📖 🇺🇦 🇷🇺 The Russians simply walked in, Ukrainian troops in Kharkiv tell BBC

🔶️ Denys Yaroslavskyi is angry. As the Commander of a Ukrainian Special Reconnaissance Unit, he fought in Ukraine’s surprise offensive in Kharkiv in the autumn of 2022, which pushed back an initial Russian invasion all the way back to the border.

🔶️ “There was no first line of defence. We saw it. The Russians just walked in. They just walked in, without any mined fields” he says.

🔶️ He says officials had claimed that defences were being built at huge cost, but in his view, those defences simply weren’t there. “Either it was an act of negligence, or corruption. It wasn’t a failure. It was a betrayal”.

🔶️ Denys says he believes Russian forces will try to focus on the East and to capture the entire Donbas. But he says Russia is also trying to exploit Ukrainian weaknesses right across the 1,000km front. In Kharkiv they’ve found one.

🇷🇺 🇺🇦 Kharkov direction - the new tactics of the Russian Army. | Lord Bebo

🔶️ Near Kharkov due to the low saturation of the front line with Ukranian infantry Russia is able to use a new tactic.

🔶️ In small infantry groups Russian units are surrounding Ukranian position to force surrender without a fight.

🔶️ This is reason for the rapid advance and the large number of Ukranian prisoners.

🔶️ At the same time, the AFU notes the good interaction of Russian army units on the battlefield. This makes it possible to carry out offensive operations to a sufficiently large depth without stopping for a break and clarifying the situation.

🔶️ In the Donbass, where the Ukranian battle formation is dense, and there are virtually no free zones through which you can pass without encountering serious resistance, Russia has to literally flatten the fortified areas and individual strongholds of the AFU with aviation and artillery. Hence the low speed of progress, big amount of Ukranian casualties and much destruction of the cities.

🔶️ Video: Russian units walk towards an Ukranian position, calmly since there are in defended zones. Ukranian drone operators are not sure what to do. “That’s our defense” one says.
