The Estonian military commander called the causes of the long -term counter -offensive of the Armed Forces

According to the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Estonian Division, Jano Skom, there is a situation where the Ukrainian side knows exactly what the enemy is doing, and the Russians know exactly what the Armed Forces is doing. Russian troops made a lot of efforts to prevent the expansion of Ukrainian bridgeheads on the Dnieper or the transfer of additional forces there.

The losses of the Russian Federation there are also very large, said Colonel Yanno Mark in the transfer of Ukrainian Stuudio, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Estonian Division on Reliance. Mark noted that the front line in the last week has not changed significantly. The armed forces of the Russian Federation are still active in the Donetsk region in the area of ​​settlements Avdiivka and Marinka.

On the east bank of the Dnieper in the Kherson region, where Ukrainian troops began their operation more than a month ago, the Armed Forces managed to expand their bridgeheads. Yanno Mark believes that the war has become a phase of static positioning and war for exhaustion, the reasons for a long -lasting counter -offensive. "There are a number of factors why it happened.

One of them is, of course, the military assistance of the event that was enough to support Ukraine in the war, but not to achieve decisive success," the colonel said. The second factor, in his opinion, is the development of technologies, in particular, UAVs and reconnaissance. Now at the front is a situation where the Ukrainian side knows exactly what the enemy is doing, and the enemy knows exactly what the Armed Forces is doing.

"That is, it is very difficult to concentrate large units because the enemy sees it and opens fire from closed positions. That is, they act rather in small units, and this is part of the problem," he added. Colonel Yanno Mark believes that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation still have a very great advantage in weapons, equipment, rockets and ammunition, as well as in live power.
