Scouts detain 2 ukrainian soldiers aboard a sports motorcycle | Ukraine 2022

Serious lack of protection. Motorcycles offer no protection for the ukrainian troops, unlike armored vehicles. This makes them vulnerable to russian fire and improvised explosive devices. Russian scouts are essential for gathering intelligence, providing security, and supporting the overall war effort through a variety of specialized tasks like collecting useful intelligence about ukrainian army movements, positions, and plans. Scouts would ride ahead of the main russian army to screen the movement of their own forces and prevent the enemy from discovering them. This allows the Russian Armed Forces to maneuver more effectively.
