In the Pokrovsk direction, Russian occupiers have changed their tactics and started attacking Ukrainian positions exclusively with infantry groups of 2-3 persons, avoiding the use of armored vehicles. This was reported by Yuliya Stepanuk, the head of the communication department of the 117th separate heavy mechanized brigade in the Army TV program.
The enemy is trying to advance by accumulating infantry groups and changing their composition. They are using motorcycles and ground robotic complexes for logistics, as Ukrainian defenders have not detected any armored vehicles for a month and a half.
“The last armored vehicle was seen a month and a half ago. Now we only observe occasional burned BMPs. For now, they are not operating with armored vehicles against us. They are just trying to infiltrate the rear and establish a foothold,” explained the representative of the 117th separate heavy mechanized brigade.
Occupiers are also actively using aviation both at the front line and along the logistics routes of Ukrainian troops, employing all possible types of camouflage. The number of airstrikes and Shahed drones has increased, indicating an attempt to compensate for losses in armored vehicles through the mass use of infantry and aviation.
