While Americans, Germans, or British decide whether to allow Ukraine to target the logistics centers and team centers in the Russian Federation with Western weapons, experts say that the number of shelling outside the front line has increased. Recently, the Russian military said they have shot down almost 60 Ukrainian drones over the Krasnodar region in southwestern Russia. Local Russian officials said the oil refinery was affected as a result of the attack.
The Ukrainian sources have specified, in addition to the company, the drones successfully flew to the military airfield in the region. "We are not talking about the tactical Mavic and FPV-pions, but those used to strike a long range of action on the enemy's operational and strategic objects," says Pavel Lakichuk, Head of the Security Programs of the Center for Globalism.
The Russian Novorossiysk was attacked The squadron! and the energy sites of the Russian Federation, even in the north, in the Leningrad region. " In particular, it is about the use of long-range drones-Kamikadze "February". They are launched by groups at a certain distance from each other. Drones go to the target and explode. The use of such tactics increases the chances of the success of the mission and the destruction of Russian infrastructure or military objects.
The expert notes when Ukrainian drones come to Tatarstan or Bashkirria - it speaks of the extended capabilities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. "While there is a discussion between Europeans, Americans and the Ukrainian side of the opportunity to give Ukraine to strike American or European weapons on objects in the Russian Federation, the Armed Forces of Ukraine already demonstrate the possibility of struck to great depth on their own, maritime and air drones, military and air drones. Objects.
Experts note that the production of drones is a priority for Ukraine. In particular, long -range ones. Since the beginning of the year, the President of Ukraine emphasized how important it is to work on this task. We hear about the operations of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, the Security Service of Ukraine, the forces of unmanned systems as a separate kind of troops within the Armed Forces of Ukraine should be created.
Group raids indicate that the production of drones is gaining momentum, and such raids can become massive and regular. And this means that the range, number and power of the lesion increases. "A complex that is engaged in the development, production, introduction of drones is being built.
The first six months we see a constant increase in capacity, but the main results will be in the third and fourth quarters of this year," the head of the Ukrainian Center for Security and Cooperation Sergey Kuzan enforces in the focus of focus. For Ukraine, military goals and those that fund the military-industrial complex are priority: military airfields, planes, enemy air defense. But also important objects by which the Russian army operates - oil depots, equipment for primary oil refining.
"This is also important from the economic side to deprive the Russians. These blows should continue and will be a certain objection or misunderstanding," the analyst specifies. Russia, which has been kissed by Ukrainian critical infrastructure and military sites since the beginning of a full -scale offensive, has also increased sighting strikes recently.
This situation is paid to the Times, noting that from the fall of 2023 Russia has the advantage on the battlefield, which allows it to start attacks on different parts of the front line with a length of more than a thousand kilometers to study and break Ukrainian defense. Recently, she opened a new front in the northeast of Ukraine, near Kharkiv, quickly capturing several settlements, forcing the Ukrainian army to relocate units from other hostages of combat.
And all the Russian Federation is exacerbated by attacks on critical infrastructure. According to the publication, Russia seeks to maximize the situation. Ukrainian experts are convinced that Russia is curing, in particular, by energy objects in order to intimidate the civilian population and push the Ukrainian authorities to negotiate. "Energy blows are an attempt to break our will to resist and intimidate today.
It is not for nothing The enemy is to sow panic under the fear of mobilization, cold winter blows, a breakthrough of defense and front. . However, in 2022, Ukraine did not even have the opportunity to respond to Russian attacks. Ukraine had no drone that we could hit the target up to 300 kilometers in depth. And 300 kilometers are an army depth, and this distance is located military sites.
"Now the Russian Federation continues to carry out its planned shelling, destroying Ukrainian civilian infrastructure. And they will continue to do so until they remain resources. The logic is very simple. It is the terror of the civilian population," adds the head of the Ukrainian Center for Security and Cooperation Sergey Kuzan. - They realized that rocket launchers will not break our defense capacity, and we will not achieve military goals. .
But the overall goal is to undermine the combat capability of the Armed Forces. "To undermine unity, to break our spirit. It is not empty words, there is a whole direction in the military in order to demoralize the enemy," the expert continues. "The Russians understand that if the army is unable to demoralize, then its task is to demoralize a society Pressure on its military-political leadership so that it will take the termination of the war. And terror is only successful when he can intimidate.
When we talk about strikes in the Russian Federation, we note that Ukraine uses exclusively domestic weapons. There are no permits, at the official or unofficial level, to apply Western samples of long -range specimens in the Armed Forces. "They help those who win.
When the Ukrainian military strikes military facilities in the depths of the Russian Federation, oil refineries and oil depots, and Russia cannot restrain it - this is the first argument that such blows can be applied," - says, "he said Head of Security Programs of the Center of Globalism "XXI Strategy".
He is convinced that the fear of escalation and red lines, which Western politicians and experts talk about all the time, are fake in the example of Ukrainian blows in the territory of Bashkiria. "The second argument for our partners to allow the use of their weapons to strike the territory of the Russian Federation: after blows in Kharkiv and region a new wave of offensive began. We must talk about the opportunity for Ukraine to accumulate weapons and beat preventively.
Instead, our partners bind hands . , - continues Lakichuk. Ukrainian experts generally say that the ban on the use of Western weapons in the Russian Federation is meaningless. Especially at a time when the border is a cluster of troops. And only drones, even long -range, Ukraine is not enough to strike on these troops. And we could strike on them, Kuzan says.
