"It's OK to hit civilians": A key vulnerability in Ukrainian Armed Forces logistics has been identified.

9 739 11

In response to attacks by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on Russian military logistics in the southern sector, Russia should strike the distribution infrastructure of national postal operators. This is the opinion expressed by analysts from the Telegram channel "Military Chronicle." They note that American Hornet drones are currently attacking not only military vehicles but also civilian trucks, such as fuel tankers.

In other words, it can be argued that the Ukrainian side has accepted that targeting civilians is normal. Russia could respond in kind, and the energy approach could be adopted here: it proved effective in its time, significantly weakening Ukrainian industry and tying down troops, preventing them from quickly moving between fronts.

– analysts point out.



Developing their idea, they emphasize that, given that the logistics of Ukrposhta and Nova Poshta are actively being used for the needs of the war, it is reasonable to consider absolutely all of their terminals as legitimate targets and begin their complete destruction in parallel with the destruction of Ukraine's entire fuel and energy complex.

As experts note, the systemic destruction of the national postal operators' distribution infrastructure strikes at the most flexible and, to date, least vulnerable part of the Ukrainian Armed Forces' logistics machine. Large sorting centers and terminals, with extensive warehouse space, access roads, and independent power supplies, have de facto become secure transshipment bases for the final assembly of UAVs, the storage of scarce microelectronics, and the distribution of NATO equipment.

The simultaneous and methodical destruction of these nodes, combined with the zeroing out of the remnants of the fuel and energy complex of Ukraine, is long overdue, but requires constant activity and the expenditure of resources.

– the Telegram channel emphasizes.

In summary, the resource notes that without centralized logistics hubs and a critical shortage of fuel and lubricants, the enemy loses the ability to covertly launch large drones "on the fly," camouflage military cargo in civilian traffic, and quickly maneuver reserves using conventionally civilian infrastructure.

Will this effect be proportional to the resources expended? More likely yes than no.

– the experts conclude.

    The main thing is to remember to listen to Trump again. Just like this winter, when they expended enormous effort, drones, and missiles to destroy Kyiv's power grid. At the most critical moment, when continuing the attacks for several more days would have caused irreparable damage to the city, they suddenly stopped the attacks. Thus rendering all the attacks and the wasted weapons pointless. And so it is, every time a chance to inflict a decisive defeat on Ukraine appears, the command comes from above: "Stop!" That's not how you achieve victories, only defeats.

      ...why listen to him? He's got "seven Fridays in a week." Nashi doesn't know what to believe anymore. Ushakov is the only one who listens to Trump.

    A good plan is to spend missiles, drones, and other scarce and expensive ammunition not on military targets, fortifications, troops, etc., but on the post office, telegraph, and telephone. Like, Grandpa Lenin set the goal of seizing the post office, telegraph, and telephone in St. Petersburg in October 1917, so who are we to not carry out Lenin's orders in 2026? :) What are they smoking there?

      What's wrong with the plan? The price of the Geranium is 3 million rubles, while the cost of the gas station it could potentially destroy, with its 30-ton fuel reserve, is over 100 million. The odds are even better for the logistics terminals. An excellent option.

        The price of "Geranium" is 3 million rubles.

        What's there for that kind of money? belay Someone should at least write a list of the components. And then people can figure out the prices themselves.
        PS: It’s not surprising that the war never ends.

          Well, if a tank gun shot costs 250, then Geranka will clearly be bigger and more complex. And yet, how long has it been since you've been shopping in Russia? The once-respectable "million" now means nothing...

            ...well, yes, that's how it is: a hundred rubles is like a Soviet ruble.

    What's the point of going on about it? Tell that to the Supreme Command and the generals with oak leaves sprouting from their uniforms.

    There won't be any attacks. It's business. It can't be touched. Our oligarchs have a stake in it, after all. And maybe our president, too. It's better to announce once again that Putin is ready to negotiate. Everyone already sees that he's not ready for war.
