An hour-long truce. The war in Karabakh takes on a completely different character

99

The war in Nagorno-Karabakh has entered its final phase. I would say that military actions did not show anything original. A predictable war with a predictable result in general and unpredictable due to the actions of one of the leaders of the opposing sides. Moreover, today one can already feel a certain aloofness of the leading world powers from this war. Duty calls for negotiations, duty deep regrets, duty words of support.

Why am I so sure that the war has entered its final phase? Yes, simply because the hostilities have acquired the character of a strategic confrontation with the use of heavy weapons. Rockets, large-caliber artillery, flamethrower systems and MLRS are precisely the indicator of the transition from tactical schemes to strategic plans and operations.



Changing the nature of war


I will not talk about which mountain, pass, village or valley one or another side captured. First, no one has precise data on specific battles along the entire front line. And I have no access to the means of objective control. And secondly, today the advances and retreats of the sides are no longer particularly important. The war was different.

The superiority of Azerbaijan, its preparation for war, the accumulation of resources and the development of strategic plans for the operation are obvious even to non-professionals. Armenia was preparing for the last war. This is evidenced by well-equipped engineering structures in the security zone. The strategy of the Armenian army was to prevent the enemy from entering the territory of Karabakh.

After the defense was broken, the Armenians found themselves in a difficult position. Remember the shots of the destruction of artillery, tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and other objects drones Azerbaijani army? Didn't you have a strange feeling of complete disregard of the commanders of the Armenian army for elementary things for any military, like camouflaging an object?

It is clear when a car, tank, armored vehicle, self-propelled guns are on the march. Given the terrain, it is really difficult to mask such objects. Therefore, the defeat of tanks or infantry fighting vehicles looks logical. What about artillery positions that are not masked? What is the attitude to the tent cities of the Armenian army, which simply attract the eyes of the enemy?

According to the information that both sides are spreading about the losses of the opposing side, both armies have already lost a huge amount of equipment, weapons and personnel. It is clear that these data cannot be trusted. And the parties do not talk about their losses. But according to what is shown in the agitation of the parties, it can be concluded that the losses of Armenians are significantly higher than the losses of Azerbaijanis.

So, in order to understand what is happening now, it is necessary to remind the goals of this war for both sides. Azerbaijan wants to liberate its own lands, which Armenia has turned into the security zone of Artsakh. And, continuing the offensive in case of successful completion of the first task, liberate the entire territory of the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Region. At the same time, Baku is not going to cross the border of Armenia, so as not to provoke retaliatory measures from Russia.

Armenia is trying with all its might to preserve the Armenian Artsakh and those seven regions of Azerbaijan, which make up the security zone. Legally, Armenia is not right in this situation. But this does not stop anyone in Yerevan. Over the years that have passed since the end of the previous war, the Armenians have become accustomed to the idea that Karabakh, albeit unrecognized even by their state, is Armenian. And the occupied regions of Azerbaijan also belong to Artsakh.

What is written above are common truths that are repeated daily in different media. But one very important task for the Azerbaijani army follows from them. Locals! Yes, those who today consider this land theirs. Those who once conquered it in battles.

It was the fulfillment of this task that changed the nature of the war. Many have noticed the fact how methodically, but at the same time, artillery works out in the villages and towns of the NKR. One or two shots, destruction or damage to a building with minimal casualties among the population, and silence. The next day the situation repeats itself. At the same time, no progress of the Azerbaijani army is observed.

What for? When analyzing the balance of forces of the parties, it becomes clear that no heroism and staunchness of the fighters of the armies of Armenia and Artsakh will stop the Azerbaijani army if it starts an offensive. The infrastructure allows Baku to transfer units quickly enough. The enemy does not have such an opportunity. But the offensive begins only after certain events in the village.

