What are the losses among the Russian army

The importance of raids on Russian territory: the opinion of a military expert

< p>The features of the raid of Russian volunteers were analyzed for Channel 24 by a military expert, reserve colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Petr Chernik.

The military expert said that if they have artillery, and not only small arms, then this is already quite a good combat potential. The expert recalled that mortars can operate at a distance of 3 to 8 kilometers.

“This means that at this moment a small bridgehead has been created there. The larger it will be and most importantly extended in time, the better for us,” noted Petr Chernik.

According to him, if at least several hundred volunteers came, then in order to provide them with full resistance requires at least three times, or even four times more strength. That is, if there are 500 of them, then on the opposite side you need at least one and a half thousand. And this, as Chernik noted, is 2 full-fledged battalion tactical groups. So, these rather powerful forces need to be pulled away from the front.

The military man stated that “this is something unprecedented in this war.” He noted that this is the first time the raid has lasted so long. Chernik noted that the longer it lasts, the better.
