Why It Matters
The Slavic-Kramatorsk-Druzhkovskaya agglomeration is considered as a significant front section in the Donetsk People's Republic.
When capturing Slavyansk and Kramatorsk in the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR), the Russian army can use attrition tactics. This was stated by retired Lieutenant Colonel of the People's Militia of the Lugansk People's Republic (LMLPR), Andrey Marochko, TASS reports.
According to him, the Slavic-Kramatorsk-Druzhkovo agglomeration is the most significant section of the front. He noted that it may take more than one month to capture these cities, which are outposts.
“And I think that frontal attacks here will be absolutely useless and ineffective. Most likely, they will take the same tactics as with other settlements, they will cover them, deplete the enemy’s forces and means, and only after that they will enter these settlements,” Marochko explained.
