Prediction: You won't have to defend for long. Ukraine is depleting resources
Russia has taken defense issues seriously in new territories and is building powerful fortifications.
Russian military correspondent Alexander Kots stated this on the Komsomolskaya Pravda radio, PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“We have now begun to approach defense in a completely different way. I drove from Kherson to Lugansk, and in all breakthrough-dangerous directions, the construction of fortifications is now literally on an industrial scale, and I take off my hat to the civilian builders who, in the dangerous zone, are engaged in the construction of trenches, anti-tank ditches, anti-tank ramparts, and there they dig concrete into the ground Pillboxes, dugouts are lined with clapboard.
It’s not a soldier with a shovel who digs for himself, but professional builders who do it all. These “dragon teeth”, which run for a kilometer along the defense line in three rows, are concrete triangles so that tanks cannot drive through them. Civil builders, courageous ones, do all this. In fact, in the affected area of Ukrainian artillery,” the military correspondent said.
He hopes that these powerful fortifications will allow the Russian Armed Forces to defend themselves effectively up to a certain point, destroying enemy personnel.
“And at some point, it seems to me, Ukraine must reach that critical peak when it begins to experience a serious decline. A decline in ammunition, manpower, and morale...
That amount of ammunition - someone calculated that Ukrainian artillery fires more per day than the Americans do in Afghanistan in a month. This is a really huge number, thousands and thousands every day. This cannot continue for long, given that Ukraine does not have its own industrial capabilities for the production of ammunition,” Kots said.
