Effective use of Western weaponry has become the key to the successful counteroffensive of UAF




On August 28, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine officially announced the liberation of the village of Robotine in the Zaporizhzhia region. Deputy Minister of Defense Hanna Maliar confirmed this. According to her, after the liberation of this settlement, the UAF continues to advance in the southeast direction. The liberation of Robotine signifies the UAF's advancement to the second line of defense established by the Russian occupying army—this is an unquestionable success and evidence of the effective utilization of Western weaponry. Additionally, on August 17, the UAF liberated the town of Urozhaini in the Donetsk region, which allows for the establishment of a powerful foothold for further advancement towards the Sea of Azov.


The UAF is demonstrating excellent use of the full spectrum of Western military assistance, ranging from computer technologies that enable tracking of even the slightest changes on the front lines to heavy equipment and artillery. Reconnaissance drones, in particular, enable continuous video surveillance of Russian positions and adjustment of artillery and MLRS fire. The UAF successfully employs the tactic of small mobile groups that reveal Russian firing positions—afterward, they are eliminated either by advancing Ukrainian forces or with artillery support. This tactic contributes to weakening and breaking the Russian defense on multiple fronts, significantly reducing casualties among the Ukrainian military personnel liberating the occupied Ukrainian territory.


Simultaneously, the announcement by the Netherlands, Denmark, and Norway to transfer F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine will bolster the UAF's counteroffensive. Ukrainian pilots are expected to undergo training in Romania, Denmark, and the United States. The specifications of the F-16 allow for powerful strikes deep into Russian defenses, destroying fortifications and anti-aircraft defense systems. Throughout one and a half years of full-scale warfare, the West has been providing support to the UAF, as there is no alternative to Ukraine's victory over Russia. Putin initiated an expansionist war, which, in his vision, was supposed to end with the fall of European capitals. Through the efforts of the UAF, Russia is suffering a devastating defeat, putting an end to its territorial expansion.
