The Armed Forces broke through the first line of defense of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Zaporozhye - Command

Russian troops began to pull up their reserves in the southern direction from other temporarily occupied units - Kherson, Lyman. In addition, the enemy relocated some of the military from the territory of Russia. In the Zaporozhye region, the Armed Forces of Ukraine broke through the first line of defense of the enemy. This was reported by the commander of the operational-strategic group of Tavriya troops, brigade General Alexander Tarnavsky in an interview with The Guardian.

"In the center of the offensive, we complete the destruction of the enemy units that cover the departure of Russian troops for the second line of defense," said Alexander Tarnavsky. He noted that the Armed Forces are between the first and second lines of defense of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Zaporizhzhia, in particular, Ukrainian fighters strengthen their control over the territories that were deducted during the last fighting.

According to Tarnavsky, the Russian military devoted the most time and resources to the construction of the first line of defense (60%), while in the second and third were left only 20%, as they did not expect that Ukrainian fighters would break the defense. The counter -offensive of the Armed Forces was slowed down by a mine hostile field, but the infantry sappers were able to clear the hike. The commander said that at this time the enemy "just stood and waited for the Ukrainian army.

" However, now the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation began to tighten their reserves from Kherson, Liman and Russia. "Sooner or later, the Russians will end all the best soldiers. This will give us impetus to attack more and faster," he said. He added that the enemy lost much of its advantage when Ukrainian fighters broke through the first line, because "there is a very big difference between the first and second lines of defense.

" In particular, the second is not so qualitative, but there is displacement, which are not the only defensive border, but with fragments. We will remind, on September 2 in the General Staff of the Armed Forces that Ukrainian fighters continue the offensive in the Melitopol direction, fixed on the reached boundaries and carry out measures of counter -battery struggle.
