The positions of the enemy from the Orekhovsky direction, where he is trying to break through to the south and take Rabotino, to Bolshaya Novoselka of the Donetsk People's Republic, fall under the blows.

Mi-28N helicopters are used, which are tested with Vikhr-M missiles against armored vehicles and fortifications of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Long-range artillery, TOS "Solntsepek" and other means of destruction also work.

Under the fire of Russian troops, enemy positions on an area of ​​​​more than 400 square kilometers.

It is also reported about the strikes on the places of deployment of the troops of the Kyiv regime in the east of the Dnepropetrovsk region.

Ukrainian media write about the most massive strike in recent weeks on the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from Orekhov to Staromayorsky. There, including the reserve units of the Ukrainian troops, thrown into battle by the command a few days ago, are under attack.

      Our position is clear - we are grinding the enemy, as the musicians did in Artemovsk, and then we will go on the offensive. the Ukrainian did not come up with anything strategic, he stupidly floods the front with the corpses of his soldiers. Sooner or later they will end...

    ... inflicting a massive strike ... Under the fire of Russian troops, enemy positions on an area of ​​more than 400 sq. km.
    This usually precedes the start of the offensive.

      Or an attempt to preempt large enemy forces preparing to throw. Like on July 5, 1943 near Kursk. Yesterday there were reports of the redeployment of reserve brigades of the Vushniks, including the 82nd

    Is it really "fire preparation for the offensive"?

        You might think that they once printed the truth, for them it’s normal to pass off a video from Arma 3 as downed helicopters, then quickly sculpt their corpses on their armored personnel carriers with masking tape, pass off a video from Karabakh about strikes on Russian tanks, who sane would believe such? Of course, they are silent about the blows and about the corpses.

    yes, I also observe and am surprised: it seems that the pressure on Rabotino has increased and actually the best Ukrainian military units have been sent there, but there have been no reports of strikes from the Russian Air Force; although earlier, during the June attacks, all these Bradleys and Leopards were ordinary victims of our helicopters.
    Yes, and the Challengers, it is felt, the APU protects in order to push the "dragon's teeth". Well, well, let's see how far they can get.

    Or the enemy's reserves are simply being destroyed ... attacking in the rainy season is not the best solution. what

    Such joyful news has not yet been heard in official news. Everything is routine: they destroyed 3 transportable howitzers, M777, D-20 and D-30, and also covered 2 infantry platoons of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with fire. Well, they hit the supporters.

    400 sq km is a square with a side of 20 km. Well, or a rectangle of 40 by 10 km.

    For the Russian-Ukrainian front, more than 800 long, this is not grandiose. And in view of the lack of information on this topic on the news feeds, it can generally be a duck.

    Did you bring shells from North Korea? It's time already, a passenger train to Moscow from Vladivostok takes 10 days, a freight train takes 2 weeks, but if you give the green light, it will reach you in a week.
    The area of ​​destruction with one volley of MLRS "Grad" from 40 rockets is 145 thousand square meters. Then 1 sq. km is 7 volleys of the Grad MLRS or 280 shells. We multiply 400 sq. km by 280 shells per sq. km and get 112000 r.s. Weight of one r.s. 66 kg. We multiply 11200 r.s. at 66 kg/r.s. and we get 7 kg or 392 tons. One train of 000 cars transports 7 tons, and trains are formed from 392 cars - 100 tons. it is one double train.
    The benefit of such a massive strike is that there is no need to conduct a counter-battery fight. And also the accuracy is unimportant. the fire is conducted on the squares, and even if it is not known exactly where the enemy has taken cover, then the probability of his defeat is calculated by the methods of mathematical statistics.

    Campaign, "extinguish" the reserves of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. I think from 20 Aug. (or a little earlier) north of the Crimea will be very hot.

    Few soldiers are unlikely and offensive.
    Most likely, they want to destroy NATO reserves while they are not in the rear.

    Looks like a preemptive strike. Are the Armed Forces of Ukraine preparing for a big breakthrough. Although, there have not yet been large-scale strikes from the side of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

    Well, 400 square kilometers is only 20x20. Or 40x10 km. Or 50x8 km. And the line of contact is about 1000 km.

    Rather, you're lying here than Prigozhin - about shells. But this is my personal opinion.
