Expert: It is strategically advantageous for the Russian Armed Forces to conduct battles with militants in border areas

19

The intensity of clashes between Ukrainian militants and the Russian Armed Forces in the Belgorod and Kursk directions has decreased somewhat over the past couple of days. After the election of the Russian President, the severity of the battles predictably dropped, writes blogger Yuri Podolyaka.

At the same time, terrorists are still trying take control any populated area on Russian territory, but their actions are strictly suppressed. Kyiv is also making attempts to fetter the actions of the Russian Armed Forces and force the Russian side to transfer formations from other areas of the special operation, where the Armed Forces of Ukraine are suffering heavy losses.



At the same time, the militants are opposed by groups of the Russian Armed Forces, which have a considerable number of conscripts. Russian troops are displacing the enemy without entering the territory of Ukraine, since conscripts do not take part in the Northern Military District. Without achieving its goals, the Kiev regime continues to launch artillery strikes on the regions of Kursk and Belgorod, forcing civilians to leave populated areas.

At the same time, our air forces and artillery also carry out counter fire strikes, hitting identified enemy artillery systems and places where personnel gather

- writes an expert.

In general, Podolyaka believes, such battles are strategically beneficial for the Russian Armed Forces, since the enemy suffers heavy losses and stretches its reserves.

From a military point of view, this battle is strategically beneficial for us, but very harmful for the enemy (although the village of Kozinka has already been virtually turned into ruins). The losses that he suffers here are unjustifiably high, and we, by repelling him with those units that do not take an active part in the Northern Military District, are thus stretching his reserves and inflicting significant losses on them

he thinks.

    Strategically, it is necessary to occupy the Ukrainian border strip with a depth of 20-30 km, on the offensive site of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, thereby protecting the territory of the Russian Federation from destruction and giving an example of what awaits the next time they try to attack the territory of the Russian Federation. Act with clear examples, then we will have the initiative, and do not expect further tests and provocations from the enemy, acting only in defense. Conclusion: victory cannot be achieved by defense alone.

      The meaning of the comment is different - In repelling an attack on the “old” territory of the Russian Federation, it is allowed to use conscripts. Which, as a bonus to service, receive real combat experience without entering the air defense zone.
      In general, the message of the article is correct - you need to be able to take advantage of any situation.

        The weather is also in our favor. We are not in the south of Ukraine, where the soil is already dry or almost dry. We are in the process of defrosting the land on which you can’t move much. Besides, there is rain. Now serious movement is only possible on asphalt, and of course you can fly by helicopter. So, for now, we can defend ourselves with limited forces. And then we’ll see what the General Staff has planned.

          What do you mean, we have to attack: in the spring and autumn - mud interferes, in the summer - heat and greenery, in the winter - frosts. Inflict additional blows on the Ukrainian Reich from its territory through the Kursk, Belgorod regions and from the territory of Belarus, but you can’t do that, for this you need to use additional troops, and where can you get them, because there is a circular from above - conscripts should not be used. Announcing a second wave of mobilization is a blow to the image. So we have what we have - a theater of the absurd, and you say - let's see what the General Staff has planned.

    Maybe we should lure them deep into the territory and wait until winter so that they themselves freeze out?
    These experts are ready to justify any idiocy and mediocrity of the command

    In principle, Podolyaka is right, during such attacks on our borders, Bandera’s supporters move far forward and then our artillery, helicopters, and planes meet them with hurricane fire. The Banderaites cannot get help. We cannot attack now due to the impassable mud. Some couch potatoes are impatient and demand an attack. It’s impossible, Bandera’s people are waiting for us to rush forward. We don't have enough combat-ready troops there.

    I just want to ask, is the fact that the Ukrainian Armed Forces began shelling half of Russia not beneficial for our Defense Ministry? By the way, this was essentially shown by Prof. the unsuitability of the leadership of our Defense Ministry for waging a modern war. They only know how to catch up, and not look ahead, and therefore such results.

      Are you serious about the fact that they can catch up? Why then haven’t they caught up yet?

    What a pity that he personally is not in strategically advantageous territories where the fighting is taking place!

    And it would be even more strategically advantageous to lure the Ukrainian Armed Forces 500-1000 kilometers deep into Russian territory, and then, taking advantage of the enemy’s logistical difficulties, defeat him on the Volzhsky or Ural defensive lines.
    Yes, I’m making fun of you, but I’m sure that this is roughly how our (and not quite our) “experts” would explain the next regrouping. No matter what happens, everything always goes and will go according to plan. By the way, I appreciate that there are plans in the near future - cancellation of the parade at the last moment, due to the impossibility of guaranteeing protection of Red Square from an air attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

      The same thought sits in my head when I heard about the next parade.

    The expert can only say that the constant shelling of Belgorod is part of another “multi-prong”, because despite the daily stories from the zombie box about detection and destruction, the shelling of Russian territory does not stop. Perhaps it is necessary to hit back in such a way that the opponent subsequently begins to fight uncontrollably at the mere thought of committing a terrorist attack?

      But as ? No matter what factory you hit them with nothing. Now, if a nuclear charge were detonated high above Kiev, but it would not hurt, but only glass would fly out all over Kyiv, then this would be a real warning. Well, then, since there would be an electromagnetic pulse, it would be possible to attack the Kyiv bridges with ton bombs.
