s counteroffensive was slower than expected. He emphasized that the soldiers are paying in blood for the de-occupation of every meter of Ukrainian land. In order for the Ukrainian counter-offensive to act faster, the Armed Forces of Ukraine need more weapons, the commander-in-chief said.
