This situation is observed all along the front line in Ukraine.
The Russian occupiers would like to change the situation on the front and realize an operational breakthrough, but they do not have the resources to do so. The invaders can not pass the "kill zone" in which they are destroyed. This was said by military observer Denis Popovich on the air of the TV channel FREEDOM today, May 1.
To get to the front positions and conduct assaults, the Russians should pass the "kill zone2 of up to 20 km, the observer explained.
"The Russian occupiers would like to change the situation and make an operational breakthrough, but they can't do it. And so far it is not seen at the expense of what could make it possible for them. The speaker of the Southern Defense Forces Vladislav Voloshyn said that we are trying to prevent the accumulation of the enemy, that is, we destroy them in "kill-zones". This means that the enemy is trying to approach the line of contact in order to just go on the attack, to go into assaults, and we destroy them even before they approach. That is, just in order to pass and start an assault, it is necessary to overcome the "kill-zone", and it can stretch for a distance of 10-15 km, up to 20 km," Popovich noted.
This situation is observed along the entire front line, he specified.
"The enemy is acting in small infantry groups, trying to exert pressure, but these drone "kill-zones", which are in both sides of the line of contact, prevent this from being done," Popovich said.
In his opinion, the front is bogged down. If the occupants have any advancement, it is only in the tactical zone.
"Of strategic importance is the situation that affects the course of the war. For example, a major offensive was carried out, which changed the situation dramatically - one of the armies was forced to ask for peace, or it led in the future to a situation where one of the parties was defeated, which determined the end of the war. That's the strategic significance. And all these advances - there they took a landing plus or minus 100 meters, there they advanced 200 meters - this has no strategic significance. This is a tactical advance, which is given to the Russian army at the cost of huge losses," the speaker summarized.