And this event is the evacuation of most of the civilian population! Baku is deliberately delaying the offensive, ensuring the exit of the civilian population from the combat zone. Humanism? Hardly. From those frames and those reports that break through the information blockade, one can draw a conclusion about rather dirty methods of warfare. But we will know for sure about this only after the end of hostilities.

Everything seems to me to be much more complicated and simpler. Baku does not need those civilians who live there now. Firstly, it is the overwhelming majority of Armenians, who in any case will maintain ties with their compatriots, which means, quite possibly, will become a breeding ground for a possible partisan movement in the NGO.

Secondly, Armenians living in NKR today occupy lands and houses that once belonged to Azerbaijanis. It is clear that after the victory of Baku, those who were once expelled from their land will return and drive out the invaders. Therefore, there are no guarantees that this will not result in another massacre. Mutual hatred reached its climax in this war.

So, what is the character of the war in Karabakh today? This is a war not only and not so much for the territory of Karabakh as for the cleansing of these territories from the Armenians living there. This is a war for the settlement of the autonomous region with Azerbaijanis and the final solution of the NKR issue in this way.

Incomprehensible actions of Yerevan


Most of us are convinced that an external enemy always contributes to the consolidation of the nation, which ultimately leads the nation to victory. At the same time, we forget the second result of this consolidation. The nation either wins or dies! Alas, this fact cannot be denied. It all depends on the enemy the nation is currently fighting against.

Yerevan today is stubbornly pushing the Armenian state towards self-destruction. They understand that the war has been lost. As well as the fact that the continuation of this massacre will lead to senseless losses and complete destabilization of the country's economy. I'm not even talking about the deaths of many young people necessary for the country.

The option of ending the war through negotiations was quite acceptable to both sides. A truce, the transfer of the bodies of the dead and the exchange of prisoners, in parallel negotiations on the division of Karabakh. Yes, Yerevan would have to give not only seven regions of Azerbaijan, but some part of Karabakh, but receive in return peace and the rest of Artsakh. Moreover, Baku, as it seems to me, would even go to recognize this part of Armenia.

But what happened after the meeting of the foreign ministers in Moscow? An hour-long truce! .. And new, even more fierce battles. Battles that practically deprive Armenia of any chances of keeping at least part of Artsakh under its control. Yes, today you can argue about who broke the truce. But, as it seems to me, no one needs it anymore. Both sides are convinced that the enemy did it. And it will be almost impossible to convince them.

I think that if there is political will on both sides, one can find the culprit for the breakdown of the agreement with the help of objective means of control, and Russia has enough such means in this region. In this case, both the USA and China could share the data of their satellites.

I did not want to raise the topic of relations between modern Armenia and Russia during the war. But what the Prime Minister of Armenia is doing today causes indignation to such an extent that it is simply impossible to keep silent about it. In an effort to change the country's political course, the government is going to outright kill its citizens in this war. Instead of making every effort to end the bloodshed.

Conclusion. To be continued


For several days I heard talk about downed attack aircraft, about attacks by attack aircraft under the cover of Turkish F-16s. The experts argued, quoted from various sources. The feeling was that the two states were participating in different wars. Armenians shoot down a plane, planes are being used on them, and Azerbaijanis say that they have planes in hangars.

Is it difficult to ask military pilots? Asking if there are idiots among aviation commanders of Azerbaijan, who in such a terrain and with such saturation of air defense would order their pilots to carry out raids? Drones do a great job with this.

What's next? Not in the sense of information stuffing, but in general about the war between Armenia and Azerbaijan. Then Baku will bring the situation to its logical end. Will squeeze the civilian population out of NGOs. Will grind the army of Artsakh and Armenia with long-range artillery and drones. And as the civilian population leaves for Armenia, liberates the territory, the Azerbaijani army will occupy the villages and cities of Karabakh.

Armenia's resources will melt before our eyes. The country will rapidly become poorer and eventually turn into a kind of Ukraine. There are many ambitions in the absence of opportunities to realize them. Continuing the course of Europeanizing the country and rejecting an alliance with Russia is precisely this path.

