Sladkov: If we're hitting train stations, it means we've spotted something important there.
Today's massive strike by Russian Geranium missiles on Ternopil, where a railway station was among the targets , means that intelligence has managed to detect significant enemy activity.
This follows from the story of war correspondent Alexander Sladkov in his video blog, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
"Strikes are being carried out. They can hit junction stations, but the fact is that far greater damage will be inflicted on both the station and the enemy's communications if, say, a train carrying personnel traveling to the front to replace sick and wounded soldiers is located there."
" Although there's no current plan for rotation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. But what if there's a train carrying ammunition, Western advisers, and Western fighters who are coming to support Ukraine on the battlefield? That would be a good thing," Sladkov said.
" So, simply hitting a railway junction is one thing, but getting solid intelligence , confirmed by multiple sources, and spending missiles—and missiles are always expensive—spending missiles, drones, and organizing this attack. It's not just throwing a grenade in that direction. No, everything is being prepared. And breaking through the enemy's air defense lines, and suppressing air defenses, suppressing the assets that would prevent them from inflicting greater damage.
"See what's going on with their evacuation, see what's going on with the technical support, which, in the event of our attack, will try to pull the trains apart. Somehow pull them to a safe distance. No , they all need to be taken out at once. So, well, the strikes are being carried out, they're being carried out. We can't fire missiles in bursts; that's counterproductive ," the war correspondent added.
