Based on their impulse in eastern Ukraine, Russian forces have taken some other small city, according to army experts, taking some other step in their thrust to conquer the entire Donetsk region.
Battlefield maps from independent groups analyzing satellite images and combat footage show that the town, Velyka Novosilka, is now under Russian control, and the Kremlin claimed its capture on Sunday. Ukraine’s military acknowledged its withdrawal from most of the town but said that its troops maintained a foothold on the northern outskirts.
Although this gain is modest compared to Russia’s recent crisis of Ukrainian strongholds near Vuhledar and Kurakhove, it underscores the effectiveness of a tactic Moscow used to take city after city in the east from Ukraine: use its overwhelming merit to get personnel to attack tirelessly, gradually trapping Ukrainian forces in a plier movement and forcing them to retreat to the rodeo.
“From a tactical perspective, their technique is correct: they understood their capacities and their benefits and used them effectively,” said Major Ivan Sekach, press agent of the 110a Brigade of the Ukrainian Army, which defended the region, in an interview . “It would not be correct to affirm that the Russians do not know how to fight. “
Major Sekach said that Ukrainian troops had been fighting with a river at their back that greatly complicated operations, adding that for the past two weeks, ammunition and food had to be delivered by drones.
“Reinforcements of troops have to cross the river, which is a very complex operation,” he said, noting that Russia “of course aware of this. “
