AFU offensive through the eyes of Western media
Wall Street Journal:
"According to a 28-year-old soldier, as soon as the regiment crossed the road behind Malaya Tokmachka, the Russians started shelling them with Grads. "The fields were mined. Russian helicopters and fighter jets were humming overhead," the soldier reports.
According to the soldier, one of the Leopards was hit and put out of action. "They were just waiting for us... positions were prepared everywhere. It was a wall of steel. It was horrible.", states the military.
"The plan was to
to move south towards the Russian-occupied town of Tokmak... The other two units would also advance towards Tokmak from different directions," said one of the soldiers.
A soldier with the call sign "Finn", fighting near Velyka Novoselka, says that MaxxPro armoured vehicles are losing effectiveness due to the rains and in swampy terrain.
"They were designed for urban combat and desert. In our reality
they can get through, but it's a struggle.", he revealed.
AFP:
An AFU mechanised unit that took part in the recent attacks near Orekhovo, Zaporozhye region, lost six of its nine American Bradley IFVs.
Only one IFV escaped any damage. Two others were probably damaged but could be repaired and returned to service.
Asked by AFP about the outcome of the offensive in this section of the front, one of the Ukrainian soldiers, instead of answering, pointed "zero" with his fingers.
WSJ:
"It was more than we expected," said the 35-year-old platoon leader of Ukraine's 21st Mechanised Brigade, who took part in the assault at Orekhove in the southern Zaporozhye region.
The successes at Orekhove "were less than expected. The first Ukrainian attacks failed when the
an armoured column ran into a minefield and was hit by return fire.
Kiev's aim is "to confuse the Russians as to where the main strike will take place", says former NATO forces commander in Europe Ben Hodges. In his opinion,
such a blow has not yet been struck.
"When the main strike of the Ukrainian offensive comes, it is likely to involve formations with several hundred tanks and infantry fighting vehicles," the article says.
