"War of the Future": Tarnavsky explained why the counter -offensive did not give the desired results

This was reported by the commander of the operational-strategic group of Tavriya troops Alexander Tarnavsky in an interview with BBC Ukraine. "I will say that the enemy was preparing. And I repeat that it is one of the strongest armies of the world. His defense was made up not of one, but of several borders. The enemy built these defensive borders not in one month, but during the period when we were preparing for offensive actions.

Because intelligence works around the clock, "Tarnavsky said, according to his statement, the Russian army uses its advantages, including a high level of combat readiness, zoned by minefields, ready positions and an advantage in aviation. Tarnavsky also noted that in the occupied territories there were a very high density of minefields, the saturation of the enemy's combat orders, anti -tank means, radio electronic struggle and shock drones.

"And also - the inability to use us in full of armored equipment, which complicated our active advancement, and also affected the speed of offensive actions," he stressed. He added that work in the field of electronic wrestling has now increased, including the use of Kamikadze drone and increased surgery. According to the commander, the Ukrainian military learns from mistakes and draw conclusions from the work performed. "This is a war of the future.

At the same time, I say that we may have not overcome the depth, but we made the jerk that enables our further offensive actions," the brigade general added. We will remind that in 2023 Western media published articles, which analyzed Ukrainian offensive actions in the summer and in the fall of 2023. According to estimates, the Armed Forces have received minor success due to insufficient weapons, which were pledged to provide partners from the Anti -Putin Coalition.

In addition, it was not possible to establish support from the air. In particular, the fighter granting coalition was formed only in the second half of the summer, and the first squadron will be arrived, perhaps by the end of 2023-early 2024. At the same time, analysts note the promotion of defense forces on the Left Bank of Kherson region. There are several bridgeheads here, one of which is near the cribs, 15 km southwest of New Kakhovka.
