Russian minefields have a psychological impact on the Ukrainian military. This is stated in an article by Der Spiegel.
According to the author, Russia has installed extensive minefields in the special operation zone, which make it very difficult for the AFU to advance during the counter-offensive.
In addition, the Ukrainian military fears Russian drones, which allow them to quickly determine the direction of an attack and suppress it with artillery.
“Soldiers are afraid of getting seriously wounded or killed by insidious mines,” the article said.
Earlier, the Washington Post said the minefields revealed the vulnerability of Western military equipment in the fighting in Ukraine.
On 14 July, a company commander of the Bars-10 volunteer detachment with the call sign Tor said that the Ukrainian military in Zaporizhzhya Region was using hit military equipment to clear minefields.
