Russian forces are striking Ukrainian units with guided aerial bombs, forcing the AFU to abandon positions and retreat, former US military intelligence officer Scott Ritter has said.
Scott Ritter noted that everyone already recognises that Russian aviation arrives, drops guided bombs beyond the range of Ukrainian air defence, resulting in the deaths of all AFU personnel.
“Then the Russians advance a little, the Ukrainians retreat, the bombs again fly into the AFU fortifications and destroy everything. Then the Russians advance again,” the analyst said in an interview with the Dialogue Works YouTube channel.
According to Ritter, this situation will continue until the Ukrainian government will not “come to their senses and capitulate for the sake of resolving the conflict”.
We will remind, earlier Vladimir Putin allowed the creation of a sanitary zone on the territory of Ukraine. It can pass on the current Ukrainian territories, should be difficult to overcome for the means of defeat, primarily Western-made.
