Originally Published 2 years ago — by Forbes
The Ukrainian marine corps has launched an offensive by crossing the Dnipro River and securing a bridgehead in southern Ukraine's Kherson Oblast. They have advanced south, challenging foreign observers who advocate appeasing Russian leader Vladimir Putin. The Ukrainian military strategically used electronic warfare to isolate Russian forces and prevent their drones from operating effectively. Ukrainian drones and warplanes targeted Russian jammers, while the Ukrainian army disrupted Russian supply lines. As winter approaches, the logistic situation for Russian forces is expected to worsen. The Ukrainian marines have successfully repelled Russian counterattacks and expanded their counteroffensive, crossing the river at new locations. Despite the upcoming challenges of winter and muddy conditions, the marines are confident in sustaining their advance.
