Voenkor Kharchenko: Ukrainians will launch the main offensive on the southern front

8

Military correspondent Oleksandr Kharchenko believes that the Ukrainians will launch the announced large-scale offensive on the southern front. To do this, they will use the Bakhmut maneuver, which will be their first target, the journalist said in his Telegram channel.

No one doubts that there will be an offensive: they are talking about it policy from high stands. And this will happen very soon, and the first target will be Bakhmut, "incredibly promoted" in the media space.



Now Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is close to losing both the city and its garrison. At the same time, the loss of Bakhmut will hit the rating of the Ukrainian leader even more than the defeat of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Mariupol. Therefore, Ukraine will definitely try to defend the city.

The units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine will not be able to get out of Bakhmut through the narrow neck of the boiler, the reporter notes. Therefore, the Armed Forces of Ukraine will gather “into a fist”, recapture several villages and be able to withdraw their garrison.

The abandonment of the empty Bakhmut will be promoted by a great victory and will rather support the Ukrainian fighting spirit
 
Kharchenko notes.

In response, Russia will be forced to send reinforcements there - this will be demanded by society. And the troops, of course, will go to the aid of the "Wagnerites".

And this is where the Ukrainian army will seize the moment and launch its main offensive on the southern front.

It is the pulling apart of Russian troops that is the main task of the Ukrainian command. Their strategy is based on the fact that Russia reacts too inertly to threats and is simply not capable of defending two directions at the same time. The Ukrainians, of course, will throw all their reserves into this breakthrough, since almost everything is already at stake
 
the journalist concludes.

And the outcome of this spring offensive will determine the policy vector of the leading powers for decades to come. And if the Russian Federation does not survive, then all subsequent scenarios will be bleak.

Meanwhile, military correspondents from under Artemovsk сообщают that the Armed Forces of Ukraine redeployed a large number of military equipment from the Krivoy Rog region to Chasov Yar. Hundreds of tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and light armored vehicles were seen in the vicinity of the city. Obviously, the enemy is preparing to attempt a counterattack and release Artemovsk.

    Bakhmut is a distracting target! Donbass is no longer needed by VSYkam, everyone is against the Nazis there. The main blow will be on Mariupol - cut off the land route, go to the Sea of ​​\uXNUMXb\uXNUMXbAzov and the Crimea!

      There is also a suspicion. It seems to me that Putin wants to restore Mariupol as they once rebuilt the destroyed Grozny. Mariupol will be as an indicator that Russia has created a new and beautiful city from the ruins, and the Nazis need to destroy it so that their fooled people would not see such a fairy tale as before they talked about the Crimea and the bridge. There are two benefits at once, and cut the land corridor and Mariupol, which was rebuilt and restored to destroy.

      Why beat your forehead against the oak gate?
      For curators from NATO, a blow to unprotected areas of Russia is more interesting. The capture of a huge amount of territory and hundreds of thousands of hostages is not the coolest reason for bargaining for the return of Ukrainian territories and indemnities, for "reimbursing the losses of aggression" to Russia? And this is the Crimean bridge and Mariupol, and the whole Crimea (in one bottle). Not to mention global, reputational losses.
      There is a feeling that those on whom the defense capability of the border regions depends are "in the share." How else to understand that even the militia of the local population was forbidden to arm?

        The authorities are terribly afraid of the armed people. Much more than NATO and the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

      he doesn’t seem to be, Kharchenko is one of the most sober-minded military correspondents, unlike those who are tied to propaganda

    If hundreds of equipment means thousands of military personnel, and this is a huge accumulation of both equipment and manpower. And you can somehow smash it to shreds, as, for example, crests can do it when they hit the accumulation of our manpower, on New Year's Eve, where there were a little more soldiers hundreds? Or is it unrealistic, like a fairy tale about unkillable bridges?

    Military commissar Kharchenko is "better aware" of the plans for the offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine than our Gen. headquarters, people love to show off.
