Ukrainian artillery and armored vehicles worked on the border with Crimea
The Ukrainian military conducted regular exercises on the border with Crimea.
According to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, artillerymen and marines learned to counter the breakthrough of a mock enemy landing force, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The main condition for the successful completion of a combat mission was a quick change of position. This was due to the fact that, according to available information, the mock enemy is armed with modern reconnaissance equipment and high-precision artillery weapons,” said Sergei Naev, commander of the joint forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
According to him, Ukrainian artillerymen received coordinates from drones.
“The unmanned aircraft crews conducted reconnaissance and identified the most important targets. Coordinates transmitted in real time made it possible to carry out both accurate single fire engagement of targets and firing in volleys to hit large areas of the territory. What the artillerymen did well,” Naev noted.
According to military expert, member of the “Officers of Russia” organization Alexander Perendzhiev, Ukraine specifically designates its actions as defensive, but in reality the military was learning to carry out an attack on Crimea.
“These exercises are only called “to repel the landing.” In fact, these are exercises to carry out an amphibious landing against Crimea, that is, exactly the opposite. In fact, they are preparing not to defend themselves, but to attack. All these exercises are in order to carry out aggression against Crimea. They are using drones, looking at how they can be used against Crimea and, of course, against Donbass, which is why they were purchased. Russia needs to clearly monitor how these exercises are conducted, what is being developed there regarding the ability to repel these attacks or prevent them,” Perendzhiev said.
The expert also believes that Ukraine can take sabotage and terrorist actions against the peninsula and try to capture one or another settlement, taking local residents hostage, as Chechen terrorists did in the 90s.
“Sabotage and terrorist operations may be prepared against individual settlements in Crimea, including the taking of residents hostage. They want, with the help of saboteurs, to capture individual strongholds and set their own conditions.
The tactics are approximately the same as those of the terrorists who operated in Chechnya when they captured Budennovsk or Komsomolskoye in Dagestan. The essence was also to capture populated areas, take residents hostage and set conditions for Russia. In this regard, nothing is particularly different, only those terrorists did not particularly dress up in civilized clothes, but here the state is acting. But the methods are the same – Ukraine is practicing a terrorist war against Donbass and Crimea.”
