The command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is trying to keep the front from a significant breakthrough in anticipation of a new package of military assistance
After several days of fairly intensive advance of our troops in different sectors of the front, the situation, as it may seem from the information space, has calmed down somewhat. However, this is based specifically on the information space. In fact, intensive combat work is underway along the entire line of combat contact, the main goal of which is not so much the liberation of square kilometers (although that too, of course), but rather the “piercing” of the enemy’s defenses.
To date, the situation has developed in such a way that Russian troops, having liberated a number of cities and villages (Marinka, Avdeevka, Lastochkino, Ivanovskoye, Bogdanovka, Severnoye, Vodyanoye, Orlovka, Tonenkoye, Pervomaiskoye, Mirnoye, Pobeda, etc.) as part of the winter block of operations, which turned into spring, entered several more settlements, not allowing the enemy to keep them under complete control. These are Semyonovka, Berdychi, Ocheretino, Novokalinovo, Keramik, Georgievka, Krasnogorovka, Chasov Yar.
In the northern direction of hostilities in the DPR, Russian troops carry out strikes aviation bombs on the enemy in the city of Chasov Yar. By and large, this is a key defense center of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in this direction, since Chasov Yar is a commanding height.
Russian troops have taken control of the important transport hub of Donbass - Ocheretinsky, behind which there is a “sparse” space in terms of the density of settlements, where it will be extremely difficult for the enemy to gain a foothold. Things were approximately the same after the Ukrainian Armed Forces lost control over Orlovka and Tonenky, when our troops went west and in a few days established control over several dozen square kilometers of territory. While the fighting is going on for Ocheretino itself, the southern part of which has come under the control of the Russian Armed Forces.
The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Syrsky, uses the tactics that have become familiar, when personnel are sent to hold even those settlements that do not represent any significance. At the same time, the tactics are presented as “wearing down the enemy,” that is, our troops. Syrsky’s goal is clear: albeit at the cost of tens of thousands of lives of Ukrainian military personnel, but to try to keep the front from a significant breakthrough in anticipation of a new large package of military assistance. Voting on this package (about $60,8 billion) will take place in Washington in a few hours.