And again Russia will be in charge of the situation. Or won't it? ..

    I'm afraid it won't ...

    Russia is so confused in its "a lot of vector politics", expressed in incomprehensible tricks with Turkey in Syrian Idlib, to the detriment of the territorial integrity of the SAR, now there is a" significant silence "about the actions of Turkey and Azerbaijan with the transfer of militants to the borders of the Russian Federation.
    And Armenia, with its "Soros" as a member of the CSTO is important, but at the same time remains without tangible support ...

      Probably already settling.

      At the moment we have a pro-American Armenia.

      To turn the tide, remove Pashinyan and install a pro-Russian president, it was decided to give carte blanche to Aliyev for the annexation of Karabakh, because his loss will inevitably cause a severe drop in Pashinyan's rating.

      Everything was also agreed with Erdogan, we have an order of magnitude more interests in Turkey than in Armenia.

      From the point of view of world legislation, Azerbaijanis are in their own right.
      Militarily, they are better prepared.
      Even the Jews are on the side of Azerbaijan, it says a lot. lol

      Globally, Russia doesn't care about its Karabakh, so that everything is going according to plan.

      I sincerely hope that it won't! For once, Russia has finally begun to act according to the precepts and patterns of the old woman of England .. To put the limitrophe in its place with hands and at the expense of another limitrophe! Aerobatics! Armenia itself is to blame for everything, sitting on two chairs at the same time spitting in the hand that feeds it and shitting at the door of those who defend it .. All this Nazism performed by the Armenian diaspora in Russia received a worthy response. How many times has Russia saved these underprivileged peoples and what did it receive in return? Here we are. now everything will be different, namely, "There are no permanent allies and enemies, but there are permanent interests of the great Russia" .. They wanted Russia to become "civilized" and so they got it .. And how many interesting things for such cunning invented people are yet to come .. Others need the same to think hard ..

      For the third time, Russia will not rock the boat for Armenia, although Lavrov is an ethnic Armenian from Georgia! The Kremlin's position is as simple and cynical as a mooing - at first, the loyal Ars will remind Pashinyan and his fellows for the loss of territories and will bring to power those with whom the Kremlin was more comfortable. They will discuss the future of Armenia and Karabakh with them. On the external fronts, both republics are not expected to succeed. Everyone sympathizes with the Armenians, but helps them mainly morally. Because of its friendship with the "Turkish Sultan", Azerbaijan has the same reputation as a trample on the high road. But thanks to the resources and support of the Turkish Chingiz Khaimah It is easier for Baku oil workers and conquerors of bazaars. So about a clever thing - if anyone read the story in childhood, he should know that all that land was conquered by Russia from Persia back in the 19th century. Then the writer Gribedov died, the author of "Woe from Wit" who was a diplomat by job! This is a hairpin for those victims of the exam who believe that the Russians have nothing to do there! For some reason, the United States does not disdain the islands of Micronesia, which are thousands of kilometers away from them and have set up their possessions there plus a nuclear burial ground! Not to mention other territories. The Small-Brits did not hesitate to start a war for the Falkland Islands, even if they lost the Sheffield destroyer with nuclear weapons there. And the Falklands are from London, oh, how farther than Karabakh is from Moscow! Conclusion - if you want to be better, do it yourself! That is, this territory should belong to Russia!

        At first, the loyal Ars will punish Pashinyan and his fellows for the loss of territories and will bring those with whom the Kremlin was more convenient to power. The future of Armenia and Karabakh will be discussed with them.


        When Azerbaijan not only officially owns NK, but actually settles its people there, there will be no point in discussing anything .. Armenia will not return anything back under any pretext ..

