Defense Forces: Counteroffensive in South slowed down by heavy mining and lack of aircraft
In Tauride sector, enemy is clinging to every meter, and counteroffensive is complicated by lack of aviation and dense mining.
This was reported by the deputy commander of the Tavria group, Serhiy Kuzmin, on the air of the Radio Liberty project "Lyberty Live", informs Censor.NЕТ.
"There are very dense mined areas, this is one of the factors. There are also a lot of rashist units in this area, they are clinging to every meter, trying to hold on, but they are failing. Again, we do not have enough aviation to be able to move faster, but we do not have enough aircraft. We don't have enough air defense systems, and the artillery shelling by the Russian-backed militants has increased in these areas. This also affects the movement and speed of advance," he said.
Kuzmin clarified that mainly Russian motorized rifle units are deployed in this direction, with Z assault units on the first line, as well as "a lot of marine units."
