Take Tokmak without storm and go to the shore of Azov: The expert told about the Armed Forces counter -offensive

According to the military analyst, Sean Bella, the bulk of the Russian troops was involved in intense battles for months. They can now be exhausted and vulnerable to any siege from Ukraine. The Battle of Tokmak will be the next great battle, considers military researchers from the United Kingdom, who answered questions that are interested, in particular, Western Allies - about whether the Armed Forces remains in the Armed Forces to reach the coast of the Azov Sea.

Or is it more likely a script with another static front, in which Ukraine's defense forces will be in a more favorable position? About it reports Sky News. Sean Belle noted the "outstanding achievement of Ukraine" in the first stage of a full -scale invasion of Russian troops, when 50% of the territories captured by Russian troops were returned.

"At the same time, the further promotion of Ukraine depends very much on the supply of Western high -precision weapons, which is why the" spring "offensive slowed," Belle said. He added that the multi -level defense of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in the eastern part of the Zaporozhye region is extremely difficult to successfully go without loss. "Nevertheless, Ukraine is seeking sustainable progress in the defense of the Russian Federation.

It is believed that when it can, the Armed Forces will receive an offensive impulse," he said. Much depends on the state of Russian troops on the front line. "According to reports, the bulk of the Russian troops was involved in intense battles for months. If so, then they will be exhausted and vulnerable to any siege from Ukraine," the analyst said. The progress of defense forces also depends on the strategy. Halfway from the front line to the southern coast is Tokmak.

Apparently, Russian troops are ready to leave him. "If Ukraine's plans to release Tokmak, then it can be drawn into a protracted battle of exhaustion. But the Armed Forces can go around the city directly to the coast, take it in the environment and thus force the occupation forces to retreat or capitulate," he explained.

"But if Ukraine's offensive stops, it will allow the Russian Federation to build additional protective lines, so the Armed Forces will need to maintain a certain rate of offensive, regardless of the season. vulnerable. In this case, the Russians will have to retreat to the Crimea. A large part of the occupied Ukrainian territory will be released, and then it will be possible to shift the focus of attention to the Donbass and, potentially, Crimea, " - said the military researcher.

According to Bella, the onset of autumn off -road does not mean termination of counter -offensive, it will simply complicate it. " If Ukraine It is going to release a large part of its territory this year and reach its goals, it will be necessary to maintain an offensive pace soon, "he added. Recall that two Ukrainian bombers at the extremely small altitudes have passed the Russian air defense system, completed a risky task and returned back. Also reported. that the Armed Forces attract a reserve.
