The point of Russia’s meat wave tactics

Video Summary

The “human wave” tactic, employed by Russia, involves launching repeated, wave-like attacks against Ukrainian forces, using large numbers of troops, until they eventually break through and gain territory. While this tactic may seem brutal and effective, it has a deeper purpose. Russia’s goal is not just to gain territory, but to demonstrate its resolve and determination to the West. By showing that it is willing to absorb heavy casualties, Russia aims to intimidate the West into believing that Ukraine is hopeless and that all efforts to support it are futile. This narrative is designed to erode Western support for Ukraine and create a narrative that Ukraine has already won and that further resistance is futile. However, this tactic, which was used in the past, has been shown to be ineffective in other conflicts, where it has led to increasing international pressure and support for the opposing side.
