☆ Ukraine was right to abandon Western tactics and instead attack Russian defenses in small teams, analysts say

A leading think tank called on Ukraine's Western allies to show greater faith in its military decisions. "The Ukrainian forces have done what successful militaries do — they have adapted and are now advancing. AdvertisementAdvertisementHer argument echoes that of a US veteran on the ground, who spoke to Insider's Sinéad Baker between training Ukrainian forces. The New York Times reported at the time that they involved attacking Russian positions in large groups using complicated maneuvers. But other analysts were more skeptical that Ukraine's counteroffensive could yield a decisive result this year.

☆ Russia's defensive line is 'bending but not breaking' after Ukraine breached it, analyst says
  + stars: | 2023-09-25 | by ( Tom Porter | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
But a Finnish military analyst said that so far Russia's defenses had not been broken. The push from Ukraine is part of a gruelling attempt to defeat Russia's formidable "Surovikin line" of defences and disrupt its access to occupied Crimea. That was the case in late 2022 when Ukraine was able to recapture vast amounts of northeastern Ukraine after routing Russian forces around Kharkiv. AdvertisementAdvertisementThere is debate among military analysts about whether Russia would be able to mount a fightback if Ukraine does achieve a decisive breakthrough. However, he said that "incompetence is a big factor which can have significant effects, at least locally" referring to the missteps and miscalculations that have been a recurrent problem for Russia's military during the invasion.

☆ Photos show miles of Russia's infamous 'dragon's teeth' defenses that are holding up Ukrainian forces
  + stars: | 2023-09-04 | by ( Erin Snodgrass | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
New photos and video show Russia's fierce "dragon's teeth" anti-tank defenses along the front line. But the fearsome dragon's teeth often require skilled combat engineers to breach them, The Wall Street Journal reported last week. The United States sent Ukraine additional demolition munitions in June to help the country's combat engineers do battle against the dragon's teeth. New video from the Robotyne-Verbove area where fighting is ongoing also offers a look at the dragon's teeth defenses. The clip features the spiky dragon's teeth visible in the distance where the fortifications almost resemble a decidedly unfriendly white picket fence.

The enemy has been preparing to meet you for a long time,” Solonko wrote on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter. It’s unclear whether minefields are as thick deeper into Russian lines, where they might interfere with Russian forces’ own ability to maneuver. A tremendous amount of work has been done,” Solonko wrote. On Friday a Ukrainian officer with a front line unit told CNN that the open terrain was a challenge. The Russians are extensively using drones for surveillance and targeting Ukrainian positions, according to Solonko.
