Quote: "The intensive use of drones on both sides has made both Russian and Ukrainian offensive operations impossible."

Details: Another factor, Budanov said, was the density of minefields, which has not been seen since World War II.

As the head of Ukraine’s Defence Intelligence said, "We know a solution for drones - electronic countermeasures.

But mines require specialised equipment: "This brings us back to the issue of production capacity. Nothing is unsolvable, but everything must be taken into account."
