Why did the Russian army face such resistance in Kharkov

February 25 2022 97

On February 25, Russia began entering the second echelon of its offensive troops into the territory of Ukraine for the speedy completion of a special military operation to denazify a neighboring country. This can be seen from reports from eyewitnesses who spoke of giant columns of Russian armored vehicles entering Ukraine from several directions.

This was expected, but the surprise was that the troops that were supposed to enter the Left Bank through Kharkov were forced to bypass the city from two sides.

Kharkov is now surrounded. The Russian army faced fierce resistance from the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the National Guard there. Therefore, it is interesting to find out all the circumstances of what is happening.

The local grouping of the Armed Forces of Ukraine mobilized the entire machinery, which is available at the enterprises of the city. Kharkov is the main base for the production and repair of armored vehicles in the country, so a large number of them have accumulated there.

A wide variety of vehicles appeared on the streets of Kharkov: from armored recovery vehicles (BREM) and MLRS, and even to the 2S7 Pion self-propelled gun. Thus, the Armed Forces of Ukraine used everything they could. The Armed Forces of Ukraine have placed all these weapons and equipment systems in dense residential areas and, hiding behind the civilian population, are stubbornly trying to keep the city.

A situation has arisen in which the Russian command decided not to go for a full-fledged cleansing of the city from the Armed Forces of Ukraine in order to avoid a large number of civilian casualties. It is for this reason that the Russian military had to revise its original plans, starting to enter the second echelon through alternative routes, and not along the Belgorod-Kharkov route.

One part of the troops headed along the Belgorod-Kupyansk highway with further advance to Izyum, bypassing Kharkov from the south. Another went through the Sumy region towards Kiev, bypassing Kharkov from the north. In general, on this day, only one Belgorod region of Russia entered the territory of Ukraine a whole corps - more than 1 thousand pieces of equipment: tanks, self-propelled guns, infantry fighting vehicles, etc. Therefore, there is no doubt that very soon the entire Left Bank will be under the control of the RF Armed Forces.

        They are needed not in conversations about versions, or at an exhibition. And in the troops, destroying point targets in settlements.
        
        In February 2020, during Operation Spring Shield, Turkish UAVs dealt a powerful blow to the Syrian army and pro-government forces in Idlib province, destroying dozens of vehicles and killing hundreds of fighters.
        The war in Nagorno-Karabakh in the fall of 2020 also clearly demonstrated the effectiveness of the massive use of these weapons. The Azerbaijani side used hundreds of drones of Iranian, Israeli and Turkish production for reconnaissance, target designation and destruction of structures, military equipment and manpower of the enemy.
        
        Why are there no such messages in favor of the Russian army? Why has there been only talk about projects and developments for more than 20 years? Despite the allocated tens of billions of rubles and a heap of criminal cases?

In urban battles, Chechen assault squads would be useful. The goal is clearly set - the destruction of not people, but only their equipment. The process will be faster, and people without vehicles will lose most of their combat capability - the city can be taken in the usual way

  In fact, what I recently wrote about
  https://topcor.ru/23911-vsu-mogut-ustroit-rossijskoj-armii-polupartizanskuju-vojnu.html
  
  Imagine a big city that is gradually turning into a fortified area. On the streets there are barricades and anti-tank barriers, in the entrances of houses, fighters with Javelin anti-tank systems are hiding in order to attack assault tanks and other armored vehicles. Snipers are patiently aiming at the windows. Fighters with MANPADS "Stinger" are sitting in ambushes. Spetsnaz uses underground communications and knowledge of the area. So, what is next? Trying to storm the city with the corresponding losses in personnel? Or then demolish it to the ground? For example, Kharkov? Together with the defenders and civilians who did not have time to escape and were forced to become hostages?
  And this is all under the cameras of foreign journalists and with the appropriate informational background? I wonder what other sanctions the West will throw at us for this? And how many such “Kharkovs” will there be throughout Ukraine? It remains only to bypass such settlements, occupying strategically important points for control over the territory, and begin to negotiate with the besieged for surrender. But even here there will be problems with specially trained units trained in guerrilla warfare. And it is not a fact that the defenders will all surrender together.

Is Russia to blame for the fact that the Ukronatsiks are such scumbags and are we guilty that they were poorly prepared for war? People like you squealed at all sites that the Ukrainian army now is not the army of 2014-2015 that you crumbled in boilers? Didn’t you and people like you squeal to us here? Ukraine has (had) air defense, aviation, MLRS and other equipment, so that we don’t need to sing la-la here. On UkroTV I heard many times that the armed forces of the Russian Federation will fall down at the border, they won’t even be able to cross it.

