The Russian military command is trying to create the illusion of a massive offensive in eastern Ukraine in order to force the Ukrainian army to transfer part of the units from the south. Now he is not succeeding and the Armed Forces of Ukraine are getting closer and closer to the counteroffensive in the Kherson direction. This was stated by military expert Oleg Zhdanov on the air of the news telethon.

According to him, now a “big tactical game” is taking place between the general staffs of the Russian Federation and Ukraine, and while our military is winning it. According to Zhdanov, if Russia cannot move our units to the east and launch an offensive in the south next week, then the Armed Forces of Ukraine will go on a counteroffensive..

“There is a game of two general staffs. We are trying for the first time to impose our war on Russia. And little by little it succeeds. We forced the Russians, with a complete lack of reserves, to make the largest regrouping of troops since the retreat from Kyiv. They carried out the flow of troops to the south of Ukraine. The Russian General Staff began to simulate a massive offensive in the east in order to force our units to be redeployed there. While we are beating them, and if they do not start advancing in the Kherson and Krivoy Rog directions by the end of the week, we will begin to systematically destroy them in the south, ”Zhdanov said..

The expert noted that an important aspect in the potential counter-offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Kherson region is the tactics of depriving the occupiers of the opportunity to quickly retreat and throw new units and weapons across the Dnieper. In particular, we are talking about accurate missile strikes on the Antonovsky and Darevsky bridges..

Why the aggressor failed the first stage of the invasion and failed to succeed in the second?

What tasks should our army solve at the third stage in order to oust the Russians from Ukraine? What are the consequences of a truce to which Putin will persuade Ukraine? The answers to these questions and the forecast for the coming months can be found in the article by Major General, Head of the Center for the Study and Counteraction of Hybrid Threats Sergey Savchenko “Expecting powerful fire training and counteroffensive? It will not happen. Everything has already begun"
