Source: Armed Forces of Ukraine are ready to “bare” the Odessa direction for the sake of a counterattack on Kherson

August 31 2022 5

In an attempt to provide assistance to Ukrainian units in the south of the country, Kyiv initiates the transfer of reserve troops near Nikolaev, which were intended to contain the Russian Armed Forces in the event of their landing in the Odessa region. This was announced in his telegram channel by blogger and journalist Yuri Podolyaka, who referred to a source from the Odessa military district.

Thus, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are actually “bare” the Odessa direction for the sake of a counteroffensive near Kherson.

Now they were preparing and training about a thousand fighters for the transfer. Trains leaving soon

Podolyaka wrote.

According to the source, the main task of the reinforcements sent from Odessa is to hold the rear of the Ukrainian troops near Kherson. In the event of a breakthrough of the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the advanced units will suffer heavy losses, and the newly arriving soldiers will have to resist the Russian counterattack.

Meanwhile, the Russian Armed Forces are successfully resisting attempts by Ukrainian troops to launch a counteroffensive in the southern direction. Thus, the Armed Forces of Ukraine lost about 1200 servicemen and a large number of combat equipment, including T-72M1 tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and other armored vehicles supplied by the Poles, as well as Su-25 attack aircraft.

The efforts of the Ukrainians to block the allied units by destroying the strategically important bridges across the Dnieper were not crowned with success either.

which were intended to deter the RF Armed Forces in the event of their landing in the Odessa region.

And where will they land, on mined shores? And British anti-ship missiles are not taken into account?
Now, if the Aerospace Forces close the Nikolaev Varvarovsky Bridge, then the Armed Forces of Ukraine will really have a hard time. And so, they carry through it what they want and when they want ...

  Here you are right, it is better by the coast to Odessa, after Nikolaev, and from two sides. On Zatoka near the Dniester (west of Odessa), the landing force is not small, with access to Transnistria and the coverage of Odessa from the west. Sofa strategy advises so ...

The journalist himself, unknowingly, spoke about the mediocrity of our generals. If I'm wrong, then in the next 3-4 days there will be our "movement" in this direction.

In an attempt to provide assistance to Ukrainian units in the south of the country, Kyiv initiates the transfer of reserve troops near Nikolaev, which were intended to deter the RF Armed Forces in the event of their landing in the Odessa region. Thus, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are actually “exposing” the Odessa direction for the sake of a counteroffensive near Kherson.

- What kind of "Odessa direction" - it simply does not exist - this direction has not yet been formed - there are no military operations there yet - Nikolaev has not yet been taken (and even - not attacked by the RF Armed Forces - sometimes only one-time, very rare shelling is carried out)!
- Yes, and ... and ... and Russia agreed to some "strange manipulations" with the "circulation of dry cargo ships with grain products" in this region! - And now Russia will simply break into a cake - but it won’t even give a hint - to suspect it (Russia) of trying to storm Odessa from the sea (and even fire from the sea)! - All the same, the Armed Forces of Ukraine will shell Odessa themselves and blame Russia for this - but that's another story! - And the RF Armed Forces cannot storm Odessa from the land side, because. Nikolaev has not yet been taken!
- So the RF Armed Forces simply need (as soon as possible) - to form strike forces and begin the assault on Nikolaev! - And leaving the Donbas direction for now is a waste of people, resources and time! - In general, the assault on Donbass is just a "setup" that the Armed Forces of Ukraine prepared for the RF Armed Forces! - The assault on well-fortified Donbas positions is what the Armed Forces of Ukraine sought from the RF Armed Forces! - There is simply no need for this - after all, when Nikolaev and Odessa are liberated - it will simply become pointless to hold a well-fortified Donbass region for the Armed Forces of Ukraine - it will simply be isolated (both on the right and left sides of the Dnieper) and will cease to be supplied and by itself will not last long ! - It's just not clear why our command "led" to storm the Donbass fortified region - is it such a waste of people, resources and time ???