    Because now there is a process of liberation of vast territories and in five minutes all the forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine cannot be neutralized purely physically. How many have already been destroyed?

    Do you know for sure that they are not? Again from the negotiations that have already promised to lay out?

      Why five or ten minutes? Units of the 53rd brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and their engineering structures did not fall from the moon today. Their coordinates have long been known. Or still unknown?
      Apparently much less destroyed than reported. Judging by the incessant artillery attacks on civilian objects of the LDNR.
      
      If there were drills, KAB, kamikaze UAVs, self-propelled guns with high-precision projectiles, they would be used. About the same as Turks and Azerbaijanis.

        For the mass of military objects, a much larger outfit of forces is required. Especially aviation, and aviation weapons.
        The items discussed are few, not enough for an intense conflict, and they are overpriced.

    Where are the Russian UAVs Orion, Helios, Altius? Where are Krasnopol precision-guided shells? Why did the Azerbaijanis use them en masse, but we didn't? Where is the Bomb Drill? Where is the UAV Lancet?
    
    And who are you to give you such information? And who told you that they don’t use this? Or should Shoigu personally call you and report what the Russian army uses in Ukraine? In my opinion, my personal opinion, the Nazis in the LDNR are specifically kept so that they do not run deep into the rear. Most likely, as ours take, almost all cities in the west will go to the rear of the Nazis and there they will be stupidly shot in ticks along with the LDNR.

      You can see it even through snippets of messages. Old equipment, old ammunition. The servicemen are poorly provided with bulletproof vests, there are no collimator sights on personal weapons. The outfit of forces is clearly insufficient for the operational destruction of the 53rd brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. There is no question of taking cities. There will not be enough commandant's offices and forces to ensure the maintenance of order. Even if you call on all parking attendants, watchmen, loaders, security guards.

    Don't make a wave. If you take a closer look Russia does not use weapons of mass destruction. What I mean. No TOS-1, Pinocchio. Heavy artillery. There are no air bombs from 500 kg and above ... Further, it must be admitted that now in Ukraine there is not the same army as it was in 2014. Now the Ukrainian army is better trained and combat-ready. I think that Putin decided to put an end to the Bandera army correctly. If you don't do this, in five years it would really become a threat to Russia as part of NATO.

UAVs and precision-guided munitions are scarce and expensive. As in 1941, infantry forward.

You are just writing out of inertia. Now there is a video with spans of sea calibers, military facilities are being destroyed precisely with calibers.
How did you destroy the 72nd Center for Information and Psychological Operations of the Ukrainian army, by the way, the same calibers, they don’t send actual installations and you scratch the old ones.

The fact that the Ukronazis will consolidate their armed resistance precisely in cities with massive Russian support is quite expected. Only in Russian Kharkov can they really hope to hide from Russian tanks behind the backs of the Russian population. It's the same in Odessa. Tactically, this is a pretty good decision. But strategically, this essentially means the inevitable physical destruction of this military contingent. Let it be delayed, but no one will forget or forgive such pranks for them. And Russia, of course.

Yesterday, unfortunately, I did not notice this article. And probably the comment yesterday would have been different, but today .... At night, shelling began at about one o'clock, my wife and great-granddaughter hid in the basement, and I could not figure out where, judging by the sound, the calibers were flying. Found out in the morning. The incineration plant has been destroyed and the cemetery has been demolished! The brave battalion commander probably owed the destruction of a formidable military facility.

Before the start of hostilities, much was written about the number of troops. About triple advantage and so on.
So, according to the data that was written BEFORE the start of hostilities, the number of Russian troops was estimated at 100-150 thousand people (70-100 BTG). It's not my fault. This was the scatter of data in different sources. Plus 50 thousand in LDNR. Total maximum 200 thousand people. With an overwhelming advantage in technology.
The number of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was estimated at 250 thousand people. Of these, 150 thousand in the Donbass. Plus an unspecified number of various volunteer battalions, terbats and other things. Some wrote about 500 armed men in the Ukrainian army.
As you can see, there is no question of any threefold numerical advantage.
Another thing is that the one who owns the initiative can concentrate troops in the chosen directions. And achieve tactical superiority. Plus, the equipment, which, as some assured on this site, is either outdated or does not exist in the Russian army.
So the defeat of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was predetermined.
On the other hand, the liquidation of the infantry that has settled in the cities, even in the absence of equipment, will require heavy casualties and losses among the civilian population. So, blocking such garrisons seems like a reasonable enough idea. You can turn the surrounded cities into a lunar landscape (the Russian army has the technical capabilities). But no one will do this for political reasons. These cities will be inhabited by people who must know who is their friend and who is their enemy. Moreover, all these cities are located in the east of Ukraine.