    Let Armenia and Azerbaijan sort it out on their own. Armenians did not support Russia with Crimea. They squeezed out from Armenia not only Russian business, but also the business of Russian Armenians. Leading pro-Russian politician Robert Kocheryan was imprisoned. Armenian media and social networks pour mud on Russia every hour. The Armenians are hiding on their territory and are not handing over anti-Russian leaders to Russia. Well, what for is this, if one may say so, Russia's "ally" surrendered (the only allies in this region are sitting at the Russian base in Gyumri)? They did not help us in any way and do not want to help, why should Russia fit in for them, and perhaps with the lives of its soldiers? What did Armenia give Russia to do this?
    As for the war in Karabakh, in 30 years, the Armenians could build concrete pillboxes, like on the Mannerheim line, and underground shelters for equipment, and judging by the footage from their places on the front line, there are bedbugs made of cinder blocks with a thin layer of earth, tires from tire fitting and holes dug in the ground for vehicles instead of cover. No cover from the threat from above, not even a primitive camouflage - all the equipment is in plain sight and the drones crack them like nuts for breakfast. Moreover, the air defense consists of the decommissioned OSA-AKM purchased in Jordan by Pashinyan.

      Completely in agreement with you! We don't need to go there ... There is one problem ... The Trans-Adriatic gas pipeline has been completed. And Azerbaijani gas will not be enough to recoup it. It is necessary to pull the siphon from Turkmenistan across the Caspian. Therefore, NATO wants to build a base in Azerbaijan to protect the gas pipeline. Turkish base. Iran is very much against it, because it is afraid that the US will use this base to organize an attack on it. And most of the Turkmen gas is contracted by China. If you and I do not defend the agreement on the division of the Caspian, then it will be covered with a copper basin, and Lukoil has opened a new oil province in our part of the Caspian.

I am more than sure that almost all the defeat of technology in caponiers is educational films of the times of "Tsar Pea", and not real military actions. Still, the Armenian officers have good training and experience in fighting and I would not consider them idiots who cannot even organize camouflage. These films show that these are all fakes.

    Dear Author, Your analysis, to my deep regret, is not based on facts. Therefore, your conclusions, to put it mildly, are controversial ...
    First, the strategic task of Azerbaijan to limit the combat zone of the NKR proper failed miserably. The Azerbaijani army had to hunt pu otrk on the territory of Armenia.
    https://rusvesna.su/news/1602658488
    Armenia has already found itself drawn into the conflict.
    Secondly, I'm tired of writing about it, find Talysh, Madangiz, Martakert and Tartar on the map. A quick glance at the map is enough to understand that Talysh is a "donut hole". There is no way for Azerbaijan to keep it.
    Thirdly, all the commentators were impressed by the breakthrough of Azerbaijanis in the south ... How then can one explain the reversal of the direction of the strike on the command “round” - to Hadrut and Fizuli, if not by throwing in a cauldron?
    From the above it follows that the planned blitzkrieg failed, and the General Staff of Azerbaijan was forced to improvise.
    As for the war of the "XXI century" ... Sorry, but war is not a Hollywood movie. If a tank would post every shot on its instogram, it is not yet known who would have won this Eurovision song contest by likes.

      Business as usual in war. They are looking for a weak spot in the enemy's defense.

      This is not an indicator of weakness, but of professionalism.

                  You do not know the plan of the military command of Azerbaijan. And I don’t know.

                  Maybe they wanted to liberate 7 districts in three days, or maybe they reasoned "we will not set goals, as they trample on them)".

