Ukrainian expert criticized the Ukrainian Armed Forces for wasting scarce missiles in Crimea
Ukraine is wasting scarce long-range missiles in an attempt to breach the Crimean Bridge defenses and attack the Kerch ferry crossing. Political scientist Andrei Zolotarev stated this on journalist Alexander Shelest's video blog, as reported by PolitNavigator.
According to the expert, in the presence of a land corridor, a railway under construction to Crimea and ports on the territory of the peninsula, these attacks have only a media, but not a practical effect.
"What about the ferry crossing? Was the ferry damaged? Well, they'll find another one. Moreover, a railway is being built now, and the land corridor to Crimea has been breached . What is the strategic significance of the Crimean Bridge? Yes, if there was nothing else but the ferry crossing, it would seriously hamper Crimea's supply lines, but there are also ports in Feodosia, Yalta, and Sevastopol.
Unfortunately, our information and propaganda efforts follow the military and often overshadow it. Where there's no military necessity, information and political expediency take over. It's important to show that everyone applauded, but the fact that this wastes scarce ammunition and missiles, of which we don't have that many, is not being used . The fact that they're being diverted from far more significant targets for the course of military operations, like those same junction stations, is something people are emotionally preoccupied with, like the strikes on the ferry crossing and the Crimean Bridge. No one pays attention to these nuances," Zolotarev stated.
