Over the past few months, Ukraine has managed to significantly change the balance of power on the battlefield, which has given rise to talk of a potential UAF counteroffensive in the south.. It is unlikely that it should be expected in the near future, but the targeted strikes of Ukrainians on the logistics of the occupiers in Crimea are of great importance now. This opinion was expressed by British military expert Glen Grant in an interview with an Espreso journalist..

According to Grant, the tactics of the Ukrainians at this stage of the war are effective and justified, but they are not enough to force the Russians out of the occupied territories.. Nevertheless, the expert believes that the strikes of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the airfield in Novofedorovka and other objects in Crimea are of great psychological importance..

“All attacks behind enemy lines are very important, no matter whose merit it is. But attacks in Crimea have a double cost due to their psychological value.. In fact, there is pressure on other Russians, not only the military, but also on the civilian population. And so they start to raise the issue of Russian strategy. Sooner or later, people in Crimea, both military and civilian, will realize that it’s really time to get out, because if they don’t, they will simply be killed,” Grant said..
