Retired Lieutenant Colonel NM LPR spoke about the attempts of the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to prevent the encirclement of Artemovsk

Fierce fighting for the city of Artemovsk in the DPR continues. Soldiers of PMC "Wagner" are pushing the enemy from the north, east and south. At the same time, the units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, trying to hold the defense, are in operational encirclement. The remaining supply routes for the Bakhmut group are under fire from Russian artillery.

Meanwhile, in Kyiv, apparently, they are going to keep Artemovsk to the last, despite the enormous losses suffered by Ukrainian troops in this direction. Andrey Marochko, a retired lieutenant colonel of the NM of the LPR, reports on his TG channel that the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is trying to prevent the encirclement of Artemovsk.



Referring to information obtained from his own sources, the military said that right now there is a transfer, as he put it, of more or less combat-ready units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to the western part of the city.

In addition, according to Marochko, the Ukrainian troops are strengthening their positions in the area of ​​roads along which the Bakhmut group is being supplied, and they have also sharply increased the intensity of artillery fire on the advancing units of the Wagner PMC from the area of ​​n. p. Hours Yar.



It is worth recalling that in Kyiv they repeatedly declared the “uselessness” of Bakhmut (Artemovsk) in strategic terms. At the same time, despite the appeals of Commander-in-Chief Zaluzhny to Zelensky to allow the withdrawal of troops from the almost surrounded city, the Ukrainian president insists on holding these positions.

In this regard, even in Washington, there are statements that Bakhmut for the Kyiv authorities today is more of a “symbol of resilience” than a sector of the front that has any strategic significance. At the same time, many experts warn that the complete encirclement or destruction of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers in this settlement will inflict enormous reputational losses on Zelensky and a moral blow to the Armed Forces of Ukraine themselves.

    Without the capture of the UR in the Chasov Yar area, there will be no complete and final liberation of Artemovsk.

      It seems to me alone that without striking and destroying the decision-making center in Kuive, there will be no liberation of Ukraine from Nazism!
      Probably, most likely, after Ukraine, it will be necessary to clean other territories from brown mold

        So far, it looks like a "rake" (the liberation of the Nazis from the camps after the Second World War) that took place. But that's for now. And I think it was taken into account. The main demilitar. The rest later.

    Prigogine:
    “Let me tell you everything in detail again in order to exclude additional questions. PMC "Wagner" blocks Bakhmut. In order to unlock Bakhmut, it is advisable to block Wagner PMC. To do this, the Armed Forces of Ukraine created a number of groups: one grouping in Slavyansk - 67th brigade, the second grouping in Seversk - 81st and 66th brigades, another grouping in Chasov Yar and one in Konstantinovka.
    In order to securely unblock Artemovsk, the Armed Forces of Ukraine need to block Wagner PMC. And it will turn out to be a “pie”: the filling is the parts of the Armed Forces of Ukraine surrounded by us (in the case, of course, if there is a complete encirclement of Bakhmut), and the shell is, in fact, the Wagner PMC.
    I am knocking on all doors, sounding the alarm with ammunition and reinforcements, and also so that we cover our flanks. If everything is coordinated, without ambitions, vyebons and tantrums, they do this joint work, then we will block the Armed Forces of Ukraine, but the Armed Forces of Ukraine will not block us. If not, then everyone will come. That's basically your answer."

      Parquet generals Prigogine - a bone in the throat. If it becomes possible to merge Wagner, it will be merge. And do not care what will happen to the country. Your uniform is closer to your body.
      Otherwise, later, after the investigation, you will have to remove orders and shoulder straps.
      By the way, in 1916, the commander of the Western Front, Evert, leaked the Brusilovsky breakthrough. Out of envy for the successes, Brusilov did not allow him to withdraw Austria from the war, complete the WWI and become a national hero.

      Strange. and when the shooters said the same thing about the defense of Slavyansk, then a certain cook-commander wanted to drag him to the "boy" court and threatened to wet his face. Well, come on. Prove yourself, prove that you will not leave the position. Or was it worth a little to screw the extra supply tap and a mustache? How much did the shooter have there? A couple of battalions and fifty armored units? And not a single plane?

      It's clear. It’s just that now it can be surrendered by withdrawing troops from the city, and after the onset of mudslides, it will have to be surrendered along with the troops. So it doesn't really matter.

      The Wagner commanders understood this.
      Therefore, they abandoned attempts to surround the city and pressed from the east. Squeezing the Ukrainians to the line of the river and taking up positions along the river.
      APU, however, is also more convenient.

      There are not enough forces for a full-fledged encirclement, and Ukrainians understand this (like everyone else, Prigozhin himself speaks openly about this).
      If you close the ring with a narrow strip, the Armed Forces of Ukraine can reattach it from both sides, and the Wagnerites themselves may be surrounded, but they do not want this. Moreover, the generals from MORF will only be glad that the Wagnerites have been "put in their place."

    Talk show exes. So Morochka crawled out on all the radars. "Bakhmut, surrounded by the Armed Forces of Ukraine, are trying to keep him." I want to say, "Seriously?" Captain damn obvious. In general, of all the Hodokovskys, Rogozins and other "former members", only Basurin did not move to the tryndelni, although he, I am sure, has connections and sources. For which he respect.

    Does the author of VO read? Yesterday there was an article that the retention of Artemovsk is precisely the decision of the military.
    in Kyiv, they repeatedly declared the "uselessness" of Bakhmut (Artemovsk) in strategic terms

    Strategically, yes. And in the tactical one, PMC Wagner is connected by battles in Artemovsk. If he is surrendered, there will be an attack on Chasov Yar.

    NOT MERCY SONG TEXT:

    1st Trophy:

    Out for the first - the atmosphere is heavy
    World title lays on the line
    Strong and proud he is much older
    I am the faster I'm in my prime

    2nd Trophy:

    Third round late he starts to tire
    Open cut over his left eye
    Smelling blood attack is relentless
    In the back seats I see his girl cry

    Chorus I:

    Cry - No mercy, no quarter

    No place to hide for me and the man
    Lefts and rights never came in harder
    No mercy, take it while you can - now!
    No mercy take it while you can


    3rd Trophy:

    Back in my corner they scream 'No mercy!"
    ′ Put him away, don't let him recover!"
    Someone's eyes drill holes in my head
    It is his proud determined mother

    Chorus II:

    Cry - No mercy, no quarter

    No place to hide for me or the man
    Right and wrong never came in harder
    No mercy, take it while you can - now!
    No mercy, take it while you can

    Solo

    4th Trophy:
    I wish another could do this thing for me
    His eyes are flooded, doubt he can even see

    In my opinion, Wagner was leaked in Syria when they could help the Aerospace Forces so that the US Army would not destroy Wagner, the pilots of the Aerospace Forces simply did not give the go-ahead to take off. If you believe what the PMCs themselves wrote about this situation in Syria.
