Building on their momentum in eastern Ukraine, Russian forces have seized control of yet another small town, military experts say, taking another step in their grinding push to conquer the entire Donetsk region.
Battlefield’s letters of independent teams that analyze satellite photographs and fight photographs show that the city, Passka Novosilka, is now Russian control, and the Kremlin claimed its capture on Sunday. Ukraine infantry soldiers identified their withdrawal from the maximum of the city, but said their troops had set foot on the outskirts of the north.
Although this gain is modest compared to Russia’s recent crisis of Ukrainian strongholds near Vuhledar and Kurakhove, it underscores the effectiveness of a tactic Moscow used to take city after city in the east from Ukraine: use its overwhelming merit to get personnel to attack tirelessly, gradually trapping Ukrainian forces in a plier movement and forcing them to retreat to the rodeo.
“From a tactical perspective, their technique is correct: they understood their functions and benefits and used them effectively,” said Major Ivan Sekach, a press officer of the 110th Brigade of the Ukrainian Army Brigade, who defended the region, in an interview “It would not be accurate to affirm that Russians do not know how to fight. “
Major Sekach said that Ukrainian troops had been fighting with a river at their back that greatly complicated operations, adding that for the past two weeks, ammunition and food had to be delivered by drones.
“The reinforcements of the troops have to cross the river, which is a very complex operation,” he said, pointing out that Russia “of course aware of this. “
