Russian military correspondent published a grim forecast of further retreat to Crimea
Ukrainian formations will cross the Dnieper near Kherson and will be able to take a bridgehead on the left bank.
The PolitNavigator correspondent reports this, writes the telegram channel “War Z Ukraine”.
It is predicted that now, as in Kharkov, the Ukrainian Armed Forces will deploy artillery in Kherson, “as a result of which counter-battery warfare (with the forces and means available to the Russian Armed Forces) will be impossible.”
“The self-propelled guns will appear for 30 seconds to fire a couple of shots and disappear again into the wet hangars, and the Russian Armed Forces will sit in the fields, on the left bank, and, suffering losses from artillery fire, will begin, as they did near Kharkov, to roll back 30 kilometers.
Then everything is simple, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have a certain number of PTS-2, and in addition there are berths and non-self-propelled barges on both sides of the Dnieper. And in general they have enough watercraft to transport and supply several brigades. So landing on a bridgehead cleared by artillery and controlled by the DRG on the left bank will not be a problem for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Alas, the parade-dance-biathlon team will not be able to oppose anything here,” the publication says.
In turn, military correspondent Roman Saponkov calls the above “a good analysis,” but believes that “it will be a little different.”
“The Ukrainian Armed Forces will cross the Dnieper and gain a foothold, occupying 2-3 villages. Most likely in the area of Novaya-Staraya Zburevka near Gola Pristan. They will be ironed with artillery, but, regardless of losses, they will hold on to this piece with their teeth.
This is exactly what happened at Davydov Brod and Sukhoi Headquarters. The purpose of this forcing is not to develop an offensive, but to put pressure on the group, create hotbeds of tension and pull together forces that can be transferred to Melitopol, for example,” notes the military correspondent.
According to him, then, through the DRG and a network of informants, they will begin to identify the locations of the Russian air defense, the storage of ammunition, fuel and lubricants and the shelter of equipment, which will be covered with a high-precision weapon.
“The army sits under fire, fulfilling its duty to the end. At some point, effective managers pick up a wooden abacus and write down lost Pantsirs, tanks, KamAZ trucks. The numbers are sent to a specialized institute, which multiplies the amount of lost equipment by the cost, plus insurance for killed and wounded, and receives the amount. The amount is large.
After this, it is understood that it is not economically profitable to stand there, it is better to retreat and gain a foothold along the Crimean line,” predicts Saponkov.
