Regarding the reasons for the reversal of the battlefield situation, external analysts believe that there may be the following: First, the Ukrainian army's "speaking east and attacking west" and " blitzkrieg " tactics. You should know that before this, the Ukrainian army had always claimed to launch a large counterattack, but the specific focus of the counterattack was on the Russian side. It was previously speculated that it was in the south of , Khlsong , and the Ukrainian army did launch a There were waves of attacks, so that at that time, some American officials also publicly claimed that the Ukrainian army was trying to "reshape the battlefield" in the Khlsong area. Now it seems that this is just a smoke bomb thrown by the Ukrainian army, and the focus of the Ukrainian counterattack fell near Kharkov in the north. Under the Ukrainian army's tactics of "speaking east and attacking west" and "blitzkrieg", the Russian army was not prepared enough, so that the Ukrainian army drove straight in, and the Russian army had to retreat in full swing.
Second, military aid from the United States and Western countries to Ukraine. On the battlefield of the Ukrainian counterattack, the Ukrainian army used various high-performance weapons provided by the West, such as the "Haimas" rocket launcher , the "Sthorn" air defense missile system, and the "Jaulin" anti-tank missile , M777 howitzer , and various individual weapons . Earlier, Ukrainian Defense Minister Leznikov said that the precise strike effect of Western weapons such as " Himas " brought great fear to the Russian army. In addition, the United States and Western countries trained a large number of Ukrainian soldiers, and they fought locally after returning to the battlefield, which to a certain extent also boosted the Ukrainian army's morale. It is undeniable that as of now, the battlefield situation in Russia and Ukraine has indeed changed a little.
