Russian Troops Assault in the Oleksandrivsk Direction


Russian forces continue to attack in the Oleksandrivsk direction, using a familiar tactic - advancing with drones across the open steppe. This leads to serious losses among the attackers. The company sergeant of the fire support company of the 5th assault brigade, Yuriy Syrotiuk, spoke about the peculiarities of the battles in this area.



'Russians are trying to enter every cover. However, they face massive losses. Their attacks are carried out by small infantry groups, guided by drones to indicate the direction of movement.', - explained Syrotiuk.


The brigade holds defensive positions in this direction, where the enemy has been constantly attacking since the beginning of summer. The terrain is characterized by barren steppe, complicating the stealthy movement of enemy forces. Despite the large number of casualties among Russian assault groups, the command continues to send people for swift assaults.



Tactics and Risks


Syrotiuk noted that the main method of attack involves small groups of fighters sneaking through fields and trying to hit the rear of Ukrainian positions with the help of drones. Less frequently, the enemy uses vehicles. The enemy tries to get past the defense line, set their flag, and then perish.



'The Muscovite sends his fighters forward, seeing mass deaths among his comrades. This indicates a particular psychotype of Russians, who are willing to accept significant losses on the path to victory.', - noted the military.


Ukrainian defenders have the opportunity to destroy enemy groups still at the approaches thanks to the open terrain. However, Russian command continues to send their fighters for half-prepared attacks, despite significant losses. For Russian storm troops, this becomes a paradoxical situation where they have to move forward, seeing that none of them return alive.



The uprising of Russian troops in the Oleksandrivsk direction continues, although they suffer massive losses due to failures in tactics and strategy of attack. Despite this, enemy groups persistently continue to advance, leading to dramatic consequences.
