It is becoming increasingly clear that the AFU is systematically attacking the enemy's
fuel logistics.
The attack on the oil depot is one of the elements of preparation for the counteroffensive
actions of the AFU.
This was confirmed by the speaker of the Operational Command "South", which is responsible for
this direction.
The tactic of destroying enemy logistics is one of the most effective since the beginning
of the war.
One of the elements of the reflection of enemy convoys to Kyiv was the undermining of fuel
logistics.
The fact is that supply lines according to the canons should not exceed 100 km, and for
one Battalion tactical group on average 10-12 fuel tankers are needed.
In the occupied territories the enemy is not able to accumulate a reserve of fuel due to
the destroyed relevant infrastructure and the missile reach of Himars systems.
The only safe way to supply goes through the Crimea, but even this stretches logistics
well over a hundred kilometers.
In total, the enemy has over 500 oil depots, but within reach of a few hundred kilometers
this figure is much more modest, only 35-40 oil depots.
In less than a week the AFU successfully attacked six enemy oil depots.
Of course one attack will not take out all the tanks, but for example in Sevastopol 60%
of the capacity was destroyed after only one attack.
This is by the way a key fuel hub in Crimea, which now has 10 destroyed tanks and several
damaged ones.
Now add that the attacks are carried out in small groups of 3-5 drones, and it will take
at least 5 months to repair the damage in Sevastopol.
The AFU will be like "pianists playing" on enemy oil depots, destroying tank after tank.
The aggressor country's command has to make a decision to either pull precious air defense
from the front or from under Putin's ass to protect the oil depots.
Because it turns out that Ukrainian drones fly hundreds of kilometers of enemy territory
and reach the target, and Russians have problems protecting even a small number of strategic
airfields.
So one can only wish: "Play Maestro, play!"
The initial stage of preparation of the counteroffensive is so media-intensive, as well as the counteroffensive
itself: the Minister of Defense almost every day gives a comment on the readiness of the
AFU, the speakers openly say that destruction of logistics is preparation and much more,
which may seem illogical.
Add the drones in the Kremlin and no matter who launched them, the hysterics of the leader
of the Wagner group, the media disorganization of Russian propagandists.
All this information layering reinforces Zelensky's tour and symbolic speeches in The Hague, which
the press is already dubbing a "historic moment.
There is a balance between the military expediency of making this or that information public
and the political heating of this topic for the corresponding negotiating positions on
arms.
The key goal is to increase belief in success.
The key outcome is to increase military assistance on the principle of "Still a bit short to
achieve maximum results."
The second point is that the initial phase of the counteroffensive has already begun
and that Zelensky is performing his international functions as president at the time of this
start.
He is not "directing Commander-in-Chief Zaluzhnyi in manual mode."
This is a critical aspect to success: politicians should stay out of the military's business.
Therefore, hopefully the full effect of the information layering will result in "faith"
and, as a consequence, additional military aid packages.
