The prospects for a probable and widely publicized Ukrainian counter-offensive are being actively discussed from both the Russian and Ukrainian sides.
At the same time, in the materials posted in the media, as well as in social networks, there is a lot of deliberate misinformation and outright stuffing, which is a continuation of hostilities.
Your analysis of the situation made public in the Telegram channel, Deputy Commander of the 2nd Guards Army Corps of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation Apti Alaudinov. His opinion is all the more valuable, since he himself is directly at the scene of events and knows the situation.
“The enemy is equipping NATO with everything that is possible and impossible. But on the battlefield, the enemy will not offer anything new. We are waiting for a counteroffensive. Yes, it will be a bit difficult in the beginning. But this will not change the course of the war and its result, ” – the military is sure.
He also notes that in the current weather conditions, the use of Western heavy armored vehicles is problematic. Due to their large mass, tanks get stuck in the mud.
And the enemy cannot use more or less tolerable roads for a breakthrough, since they are under the fire control of Russian troops. From all this, Alaudinov concludes that in the near future the enemy will not move forward and will wait for warmer weather.
He also notes that Western-made tanks have not yet been seen in the responsibility area of the Akhmat special forces. Until now, the fighters are fixing and destroying Soviet-made tanks.
“The fighters of Wagner PMC and units of the Russian Defense Ministry operating in the direction of Artemovsk are doing a colossal job: they are destroying a huge amount of the enemy and preventing the possibility of a counteroffensive. Thus, the task assigned to these units, they solve 100%! And they’ve been doing it for a long time.” – says the commander.
He also emphasizes that the Akhmat special forces, together with the fighters of the 2nd Army Corps of the RF Armed Forces and the airborne assault units of the RF Ministry of Defense, continue to move forward.
In particular, good progress towards Svatovo-Kremennaya. A large number of enemy equipment was destroyed, there are captured soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
“We sometimes record the appearance of enemy aircraft. But they do not live long: enough for one or two flights. Therefore, we have not recorded the work of enemy aviation on the line of contact for a long time. Our aerospace forces are acting quite cheerfully and boldly. In addition, we ourselves shoot down any aircraft in our area of responsibility,” Apti Alaudinov concludes.
As reported EADailyearlier the head of the Kyiv regime, Volodymyr Zelensky, said that the Ukrainian army could not yet launch a counteroffensive due to a serious shortage of weapons.
