The army of the occupier country of Russia uses "dragon's teeth" or the Mannerheim-Wagner line to defend its positions in Zaporizhie region — primitive fortifications of the early last century, which in the conditions of modern warfare will be of little use during a Ukrainian counteroffensive. When planning a counteroffensive, the General Staff uses effective tactics, considering several directions at a time.
Currently, the bases of Russian strategic bombers, such as Engels-2 in Saratov region, are beyond the reach of Ukrainian forces. However, when the time comes, "puff", as Russian newspeak puts it, may fall on them, as was the case with the Crimean bridge, "Moskva" missile cruiser and other military targets of the occupiers. This was said by the co-director of foreign policy programs, coordinator of international projects of Razumkov Centre, military expert Oleksiy Melnyk in an exclusive interview for OBOZREVATEL.
