Controlling less than 7 percent of Artyomovsk, the Ukrainian military now use the phrase "If the Russians take the city..."

Ukrainian military personnel stationed in Artyomovsk (Bakhmut) in their publications on social networks and instant messengers have now begun to use the attention-grabbing wording: “If the Russians take the city…”

In general, the formulations sound like this: "If the Russians take the city, then its ruins will become their grave."

It is noteworthy that these passages exactly repeat what the military personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine declared when they lost control over Soledar at one time. Then there were also loud threats, militaristic publications in instant messengers, promises “to recapture the city within a week or two”, as a result, words remain words.

The key is that at the moment, when less than 7% of the territory of Artemovsk is under the control of the enemy, he himself is well aware that his position cannot be saved. But traditionally, in order to keep the propaganda bar up to par with numerous losses on our own side, there are statements with threats in the style: “Look, we will arrange more for you.”

The statements of the Ukrainian military themselves come against the backdrop of Zelensky’s words that Bakhmut will not leave the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Recall that on the eve of the division of PMC "Wagner" came to two key intersections in the west of Artyomovsk, from which the roads go towards Khromovo - to Chasov Yar. The Armed Forces of Ukraine for transport communication with the city have to use dirt roads, which in 1-2 days will again become limp under the heavy rains promised by weather forecasters.

These percentage calculations are annoying.
I remember Hitler's speeches about Stalingrad.

[Aken]

Without interest, it is more difficult to assess the course of the liberation of the city. Although praying for numbers is also not necessary. Such arithmetic is the lot of effective managers.
And I didn’t catch Hitler’s speech in his youth. He died before I was born. What did he say?

[Volunteer Marek]

That's when they start saying "when the Russians take the city" ... And, about 7.5%, it's really - to the pharmacy. Behind every percent is the blood of our guys. To our fighters, do not chase after these percentages, take care of yourself, beat the Bandera reptile!

[Quote Lavrov]

Moreover, how many more such Artemovsks we have to release ...

[Wolfskin1993]

I guess not much. As soon as the "counterattack" bogs down, the faucet for supplies and financial support will be redrawn. Then everything will end. Very fast and unexpected.

[Kaufman]

If it bogs down, supplies will not end, but will increase in quality. No wonder they are deploying military production, opening repair bases. Most likely they will give aviation, preparations are underway for this.
This must be understood! The West bit the bit and will go to the end

It's not just about supplies. A defeat at the front will hit the morale of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and this can reduce their combat capability much more than a reduction in supplies.

[solar]

On the contrary, supplies will increase. The Abrams are already being prepared, they are sharply expanding the production of ammunition. Clearly, the training of pilots on the F-16 is being prepared, it is clear that for a reason.

Yes, but ours will no longer be stopped. It's like in the Second World War: after the turning point came after Stalingrad and the failed revenge of the Germans on the Kursk Bulge - no injections, no new equipment, no new mobilizations, no prodigies could no longer stop the Germans from rolling back. Even jet aircraft and ballistic missiles (with a huge range for that time!) Could no longer help the Nazis at the end of the war.
History just repeats itself.

[EMMM]

I would like to agree, but the elections on the 24th are still far away. Therefore, there will be help, and Ukrainian women will have to go to the monastery, since there will be no one to fuck them. And let them yell in front of the altar: "Moskalyaku to Gilyak!"

[dmi.pris1]

Tell me why this anger from the vuk is here. To whom this will become a grave, it is quite obvious

[private person]

To whom this will become a grave is quite obvious

They are probably talking about the fact that when the Wagner takes the city, they will bombard the city from artillery and MLRS of the Hymers type, burying PMCs in the ruins.

[EMMM]

Well, it turns out that the "private person" does not know Russian

Recall that on the eve of the division of PMC "Wagner" came to two key intersections in the west of Artyomovsk, from which the roads go towards Khromovo - to Chasov Yar.

Prigozhin confirmed the information that the reports about the capture of the intersection in Artemovsk are premature and that work is ongoing there.

He was also not at all optimistic about the further course of events in the operation. Unfortunately (cart .. Prigozhin's hat). And this is from a person very informed by the state of affairs at the front.

[Bingo]

Which confirms the idea that denazification is taking place in Ukraine - the songs are familiar. And it's too late to retrain these

[Uprun]

Another whining from the basement, a la Mariupol inmates.... only they understand that there will be no extraction.

[Konnick]

I would not be in a hurry to take Bakhmut. Things are going well there, the airbags are being utilized quite well, if we go beyond Bakhmut, then our losses will increase, and now the ratio seems to be 7 to 1.
The danger lies in the fact that the existing underground communications, in addition to supply functions, can be systematically mined and, when the Armed Forces of Ukraine leave, they can be blown up at any time.

Evgeny Prigogine said

“The system of Soledar and Bakhmut mines, in fact, a network of underground cities. In which there is not only a cluster of people at a depth of 80-100 meters, but also tanks and infantry fighting vehicles move. And stockpiles of weapons have been stored since the First World War.

And there was a test explosion, then they wondered what it was, and the explosion was filmed by a copter, they were preparing to capture it, it is possible that it was an experiment on breaking through a layer of soil from a certain dungeon and assessing the power of the charge.

Yes, our weather gives good)) rains for five days. This one is just for the early days of May.

Over the past 10 months, only one city, Soledar, with a population of 10 thousand people before the war, was taken as a large village.
Artemovsk is a little more. Haven't been able to get it for over XNUMX months now.
The bravura style of the author is not clear.

Are you sure that such a task was set before the troops?

[Askold65]

Quote from solar

Soledar with a population of 10 thousand people before the war, like a big village.
Artemovsk is a little more.

About seven times. A little bit. But...
In this conflict, it makes no sense to report on the capture of cities. The main indicator is the quantity and quality of the vuk sent to Bandera.

[BMP-2]

Another confirmation that the so-called "defenders" of the city absolutely do not care about the city, which they supposedly protect.

[azkolt]

This news just kills me!))) In the Ukrainian press, they say they began to say "if they take", but I listen to Vesti FM every day at work and they say IF the Ukrainian offensive succeeds!))) For this, there is the word "if ".

[ser580]

so why are you crying??? what will they take or not take? or not ia fan that just throw on the fan