The tactics of the RF Armed Forces are already obvious. It performs the task of demilitarizing Kyiv.
That is, it breaks the military machine of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. And he does it successfully.

As I understand it, no one is going to storm major cities. Blocked and that's it.
Let them distribute at least millions of Kalashnikovs. This is a local problem.
Let me remind you that the Russian Federation solves its security tasks on the territory of the former Ukraine.
Charity in the form of the release of former brothers / sisters is not pledged. It will turn out to help somewhere - they will help, but no, no. The local people are very ungrateful and painfully cunning. He likes to rake in the heat with the wrong hands and hope that the Russians will clean up all the dirt that has accumulated on the territory for them. And they get spit in the back for it.

Assistance will be provided to the LDNR. They will liberate the republics, which will clean up all the opponents of the Russian Federation as much as possible. The republics will ask for entry into the Russian Federation, where they will be accepted and help restore the regions of the Russian Federation economically.

The rest of the territory of the former Ukraine can only count on mutually beneficial cooperation with the Russian Federation.
You will have to clean up the cities on your own. Where they take them is the own business of the inhabitants of this free territory.

Russia will limit itself to pinpoint strikes and special forces. Israel has accumulated a lot of experience of war in densely populated areas. This experience can be used on the territory of the former Ukraine.
Interaction with the authorities who are ready to cooperate with Russia. Let the rest save themselves.

And don't believe the rumors. And don't disturb the dead, they don't bother anyone anymore. Modern intelligence methods are completely different. It is enough to pass by the object with a navigator, and strike these numbers home. The computer will record and queue for execution. You can drive by car, and if, even if you are not allowed to be nearby, you can manually correct the coordinates and send. Even a lieutenant who graduated from college can recalculate a hundred meters per second of coordinate correction.

This war is one of many episodes of the thousand-year war between the Western European and Slavic superethnoi.
Only the instruments of this war change.

"Be fruitful and multiply and populate the earth..." Genesis. 1.28
And for this you need a forage base.
Territories and resources have already been divided among different peoples, associations of peoples, and in order to fulfill this first and main Testament, it is necessary to kill strangers and settle on the liberated lands with the resources available there.

In topics about Ukraine, the following should be borne in mind.
The land of Ukraine is the original Russian land, the cradle where the Russian PEOPLE was born.
For when people from different Russian TRIBES had a single God for them, then these people became the first representatives of the Russian PEOPLE.

And in Ukraine live only Russian people by blood.

Western Europeans are the enemies of the Slavs.
The goal of every Western European, his instinctive, subconscious desire: - "Kill someone else, seize his food base, populate the earth with your descendants."

As you can see, now Western Europeans have subjugated almost all the states of the Slavs (except Russia, Serbia, Belarus) and use them in their own interests, while not killing the Slavic population in them, as they did at the beginning of a new era with the Slavs in the territory of modern East Germany and this land was named "SLAVIC CEMETERY"; what they did with the natives of Western Europe when they came (their ancestors) there from North Africa about 5000 years ago.
They cut them all out.
This period in archeology and history is called "EUROPEAN GENOCIDE".

In the same way, these Western Europeans completely destroyed the Indians of the West Indies, and in North America they destroyed 90 percent, the rest were driven into reservations.
In South America, a part was destroyed, not all, but those that had time, and the rest fled, saving their lives, into the jungle.
The liberated lands were settled by Western Europeans.

In Ukraine, at present, before our eyes, there is an operation by Western Europeans to turn Russian people into "Ukrainians" - a chimera, cut off, people who have lost contact with their Russian ethnos, turning these already former Russian people into enemies of the Russian people.

And if someone writes in defense of these "Ukrainian"-chimeras, then this one is already the same "Ukrainian"-chimera himself in the service of Western Europeans.

"Ukrainians" - a chimera simply do not understand that they are doomed to be slaughtered, to be destroyed by Western Europeans in fulfillment of the "OST" plan, which they failed to put into practice during the Second World War.
And according to the "OST" plan, the Slavs were recognized as subhuman (untermenschlich), were subject to destruction, and the territory was settled by Western Europeans