      Dear nobody75, with all due respect to you, but you are writing nonsense.
      Please do not be offended, you just do not have enough knowledge. Alas, not being a professional soldier and not being able to read a map, not knowing the peculiarities of the territory where the hostilities are taking place, you make erroneous and high-flown conclusions. The so-called blitzkrieg.What in Chechnya, Iraq, In Syria, the armies much stronger did not do the blitzkrieg, and here you have sofa strategists who do not have military education, constant arguments were made whether the blitzkrieg was successful or not. You wrote in one of your comments about the fact that in Azerbaijan there are no Guderians and now write about some kind of cauldron in which the Azerbaijani army is mosque because of the fact that it went to Hadrut))) You do not have a detailed map, but you argue about what was successful and what was not. To understand the actions of the army, you need to know the strategic plan and what features Hadrut is the most important defense center since the times of sovereignty in the southern direction. There was a fortified area of ​​border guards, from the heights of Hadrut you can see not only The Jabrayil region but also far and the north of Iran. From these heights Fizuli is also completely controlled. In the first war, Azerbaijani forces were never able to approach Hadrut. In this war, no settlements are important, how many heights and roads. Until Hadrut was taken, was the danger of the Armenian army breaking through towards Horadiz in order to encircle parts of the first corps. Continuing the offensive towards Gubadli and Zangelan, as you, being a genius commander, suggested, was very risky and rather suicidal, since communications would stretch out and the flanks would be constantly under the threat of strikes. In principle, the Armenians They tried to carry out this kind of operation, but the column advancing to Goradiz for encirclement was met and defeated. The capture of Hadrut and the heights provided a flank and removed the danger over Jabrayil. In addition, the position of the Armenian army in Fizuli made the position of the Armenian army almost hopeless and therefore they had already left most of their positions and fled. the heights around Hadrut are strategically important.
      I advise you to buy a detailed map of the area where the war is taking place and mark the occupied positions of the Azerbaijani army on the map with red flags. To understand why the Azerbaijanis Fizuli and Mardakert did not attack the LLB, you need to know what fortifications and tunnels have been built there in 30 years. As for the north, the heights over Ialysh and the southern slopes of Madagiz made it possible to reach Agdera from the Kalbajar side, the Kalbajer-Agdere road was blocked. The Agderi mountain range has one road left to Martuni and this road can be blocked by the advancing units from Hadrut. Then the Agdam fortified area will be doomed.
      The Azerbaijani army is very professional and competent in this case. It does not matter at this stage how many forced settlements are liberated, the heights and roads are important. By the way, the author noted a lot, but there are also bloopers, mainly from not having enough information, and especially the fact that Azerbaijan would agree to transfer Karabakh to Armenia - this is a red line, it would be impossible.

        My Dear, Highly Professional Friend! Without waiting for the card, as a "couch strategist" I will try to comprehend your message. The points.
        What in Chechnya, Iraq, Syria, armies much stronger did not blitzkrieg

        In Chechnya, Iraq, Syria, the armies were involved in police operations. I hope you understand the difference between a war and a police operation? In Iraq, I mean the second campaign. After Saddam was long and tediously pickled with sanctions, his generals were bought in bulk and the local population, especially the Kurds, were seduced.
        As far as the First Gulf War is concerned, Desert Storm is a perfectly valid hammer and anvil blitzkrieg. With a deep raid of armored divisions and the landing of tactical troops.
        Next, the next point
        Hadrut has been the most important defense center since the times of sovereignty in the southern direction. There was a fortified area of ​​border guards, from the heights of Gadrut you can see not only the entire Jabrail region but also far and northern Iran.

        Have you already got it?
        When did the border guards have fortified areas? Moreover, those that the army corps is able to shackle for a week? If you knew about this in the Politburo, they would have approved the plan of Aliyev the Elder. I remember he offered Iran to fight ... With the aim of reuniting the divided Azerbaijani people ... I did not know that you have "brothers" in Turkey ...
        Until Hadrut was taken, there was a danger of a breakthrough by the Armenian army towards Horadiz in order to encircle parts of the first corps. danger of blows.

        I confess I am very ashamed ... I have to reveal to you a terrible secret. All the NKR defense forces at the beginning of the next series of the Karabakh Franchise consisted of an incomplete motorized rifle division! What forces would they have struck at Horadiz? All they can do is cut your communications and slowly cook the pot ... which is what they do. And I have a map with "flags", thanks for the advice.

