Russian Ministry of Defense: Ukraine is preparing an invasion of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Transnistria

February 24 2023

The Russian Ministry of Defense published another material, which refers to the plans of the Kyiv regime for the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic. Earlier, the Russian Defense Ministry pointed to the receipt of intelligence that the Ukrainian regime is preparing a provocation, under which militants dressed in Russian military uniforms will enter the territory of Ukraine, as if from the side of Transnistria - under the guise of Russian troops. The ministry said it was monitoring the situation.

Some time ago, the ministry published a material stating that Ukraine was preparing an invasion of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Transnistria.
From the material:

In Ukraine, they are going to present this as a response to the alleged offensive of the Russian army from Transnistria.

It is said that the Russian intelligence records the accumulation of not only the personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, but also military equipment near the Ukrainian-Pridnestrovian section of the border. The deployment of Ukrainian artillery was also noted. There was also an increase in the number of flights aviation Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the area of the mentioned border.

Defense Department of the Russian Federation:

The implementation of the planned provocation by the Ukrainian authorities poses a direct threat to the Russian peacekeeping contingent. The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will adequately respond to the impending provocation of the Ukrainian side.

Recall that last week the head of the Moldovan Foreign Ministry demanded to "demilitarize Transnistria and expel Russian troops." And President Maia Sandu asked Joe Biden for military and financial assistance.

The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will adequately respond to the impending provocation of the Ukrainian side.

How exactly? Deep concern? The Russian Federation does not have a land corridor to Transnistria - Surovikin closed it in November last year.
The only way out is, in the event of an invasion of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Transnistria, to bomb all military warehouses with ammunition there with Iskanders or Daggers, about which the Moldovan ambassador in Moscow should be immediately summoned to the Russian Foreign Ministry and notified.

    Only the destruction of warehouses in this case.
    
    According to official data, the arsenal in Kolbasnaya contains 20 tons of weapons and military equipment. And only 2-3 km from the border with Ukraine. The late General Lebed described the risks in 1995 as follows: "2600 wagons of ammunition lie in the warehouse. The capacity of the warehouse has been exceeded by almost 2 times. Approximately 500 wagons of explosives."
    Ammunition is there for the year of the war. Experienced units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are gathering near Pridnestrovie. Especially active since the New Year. Conducted exercises and coordination. Everything that was needed was pulled off, and even a special prize was thrown from near Bakhmut and Donetsk recently. In general, local Russians in the PMR have no options to resist. Therefore, the only choice is to blow up warehouses or give them up without a fight. The most interesting question now is about the situation around a possible attack by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the PMR - did the evacuation of the population go from that same Kolbasnaya and its environs?
    Because if not, then they want to hand over the warehouses to the Ukrainians.

      I am not a specialist in storing power supplies, but 28 years have passed and they were no longer new in 1995 - can they be used? If yes, you just need to blow up the warehouses - when the Armed Forces of Ukraine attack, and that’s all ..

Transnistria and Western Ukraine are the two most likely territories for direct NATO aggression in 2023. Moreover, it is very likely that this will be presented as a joint peacekeeping mission outside NATO of the national armies of Poland and Romania at the call of the legitimate authorities of Moldova and Ukraine. Thus, the enemy will have the opportunity to involve the armies of his satellites in the conflict with Russia, sharply strengthen the Ukrainian Wehrmacht with tanks and military experts, but at the same time not bring the situation to a direct declaration of war and a nuclear apocalypse. Maybe even release our peacekeepers from Transnistria into Russia so that the geopolitical slap in the face is not so shameful and allows the Russian Federation to save face. And do not forget about Nagorno-Karabakh, where our peacekeepers also found themselves between the Azerbaijani hammer and the Armenian anvil.

    Apparently, Transnistria has come to an end. The forces are too unequal The Ukrainians will have about 20 of the most combat-ready bayonets in Transnistria, along with the mobilization of 000-7 thousand. And we missed our chance to reach the borders of Pridnestrovie twice in 8 and in 2014.

      I agree that if the warehouses are blown up, then the inhabitants of Transnistria will only have to escape in bomb shelters. The 20 km zone will be uninhabited for a couple of months. Further shells will arrive less often. They already need to prepare now: bomb shelters, transport, a warning system, doctors, firefighters, and protection against enemy attacks - trenches, reconnaissance drones.

