Part 4/8:
The Russian military’s situation is compounded by inadequate supply lines and a lack of air support, which has hindered their tactical effectiveness. One notable point of concern for the Russians was the introduction of higher-caliber artillery systems like the TOS-2, an upgraded thermobaric vehicle intended to provide fire support. However, even these units have been reportedly targeted and destroyed by Ukrainian counter-battery fire.
As casualties mount and strategic objectives remain unfulfilled, the Russian offensive efforts are anticipated to continue facing difficulties, spectating the potential for a Ukrainian drive toward Sadov in the coming weeks if momentum is preserved.