          1.In Soviet times, there were fortified areas of border guards.
          2. There were 4 divisions in the NKR army and they are part of the Armenian army and it is really a shame not to know this.
          4. Only in the Jabrayil region, the 18th division was concentrated on the side.
          Well, it's not enough to write nonsense of the NKR army no, it's part of the Armenian army. 80 percent of the NKR army consists of 4 divisions, conscripts from Armenia. Not knowing all this and drawing conclusions is really a shame
          On October 7-8, the forces of a separate corps made an attempt to cut off and encircle the Azerbaijani forces. In the area of ​​the village of Goradiz, the Armenian units were defeated, as well as the 18th division at Dzhabrail.

            My dear friend, please read what a fortified area is.
            Fortified area, fortified area, SD - an area of ​​terrain equipped in engineering terms for defense, a defense line in the form of resistance nodes of long-term fortified positions that are in interaction and form a common group (tens of kilometers of engineering structures, various obstacles, controlled and uncontrolled minefields)
            Yes, all of Karabakh can hardly be called a fortified region! Please read the Soviet Military Encyclopedia, it will be useful, take pity on the soldiers and their mothers.
            There were 4 divisions in the NKR army and they are part of the Armenian army and it is really a shame not to know this.
            This was in 1994 ... And in 2020, one division was deployed there along the line of contact. Otherwise, you would be afraid to attack.
            Only in Jabrayil region, the 18th division was concentrated on the side.
            Excuse me, can you confirm this with the testimony of the prisoners? Sorry, I forgot, you put them in the Armenian flag and against the wall ...

      It was not possible to limit the zone of the DB, because the Azerbaijani UAVs are diving over Armenia as if at home. Outstanding Armenian Success. The Azerbaijanis took Talysh, which "there is no way to keep it." Even hold back. And they took him. Here the Armenians won in the square. The reversal of the direction of the strike can be explained by the fact that the Azerbaijanis are trying to lock themselves in the cauldron of Armenians) And yes, war is not a movie, here it is not very effective to play with words and close-ups.
      Armenia is a weak economy, incomparable with an offended neighbor. A positional war will destroy it in a matter of months, as the author writes. Of course, Azerbaijan would not dare to attack a country friendly to Russia. No way, Aliyev is clever. But Armenia spat and shit in the outstretched hand of friendship, for which it is naturally paying off now. This is an indisputable fact.

    ... Yes, Yerevan would have to give not only seven regions of Azerbaijan, but some part of Karabakh, but receive in return peace and the rest of Artsakh. Moreover, Baku, it seems to me, would even go to recognize this part of Armenia.

    When people seem to have a classic recommendation.
    Why would Azerbaijan recognize the loss of a part of its territory?
    Azerbaijan will continue to put pressure on the Armenians, even if this company ends, it will not be the last.
    Someone will move out, someone will stay to live
    But Azerbaijan did not recognize Karabakh as Armenian even in more unfortunate years for it.

      There is no friendship and cooperation, it's true. But there is an influence, and a huge one. In proportion to the army, GDP and territory, as well as geostrategic position. But Moscow only provided a platform for its blood-thirsty neighbors. So as not to fight right at the negotiating table.
      The time for peace has not yet come, and attempts to conclude it are useless. Only a massive invasion of the USSR Armed Forces would help, and not Brezhnev's, but Stalin's ones, that is, with huge losses on both opposing sides. So that the thirst for blood in them would be quiet. And then the NKVD should begin the systematic shooting of war criminals, various field commanders and preachers.

    Well, just a problem, from the word "absolutely", has no solution. War wakes up until one of the belligerent parties is completely exhausted, and one of the parties is completely defeated and degraded.
    Here, and now I will express a seditious proposal - only the merger of Armenia and Azerbaijan into a single state can avoid large losses, both in people and in material resources. No, of course, mutual hostility and clashes on domestic grounds will not go anywhere, but this will remove the territorial issue, remove the military component, transfer the conflict to an internal state, and both peoples will receive additional "buns" from the merger. Something like that....

