Don't wake up the North Wind
So, an attempt by a Ukrainian sabotage and terrorist group to penetrate the territory of Crimea. In terms of military intelligence (in turn borrowed from smugglers) - to carry out the “green path” - to illegally cross the border in what they thought was the most vulnerable place - along the Sivash salt marshes in the Armyansk region.
According to witnesses of the incident, in order to divert attention from the “green stuff”, the Ukrovermacht, from the terbats dug in on the border, fired small arms and armored vehicles at the checkpoint with Russian border guards, and in some places even rolled out their pieces of iron for direct fire.
According to official data, during the capture of the terrorists, two from our side died: an FSB operative and a paratrooper from the army border cover. These warriors saved Crimea from great disaster with their lives. May their memory be blessed!
At least one of the uninvited guests - an agent of Ukrainian military intelligence - was caught, sitting in a pre-trial detention center and writing an “opera”. The captured accomplices from those left to settle also knock like stoned woodpeckers. It makes no sense for the “powderbot” to lock himself away. In addition to the fact that he was taken with a weapon in his hands, at the time of his arrest the operatives seized from the liquidated group a lot of dangerous cargo (40 kg of TNT equivalent explosives alone), typical of Ukrainian special forces. There is evidence that the group that broke through used special NATO camouflage, masking its carrier from detection by a thermal imager.
Dill's impudence is frankly surprising. When they entered Crimea with weapons and explosives, what did they expect? That they will be met by the timid Crimean police from the Maidan-2 era?
If in the last two years any bull from the Right Sector Party has been accepted into the Ukrainian “Alpha”, this does not mean that the FSB has degraded. Maybe in Kyiv they forgot or decided to ignore that FSB operatives over the past two decades have forever transferred to the “Eden Tumen” those with even hotter heads than the current lock-haired ones? In vain, sir, in vain...
A representative of Ukrainian military intelligence officially refused to recognize his “heroes” and insists that there was an incident at the border with “armed Russian deserters” who went on the run.
The position is clear and does not cause surprise. The piquancy of the situation is that military intelligence is not involved in sending reconnaissance groups into enemy territory and conducting sabotage operations in peacetime. Therefore, an attack by infiltrators armed to the throat on Russian territory, whether they recognize it as such or not, is classified somewhat differently, namely under the article “terrorism.”
It directly follows from this that the detainees will not have the status of prisoners of war, and their fate, taking into account the deceased Russian serviceman, may be very unenviable. Salman Raduev, if he could, said. Recognizing an act of terror even against a disputed territory is very, very uncome il faut.
The FSB reports the liquidation of a network of terrorist cells in Crimea with the participation of citizens of Ukraine and Russia. All necessary investigative and search measures have been taken, as well as increased security measures at important infrastructure facilities and in crowded places.
Among other things, there is an interesting coincidence. Literally on the eve of the incident, the Sea Breeze 2016 exercise ended. The naval component of the exercise was disrupted due to the deplorable condition of the Ukrainian flagship, the patrol ship Hetman Sahaidachny. But the land part of the exercise took place under the thoughtful title “Southern Thunderstorm”. And not just, but with the participation of special forces of the US Army. The “legend” of the exercises is joint actions in territory captured by “separatists.”
Particular attention was to be paid to amphibious assault operations from the sea and from the air with the support of the Air Force, as well as the actions of small groups deep in enemy territory.
Under the cover of the exercises that took place near Odessa and Nikolaev, it was easy to train future spies and then transfer them to the Kherson region for the invasion of Crimea. “Powderbots” do not currently experience a shortage of instructors. At their service is a whole NATO training program, as well as Turkish militants from the Gray Wolves group.
However, the failure of the Ukrainian spies seems absolutely natural. Finding skilled “plusters” who can shoot and explode is not a problem. Without brains they are nothing. And the brains are usually concentrated in headquarters. Those involved in operational planning. Who is in charge of the Ukrainian General Staff (more broadly, in the country)? Sharkuns from corrupt cops, like Geletey, who slip their soldiers, instead of normal boots, slippers for the dead with cardboard soles. They have become so de-Sovietized in 25 years that just a decent person in a position causes considerable amazement. So will you win?
What's next?
The situation is alarming. The terrorist infiltration occurred on the verge of a military conflict with possible far-reaching consequences. The participation of current Ukrainian military intelligence officers in the “green path” gives the matter a serious turn, since it clearly reveals the participation of the top of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and Poroshenko in organizing the terrorist attack. And what happened cannot be considered in isolation from the current intensity of fighting in the Donbass and the assassination attempt on the leaders of the LPR and DPR.
The Kremlin has already made some conclusions. Today, August 10, the Russian President officially stated: “Ukraine has switched to the practice of terror,” “Russia will not ignore the death of its military,” and “after the events in Crimea, meetings in the Normandy format make no sense, especially in China.” .
It does not follow from this that Russia will immediately begin bombing Kyiv, Lviv and Kolomyia (however, terrorists are already a legitimate target), but certain organizational conclusions will be made.
For example, an attempted terrorist attack in Crimea gives an extra trump card to supporters of closing the border and tightening the regime of communication with an inadequate neighbor. Maybe not for 5 years, as the blogger who recently made quite a splash dreamed, but for a while, until the Ukrainian side sobers up and comes to its senses. Including in the Donbass.
At the moment, explosions of official and semi-official butts are being recorded in Kyiv and its environs. The National Security and Defense Council, the Security Service of Ukraine, the military intelligence of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and even the “Majlis” are rushing around with furious denials. Let us note, without waiting for the official press conference with the presentation of the detainees, corpses and material evidence. Which in itself is not surprising. As usual, the thief’s hat is on fire.
So, gentlemen, you need to think before the VKS FABs with “calibers” fly into your stupid brown head.
But it appears that Poroshenko chose war. He has already made his move. Don't wake up the North Wind, morons. Now let's see how the Kremlin responds.
