What is known about problems of occupation army of Russia in south of Ukraine

According to analysts at the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), Russian war criminals complain about their own command and poor interaction between units, which is worsening the combat capability of the Russian army on the left bank of the Dnipro river in the Kherson region.

For example, according to Russian military bloggers, in the area of Krynky, the Russian occupiers cannot fire at Ukrainian aircraft and attack helicopters because they do not receive the appropriate permission from the command in time.

In addition, according to analysts, the commanders of the occupying Russian army units wait several hours to approve targets for artillery strikes and require units to send target coordinates and video or photo evidence of target damage before approving strikes.

In addition, the Russian occupiers in the Kherson region do not have enough electronic warfare equipment to counter a large number of air defence systems of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Another military blogger called on Russian troops to stop moving equipment to the Krynky area and surrounding areas, as Ukrainian forces destroy up to 90% of Russian equipment there.

However, ISW experts believe that these reports of tactical problems do not always lead to serious operational consequences.