      They merged twice and the Georgians took part in the merging. They fled in both cases. And after the collapse of the USSR, they fled even more. The Georgians "love" Ossetians and Abkhazians very much, they reciprocate. They tolerate Azerbaijanis, but they are better than Armenians. Azerbaijanis, tolerate Georgians and "love" Armenians very much. The Armenians seem to "love" both those and others very much. Although, if we discard mutual "love" and merge for the third time, it would be pretty good, for all the peoples of Transcaucasia, in the economic plan. But ... the trouble is that that when merging, Azerbaijan will become a donor for Georgia and Armenia. Perhaps this will suit the elite of the former and the latter, but not the elite of Azerbaijan. Condo nationalism in Transcaucasia prevents the creation of such a federation.

    What happened was what should have happened - without their own ideology, the people turn into a crowd, an okhlos that is easy to manipulate. It is not difficult to predict that exactly the same will soon happen in Belarus, and in the Donbass, and possibly even in the Crimea. We desperately need our own, built on a modern scientific base, state. ideology, moreover, post-materialistic ideology. The materialistic worldview inevitably leads to neoliberalism and further to Satanism, gives rise to egocentrism, consumer psychology and the atomization of society.

    1. Azerbaijan does not need a truce. They aim to capture (liberate) the entire Karabakh. Stopping on a small piece is a thin mess.

    2. The forceful outcome of the operation is obvious. The question is whether Azerbaijan will pull out a long bloody war politically. At a certain level of losses among the citizens of Azerbaijan, problems will begin. Unless, after the destruction of all Armenian heavy weapons, only imported militants will suffer further losses.

    ... but Armenia is not so simple, if for so many centuries it has been keeping in its territory despite being surrounded by hostile states.
    Present Armenia did not exist until the Russian Empire conquered the Transcaucasus. The Armenians lost their statehood during the reign of King Peas, after which they became a tumbleweed in the Middle East, so that nothing but "blah-blah" and the tales of the Hayevs did not hold on for centuries, and simply could not hold on. At the moment, without Russia, Armenia is nothing in every sense, not only in the military sense, but they have forgotten it, apparently believing in their own fairy tale that Armenia has been holding out for eleven centuries.
    But this is all the lyrics.

    And now about life, or rather death. To date, only the officially recognized casualties of Armenia are 555 people. As we understand, the real losses are much and much higher. Taking into account the other part of the losses due to serious injuries, it was once said - no eyes, arms, legs, etc., plus moderate injuries, a catastrophic number of servicemen left the Armenian Armed Forces. The mobilization is total, practically the last reserves within Armenia itself have been mobilized, the leadership of Armenia and the puppet NKR are already forced to publicly admit the severity of the losses, and already persistently appeal to the foreign diaspora with calls for volunteers.

