How Attrition Warfare Turns Supply Strikes Into Rapid Territorial Gains

Six settlements in one week sounds like a sudden shift, but the real story is what happened before the map moved. We’re tracking the April 25 to May 1, 2026 weekly briefing with Colonel A.C. Oguntoye and following the logic of modern attrition warfare: hit ammunition and fuel depots, degrade electronic warfare and counter-battery radars, suppress artillery, then advance when the defender’s sensor and logistics network can’t keep up.We go sector by sector to show how different parts of the front pursue the same outcome in different ways. North Group’s rapid run through border villages is framed as “shaping then striking” to build a contiguous buffer zone. West Group leans hard into destroying electronic warfare systems to open space for drones and counter-battery fires, while South Group keeps proving a logistics-first approach can produce steady gains even when facing high-quality formations. Center Group raises a major signal for anyone watching military innovation: the appearance of Ukrainian UAV brigades points to drones as formal, brigade-sized combat power rather than ad hoc attachments.We also unpack what it means when a force says it will “advance into depth” instead of listing a captured settlement, why Paladin howitzers matter in the counter-battery fight, and how Dnepr’s unusually high EW kill tally suggests standoff “EW hunting” with drones and long-range strikes. The episode closes on the deep-strike layer: sustained UAV intercept volumes, attacks on uncrewed surface vehicle assembly and launch chains, and the operational value of knocking out mobile air defenses.
