“The brigades are turning into piles of scrap metal”: the Greek press writes about the failed attempt of the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine

The counter-offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, long expected by the West, is developing according to a failed scenario due to the lack of significant successes with huge losses of the Ukrainian army.

Brigades of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are turning into piles of scrap metal. There is relevant video evidence of this

- says the Greek edition of DefenseNet.



As explained in the press, in the Artyomovsk and Soledar directions, "reports are not at all suitable for the Ukrainian counterattack." Only near Soledar, the losses amounted to about 16 tanks, 26 armored vehicles and 14 vehicles. In total, more than 2 people lost their lives to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. After a number of minor successes achieved during the offensive, the Ukrainian units were driven out of the captured positions and rolled back, for example, from the village of Novodonetskoye on the Vremievsky sector of the front. Fighting continues near Berkhovka on the outskirts of Artyomovsk: the village is only half captured by the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and Russian units have built new defense lines.

However, according to the Russian military correspondents who were at the scene, there are no Ukrainian troops in Berkhovka at all.

In the coming days, the counteroffensive of the Ukrainian army may turn into a kind of Ardennes

- indicates the author.

Against this unfavorable background for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the publication believes that the Kiev regime is responsible for undermining the Kakhovka dam:

Perhaps the dam was blown up because, in the end, things on the fronts are not going well for the Ukrainians at all. The Russians do not benefit from this, since the destruction of the dam for many years could leave Crimea without a powerful source of water. But for Ukrainians, this undermining over time can facilitate the advancement of troops.

As the author explains, tactically only the Ukrainians benefit from the explosion of the dam, who in this way are trying to destroy all the defensive positions of the RF Armed Forces on the left bank of the Dnieper.

      With piles of scrap metal, when it still looked like military equipment and shells, Greece also helped Ukraine, so it’s not even clear who this Greek newspaper is worried about - for Russia or for Ukraine.
      Oh, the Greeks, the Greeks, and you won’t even think that during WWII they beat the Nazis and fascists and still kept the day on the calendar when they celebrate it. And now they are helping the same Nazis. How low the Greeks have sunk in our eyes. fool

          On December 5, 1944, by order of British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, the British armed forces entered the battle against ELAS. Interestingly, in Sir Churchill's order to General Scobie, it was literally said: "Do not hesitate to act as if you were in a conquered city where a local rebellion broke out."
          To pacify the Athenian rebellion, Great Britain sent 90 soldiers to Greece. Is it a lot or a little!?... For comparison, during the opening of the Second Front, the sandy beaches of Normandy were stormed by a LESS number of British! But these 90 thousand punishers could be useful in the fight against German Nazism.
          On May 11, 1945, British troops landed on the island of Crete in the picturesque town of Rethymnon - the 28th Infantry Brigade.
          The British immediately began to fight ... no, not with the German garrison, but with the Greek partisans from ELAS. The Cretan rebels beat the British so hard that they trembled ... and asked for help ... no, not from their command, but from the Germans. They took out neatly folded weapons from the shooting pyramids and arsenals, started their equipment and with great pleasure began to smash the damned communists.
          The 212th German tank battalion called “Crete” came to the rescue of the British and unblocked the “allies”. It got to the incredible - the personal car of the commander of the British troops, General Preston, was taken under guard by two German tanks ...
          For more than a month, the battle of the Greek patriots with the English army continued. Many people died: from the side of ELAS - about 3 thousand; British allied "government forces" lost 3,5 thousand killed; and the losses of the British themselves are estimated at 265 people killed and missing. The number of those captured on both sides went to tens of thousands of people.

    So the European press (so far Greek, but to catch up, etc.) drew attention to the fact that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are not doing as well as they prophesied in the West. And on undermining the Kakhovka dam, they have their own opinion different from the head of the European Council.

      Dear rotmistr60! The Greek press also cried "out loud" about the impending collapse of biological life and the EU economy, without Russian gas. So what? The EU is alive and even looks good... To scribble paper without consequences for what you wrote is not great courage and honor. All this "riffraff" from the Euro - the media - are not worth a broken penny. In due time, the uncles from across the ocean will "bark" at them - they will "shout out" something completely different... Russia has no "others catching up", especially in Europe, it (Russia) has only two allies and friends - its Army and Navy and, probably, Belarus, under the leadership of the respected Alexander Grigorievich ....

        How does the domestic press differ from the European one? The same thing, either an admin resource or a financial resource, today they will write one thing, tomorrow they will calmly write the opposite. The same Solovyov changed his shoes many times during his career, and lives happily ever after.

    Attacking and defending are two different things.
    This way you can quickly lose all the tanks you have deployed, which is what I was talking about.
    In this light, the destruction of the Kakhovka dam is a remarkable justification for the failure of the counteroffensive.
    All the same, the PR department of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (or AP) works very well.

      Of course, digging trenches in the lowlands is pointless. But washing away the minefields (I hope they were made), flooding the trenches and dugouts, and simply washing away the first defensive line and facilitating the access of the Armed Forces to the second with the help of high-speed boats and attempts to capture bridgeheads, we can say that it was a success. The second line will be forced to react to the approach of the landing force, will light up its positions, all this will be filmed and detected by "birds", of which they have enough. The coordinates will be transmitted to large-caliber, MLRS, etc., which are hidden in closed positions along the right bank ... The miners on our side are not so happy to set up new minefields under artillery fire, part of the troops will inevitably be pushed back from the second line of defense (let's not forget that the left bank under us is "low"). The flood will eventually pass, the riverbed will narrow ... It seems that in the supplies from the Americans and Germans there were pontoon crossings and "waterfowl" lightly armored vehicles. God forbid I'm wrong, "I didn't graduate from the academy, like the representatives of our glorious General Staff. But the next few hours and days will definitely show who is right, who is not, who is ready, and who "went out for a walk". The dam is broken, there is no way back...

        Add another hundred armored personnel carriers, then the percentage will be different. And to compare 16 destroyed tanks with the figure of 730 of all armor is a distortion of the percentage. Correct plz. if i'm wrong.

        16 were only in one direction in one day. In total, with Artyomovsk and Avdeevka, it is already approaching 50. And this is already 7%. And this is only for the last couple of days and without result
