The Russian army copies the most effective AFU actions — Tarnavskyi

The Russian occupiers quickly learned from their mistakes and AFU's mistakes. The OSTG "Tavria" commander, Brigadier General Oleksandr Tarnavskyi, told this.

Russians quickly learn from their mistakes

Answering a question from the Ukrainian BBC about the change in the behaviour of Russians during the war, Tarnavskyi said that the occupiers learn very quickly.

War is development. It should not stay in place. I will say frankly, Russians learn very well — from our mistakes, from their mistakes.

According to Tarnavskyi, the Russians continue to fulfil the tasks before them, not sparing their human resources. In some areas, they lose and have a deficient moral and psychological state.

Now we can say that the Russian army borrows a lot from us. He learns quickly and probably adapts, copies those actions that are most effective for us. Even our tactical actions are adopted by the enemy — during the same assault actions in the trenches, when approaching the trenches. For example, very similar attacks began to be carried out in groups — detachments, platoon supported by two, maximum four armored vehicles.

At the same time, says Tarnavskyi, the so-called "meat assaults" by infantry continue.

This is normal for Russians. But they have huge losses of manpower, I would say, 3-5 times (more than Ukrainian losses — Ed.), and in some areas even more.

Russians use kamikaze drones on the battlefield

Tarnavskyi says that the Russians increasingly use kamikaze drones and widely use ground-based robotic platforms.

The latter is used mainly to transport ammunition to the position. The Russian occupiers are experimenting — they install anti-tank weapons and machine guns on them. And they learn very well, including from our positive actions. Which, on the one hand, pleases us, and on the other, maybe not.
