Russian forces are using guided aerial bombs to effectively advance across the territory and destroy cities and positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. This information was provided by Mykola Zin'ko, the former mayor of Rava-Ruska and now the commander of the fire support company of the 5th Separate Assault Brigade, in an interview with Tsn.ua.
For example, in the city, when you can fight protected in a certain building and they stage an assault there, two, three - can't take this building, suffer losses, then they just level it with the ground using guided aerial bombs. And accordingly, the advance continues. We saw this in Bakhmut, where entire districts were just erased from the face of the earth to advance further, he said.
According to him, similar destruction of cities is happening in Toretsk, where the Russian army destroys houses, leaving only ruins under the foundation.
