Analysts say Ukraine has difficulty effectively clearing Russian minefields because they are now up to 500 meters deep. “A standard Russian minefield is about 120 meters deep, but the Russians have discovered that Ukraine can destroy such fields with the Soviet UR-77 Meteorite or the American M58 MICLIC,” the publication says.
In addition, journalists emphasize that minefields are protected from demining by mortar fire, artillery fire and air strikes of combat helicopters.