A year after the start of the JMD, most likely, options for the development of events have been developed in the event of aggression against Russian peacekeepers in the PMR by Ukraine. Perhaps the warehouses have long been mined.
Perhaps the opening of a second front is necessary for the Kyiv regime to distract the people of Ukraine from the failures of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the east of the country and to justify the weapons supplied by the United States and NATO members.

  Somehow you don’t have any logic. A year later they were developed .. They should be developed even earlier than the start of the NMD. About the failures of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, in more detail .. They carried out a completely successful offensive six months ago, now they are on the defensive. Moreover, they are quite stable, and our army has not yet can break through the defense to the depth. Are they suffering losses? So this is a war, and they and we are suffering losses. And considerable ones. And why should they justify themselves? And to whom? governments

  There is a peacekeeping contingent of a thousand and a half + self-defense forces of Transnistria, maybe a couple of brigades. And a very, very narrow strip along the river.
  And did they sit idly by ... we'll see tomorrow. I think that the provocation is conceived for tomorrow.

This will be another resounding slap in the face of our army, which, in fact, turned out to be completely helpless to such a development of events.
For those who will harshly minus me, let them give reasons, how can we answer? Let me tell you - absolutely nothing. Our grouping and forces of the PMR are waiting for a complete rout, and very quickly. The forces are simply incomparable and there is nowhere for Pridnestrovie to wait for help.
Air is useless. Even if our attack and fighter aircraft do not fly into the territory of Khokhlo-stan, then getting on a transport plane is no option at all, they will be shot down instantly. And they will also shoot a malicious video at the same time.
By sea - also useless. Not a single BDK or other ship will even come to the coast - it will also be drowned very quickly. The example of "Moscow" showed such possibilities.
On the ground - not even funny. The "heroic adoption of a difficult decision" by the great commander Surovikin left no chance of saving Pridnestrovie.

In any case, it is necessary to destroy all bridges to Bessarabia. I'll clean up. This is the first. Use Dagger if others don't take. Or from an airplane - planning bombs.
If we do this, there will be options. Up to an attack on Bessarabia from the north - through Moldova - on the one hand. From the side of the sea - massive air and sea landing. And let's see what comes of it.

  The decision here is not easy. During fires, projectiles fly several kilometers, and rockets even further. It will turn out as in the proverb "The barn burned down - burn down and the hut" - in this case, the housing stock in Transnistria may also suffer civilians.

  So we don't need ammo? And this is after Prigozhin's statements? The Ministry of Defense should not dump information, but make efforts to seize warehouses and use them in the interests of the RF Ministry of Defense. For example, an airborne assault or a strike by ground forces towards the PMR. Destruction is the last resort, and not the best.

      From Belarus to Transnistria, the shortest route lies through such a small town as Kiev (you can, of course, offer a longer "bypass" Ovruch-Korosten-Zhitomir ... through the only blown up border bridge and a mined lane among the swamps), and the length of the "gut" to Tiraspol, it turns out to count from the entire current front line (and you will have to keep the "gut" on both sides of it). There is verified information that a time machine was created in the Wagner Center and prisoners are being transferred directly from the Gulag, only with such an outfit of forces can this mega-Brusilovsky breakthrough be ensured.

        Then a nuclear strike on Kyiv and Warsaw.
        If this does not suit you, then only one thing: a simultaneous strike from the side of Transnistria to the south - yes, through Moldova, but what to do. And from our side - from the sea - landing.
        Occupy the Bessarabian enclave. Then we will be able to defend Pridnestrovie.

The Transnistrian Republic is not recognized de jure. This is the territory of Moldova. Moldova is asking for military assistance from Ukraine to demilitarize this territory, because the Moldovans themselves are essentially not warriors and do not want to fight. Everything will legally go through the UN. The population of the Transnistrian Republic is somewhere around 450 thousand people - a third are Russians. It is not difficult to guess what will happen to them when the Nazis from Ukraine enter there. Mass genocide of 150 thousand Russians, not counting sympathizers of other nationalities. Two options. Listen to Zakharova, who will express concern about the atrocities of the Nazis and the fuss imitating the activities of the investigating authorities, which will record these acts. Delivering a tactical nuclear strike on Kyiv to sober up drug addict Zelensky. What will Putin choose?
