Map of Ukraine's counter -offensive: a triple blow of the Armed Forces is surprised by the occupiers by surprise - El Mundo
The Spanish edition of El Mundo has published a map that, according to journalists, can unfold the counter -offensive of the Ukrainian forces. The authors of the publication point out that since on August 1 last year the battle for Bakhmut began, what was previously considered the second army in the world, was still unable to take control of the city with a population of 70 thousand. And perhaps the offensive attempts ended with a general failure.
If it were a chess party, journalists say, now the course would be behind Ukraine. It is reported that the logistics activity of the Armed Forces has gained a course, drainage maneuvers are conducted. Intelligence on the forefront tests the defense of the Russian Federation throughout the Zaporozhye region. Russian supply is undergoing distant blows, especially in Tokmak, where a significant concentration of Russian forces.
"Swarm swarms are launched in warehouses with fuel, ammunition and railway junctions, sometimes at a decent distance from the front line," journalists say. "All this is part of preparation for large-scale corruption. " From the liberated part of the Kherson region, Ukrainian artillery strikes Russian positions on the left bank of the Dnieper. For their part, Ukrainian commandos carry out daily landing on the occupied shore.
At the same time, the occupying administration is evacuating in a number of cities such as Nova Kakhovka or Gola Pier. The same was observed before the departure of Russian troops from the western part of the Kherson region last fall. The Russians have prepared deeply echelorated defense in the most obvious areas of Ukraine's counter -offensive. There are about three borders in Zaporozhye for 25-30 km. These defensive lines are formed not how much to stop the offensive, how much to slow down.
"The more time for Ukrainians to break through the fields, the more vulnerable they will be before the Artillery of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and lancet drones," the journalists of the second most of Spain say. According to the authors of the publication, the Zaporizhzhia region is the most obvious place to cut the land corridor under the control of the Russian Federation. But these are plain areas where any activity is viewed several kilometers.
The first of the possible directions for the Defense Forces of Ukraine - from Zaporozhye to Melitopol. It is the shortest line between the territory controlled by Ukraine and the Azov Sea (about 130 kilometers), but it is also an area with the highest density of defense. The second direction is through the Dnieper from Kherson or New Kakhovka to Crimea. The distance is 70 kilometers, but you will need to overcome the powerful Dnieper.
And forcing rivers is one of the most complex maneuvers for any army. The third is the possible direction of counterattack - from carbon to Mariupol. This path is longer than others, but less noticeable. Analysts say that this time the Armed Forces will not be able to surprise the Russians. However, a trump card can be a simultaneous offensive - in two or even three directions.
