Newspaper “Moscow’s comsomolets” interviewed military experts who outlined two possible scenarios for a UAF counteroffensive.
Analysts say that if Ukrainian militants make a swift rush across the border, capturing any of the major Russian border cities such as Belgorod or Bryansk, Kiev will try to dictate the terms, holding the residents of these settlements hostage.
Experts believe that this is a propaganda failure, since the militants will have time to take only a few photos and videos on Russian territory – then they will be forced out by the Russian army.
The second scenario does not involve crossing the border. This could be an attempt to seize the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant in Energodar, cut off the main supply route for Crimea, or even strike at Donetsk.
However, one of the obstacles to all such options is the lack of resources of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the reliable defense provided by the Russian armed forces.