    The leadership of Armenia, assessing the scale of the offensive and the nature of the battles, at the beginning realized that it had outplayed it in provocation and, among other things, itself created favorable conditions for the start of a full-scale war by Azerbaijan. Realizing the limitedness of its reserves and the loss of the situation, the leadership of Armenia made a decision and from the first days it chose the tactics of inflicting massive strikes on frontline settlements, with the gradual transfer of fire deep into the territory of the population, in order to provoke panic and discontent among the civilian population. Despite significant destruction and casualties, the tactics of the Armenian leadership did not justify themselves, they began to raise the stakes, the large-caliber MLRS Smerch, OTRK Elbrus and Tochka-U were used. The strategic infrastructure facilities of Azerbaijan were under attack, including the dam of the Mingechevir reservoir and the Azerbaijan State District Power Plant, which generates more than half of the electricity in Azerbaijan. Attempts to get from the MLRS Smerch were unsuccessful. The next step was a strike with an Elbrus (Scud) OTRK missile on Ganja, perhaps they tried to get at the Ganja airport, as they claim, but the fact remains that they hit the residential area, fortunately there were fewer casualties and destruction than could have been. All that I am listing is already MILITARY CRIMES, we played with this phrase so much that we ceased to understand the semantic load, to realize all the gravity of guilt for such actions. According to the logic of the criminal, it would be worth hiding at least for a while, because the Armenian side, represented by the political and military leadership, claimed that it did not strike at Ganja with the help of the OTRK and, in general, not a single bullet, not a single shell was fired from the territory of Armenia in the direction of Azerbaijan. In principle, I could, at the worst, with the least losses for myself, get out of this situation in which I got stuck with a blow to Ganja and attempts to hit the infrastructure.
    However, the situation is so original that Armenia decides to try again. Apparently, they tried to strike with several loyalty rockets either at the dam or at the state district power station in Mingechaur. In any case, this would lead to numerous casualties among the civilian population, the count would go to tens of thousands, and to a major environmental disaster. Of course, Azerbaijan expected such a blow, especially after the first attempts, but let's not overestimate its capabilities, the reconnaissance and target designation drone, shock drones were not accidentally in this area. A catastrophe of such a scale that Pashinyan and the leadership of the Armenian Ministry of Defense NEEDED ANYONE, many do not understand, but this is real trash, which all the more could lead to retaliatory actions and even greater trouble. Only one country could provide reliable information on the Armenian Armed Forces and its plans, and apparently it promptly and in advance passed it to Azerbaijan, I will not specify, you can guess which one. As a result, at night and in the morning, Azerbaijan struck twice on the positions of the deployed OTRK of the Armenian Armed Forces, frustrating Pashinyan's plans and, in the course of his owners, who decided to raise the stakes. But they also caught Pashinyan and the Armenian Defense Ministry by the hand, presenting clear evidence of their criminal actions and intentions. I will repeat once again, many simply played with tanchiki and sometimes they cannot understand reality, cannot assess the scale of that disaster by the result of the actions that the current leadership of Armenia planned to commit.

    In total, there was the 18th day of the war, not the third, not the fourth month, but in Armenia there is already a catastrophic situation. According to the info that I have from friends, not only are the irrecoverable losses high, but also the strongest failure in medicine, in ensuring the timeliness of assistance, in the quality of evacuation - the percentage of the wounded passing from one category to another (minor injury, moderate, severe) is just huge.

    If everything continues in the same spirit, then if the days of the Armenian Armed Forces are not numbered, then at least they will not be able to conduct battles of the same intensity in a week - 10 days. How it will end and a no brainer.

    I read a cheap article. such a feeling that the author feeds from Baku. that for the letter predictions about the Karabakh army. a couple of posts is not a victory yet. such a courageous defense after the Second World War has not yet been. you do not forget the population of Azerbaijan is 3 times larger than Armenia. plus a few thousands and they say about 5000 militants and plus Turkish special forces and soldiers. the ratio is 1: 4 or 1: 5. strong support for weapons by Turkey. Israel. Pakistan and Afghanistan. and we Russians just express concern. the next target will be Russia

    The Armenian state should itself solve its problems with the Azerbaijani state, if any of them wins or loses, Russia has no gesheft that Armenians, that Azerbaijanis equally hate Russians.

    Well written. Unfortunately, Armenia no longer evokes the same sense of belonging as it did before. The Russian government's rusophobia has played a role. The war has become indifferent for Russians.

    Another thing is striking. Honestly, it doesn't matter who wins or loses. The cruelty with which the warriors treat each other is striking. They scoff at the fallen, finish off the wounded. Inhumans. Not warriors, but Neanderthals without honor and conscience ... Such "allies" as Armenians, and neighbors Azerbaijanis, God forbid ... Worse enemies !!!
