Russians Hammer Siversk with Artillery and Tank Fire
Published 2 years ago
Footage released through official Russian channels shows what appears to be the preparatory bombardment of the city of Siversk by artillery and tanks.
A preparatory bombardment is conducted before an advance in most cases. The intent is to utilize reconnaissance from both real time intelligence and aerial surveillance to target key enemy infrastructure and positions inside of an area you are about to attack to decimate or at least lessen the resistance you'll face moving into an area.
This video appears to show that action being taken against the city of Siversk, where there has been recent fighting between Russian and Ukrainian forces in the easternmost outskirts since the beginning of July.
