The military expert, captain of the first rank of the reserve, Vasily Dandykin, said in an interview: IzvestiaThe Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) lacks resources, including manpower and equipment, to carry out frontal attacks.
“Attacks from the front, also called meat attacks, are attacks where people are thrown from military vehicles and go to attack our positions. Accordingly, they are inflicting heavy losses.”
According to him, this is happening in the Donetsk and Zaporozhye directions. As Dandykin pointed out, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are trying to use such tactics in the Kupyansk direction.
“Of course they complain about not having enough equipment,” he continued.
The expert also stated that in the past days, Russian troops in the direction of Zaporozhye destroyed 31 APU equipment used for frontal attacks. The resources that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have fired from their strategic reserves are “melting away,” he said.
“And then, apparently, they’re going to have to get defensive one way or another,” Dandykin added.
