M777 howitzers are "three axes" to neutralize Russian equipment - Serhiy Zgurets

The consequences of using the Swedish grenade launcher AT-4 against Russian armored vehicles are effective. Sweden is going to give us about 5,000 such samples. We have previously been assisted by the US and the UK with anti-tank systems, the most famous of which is the Javelin. The use of Javelins has good results. The Pentagon (US Department of Defense - Ed.) wrote that Ukrainian fighters fired 112 shots from the Javelins and 100 of them successfully hit Russian armored vehicles. The figures shown by the Ukrainian army are higher than those of the US Marines. The destruction of 1,300 Russian tanks (a total of various weapons during the war) is a sign of the effective use of these weapons. Statistics on the destruction of Russian equipment will continue to increase. Also, the Ukrainian army is already using American M777 howitzers. They are called 'three axes' and are successfully used in combat zones. Howitzer hits a Russian tank, which then flies out of the blast tower.

In the photo we see how the 72nd Brigade uses M777 howitzers and strikes at Russian Hail systems.

See how a Russian tank and ammunition are burning in the forest. M777 works at ranges where Russia can't fire on our artillery. We can use modern weapons that we have received from our partners in the right place.

I asked Mykhailo Samus, Center for Army Studies deputy director, how he sees the risks of possible Belarusian interference in our territory using its military potential.

From the point of view of increasing aggression, it would be advantageous for Putin to attract more territories and players, because for him stopping this war is a failure. From a military point of view, the Belarusian armed forces aren't a big problem for Poland or Ukraine now, but only from a military rational point of view. We thought the same way on February 23, when we thought that Russia wouldn't dare to attack Ukraine, because it would be a catastrophe. The catastrophe has happened and we have a war now, the same situation with Belarus. Russia and Putin personally are trying to involve Lukashenko in this war, perhaps even in the direction not only of Ukraine but also of Lithuania. Thus, in testing NATO for its determination to use its fifth article, will NATO dare to activate this article by consensus to help Lithuania? This will be a huge challenge for NATO. I think that the rationality of assessing the capabilities of the Belarusian armed forces isn't the main thing here. The main thing is the inadequacy of the situation for Putin, as well as for Lukashenko, who would try to jump out of this trap, but Putin will not let him go.

This conflict will not be quick and Putin has time. Lukashenko was counting on one or three months, saying that he would be able to refrain from direct participation, so he delayed his time as much as possible.  Belarus has already decided to establish a southern command and is undergoing open preparations, i.e. Putin has pressed Lukashenko. Now, under the need to train forces and create additional structures, Lukashenko is trying to delay time for another couple of months, hoping to change the situation. For example, Ukraine is launching a counteroffensive, but again, Putin will demand a strike in the back and distract the Ukrainian army in the north.

If a Belarusian soldier enters the territory of Ukraine, it will be a tragedy for the Belarusian people. Because Belarusians aren't Russians, in terms of mentality and propaganda, but these are their internal problems and let them remove their slightly inadequate mustachioed leader.
