The Russian Armed Forces stopped sparing Iskanders for the Armed Forces of Ukraine
Russian troops switched to the tactic of multiple missile strikes on targets, whereas previously one Iskander was supposed to attack one target.
Russian military correspondent Alexander Kots announced this broadcast on Komsomolskaya Pravda radio, PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
He recalled the missile strike of the Russian Armed Forces this week on the temporary deployment point of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Dimitrovo, Zaporozhye region, where in early November a Russian missile had already arrived in the neighborhood, hitting a concentration of Ukrainian soldiers.
"They destroyed a headquarters in some administrative building. You can see cars arriving, people going inside. Former MP Ihor Mosiychuk was the first to report this. He was indignant that this building was located next to the one we had attacked earlier. He said, 'What are you doing? Haven't you learned any lessons from the previous strike? You continued to remain carelessly in this building?' So, he contacted the prosecutor's office. He said a National Guard unit was stationed there. Information is coming in today that it was the headquarters of the 115th Motorized Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and the footage shows two missiles hitting it. Mosiychuk says there was a third. Apparently, when they rushed to clear the rubble, they dropped another missile there just to be sure, to prevent anyone from escaping," Kots said.
He voiced several conclusions from what happened.
“Based on the results of objective control, it is clear that it arrived very clearly, and here several points must be noted at once. Firstly, this is the clarity of reconnaissance work, and secondly, these are the expanding capabilities of surveillance by means of unmanned aircraft. We see that in the deep rear we have the opportunity to observe what is happening, undetected by the enemy's electronic warfare and air defense systems.
Well, the fact that we have several Iskanders aimed at one target at once is also very cool, this is not the first time I have seen this. Usually one Iskander was allocated to one target, and this target was considered destroyed. And now everything is changing.
I saw, for example, objective monitoring of the armored tank plant in Kharkov, where Ukrainian combat vehicles continue to undergo repairs. And there, if I’m not mistaken, three Iskanders flew there, and it’s clear that they arrived very clearly. And Kharkov is still quite far from the line of military contact, and we still have the opportunity to see what is happening there and strike there,” said the military correspondent.
According to him, the carelessness of the Ukrainians is explained by the fact that the Ukrainian Armed Forces are simply not used to the fact that such attacks can be carried out.
“Mosiychuk is worried, groaning - how did it happen that the first blow, and you did not draw conclusions, and this is very simple. The people there are not afraid, they are not used to being hit so far. At first, we weren’t afraid of the Highmars either. Until it comes to us, we won’t be baptized.
Now, of course, it’s impossible for something like this to hit the neighboring house, but you continue to be in your usual place as if nothing had happened. Nowadays, precautions come first for people with brains.
It is clear that there will always be a human factor, someone will always want to set up a formation on the street near the contact line. We know such examples, unfortunately, in our army, but this is the exception rather than the rule,” Kots said.
He added that, be that as it may, “images of objective control that fly far, that hit accurately, they give reason for cautious optimism.”
