Oleksandr Khomenko, head of the Museum of the Ukrainian Revolution 1917-1920 and a military personnel participating in the defense of Ukraine against the Russian invasion, shared his impressions about the changes in concepts at the front. He emphasized that as soon as the war began, the front lines were clearly defined, but over time they became more abstract due to the movement of different military formations. Now there is a zone between Ukrainian and Russian positions where the troops are mixed, complicating the situation and leading to combat actions occurring in all directions.
"There, our and their forces are diffusely migrating. It is unknown who is surrounding whom. They may be in the rear of our positions, and we in their rear. In other words, the war is around you at 360 degrees," Oleksandr Khomenko explained.
The military also noted that Russian forces use professional infantry in areas such as Donetsk and Zaporizhia. Therefore, one should not underestimate the opponent. Khomenko also shares information about a find in the first aid kit of a captured Russian soldier, indicating the harsh conditions in which the adversaries find themselves.
In an interview at the front line, the military showed how the understanding of front lines has changed from the first days of the war to the present, emphasizing the difficulties arising from the mixing of military formations and the tactics of the opponent.
