Fighting on the Russian-Ukrainian border

32
According to RIA "News", with reference to the press service of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, on Monday a group of unidentified armed persons attacked a roadblock near Amvrosiyivka in the territory of the Donetsk region. As a result of the collision, one attacker died, another seven were injured, no injuries among the Ukrainian military.

The press service of the department noted that around Monday at 12: 30 Moscow time, ten cars arrived in a checkpoint near the Uspenka checkpoint on the state border with Russia, in which there were more than fifty unknown armed men. The militants broke up into groups approximately 400 meters from the roadblock and started shooting at the Ukrainian soldiers, who “accepted the battle”, giving “adequate resistance”. The fight lasted about half an hour.

“As a result of the armed confrontation among the Ukrainian soldiers, there are no casualties,” the press service informs. It is noted that one assailant died, another seven were injured. Also, the military destroyed several cars.

It is worth noting that the representative of the press service of the Donetsk People's Republic Vitaly Ivanov did not confirm the data of the media about the death of a militiaman during a clash near the border with Russia. Some media cited evidence of local residents about aimed fire, open to passing cars. According to Ivanov, this is “information from a very unreliable source.”

      Yes, what provocation? The military imitate the war ... They fired on the bus and the attack. I’m more interested in this situation. The knee-highs shook at the junta. They understand that they will lose the border anyway soon ... The border guards are not motocotyledonous. They especially resist will not, if that. So from day to day, the Strelkov will make such a decision to capture the checkpoint at the border ...

        Sorry, I don’t agree, why do you think the border guards are not combat-ready? I certainly don’t know how the Ukrop border guards are, but when compared with ours .... But remember the Second World War, the Germans were fucked up by the resistance of the border guards! The war was already far away, and the outposts were fighting!

          In ancient times he served at the border. Soviet border guards performed their duty with honor. Times have changed and the picture, especially in Ukria, has changed a lot. "Terrible Ukrainian prikordonniki" are strong above all in the spirit of profit. Himself many times traveled with a load through Uspenka. Seen enough at the behavior of customs and border guards (I can’t dare to call them that).

      This is an imitation, not a provocation. Although the militia has one very important task, to take border points under its control.
      Once you have declared yourself an independent state, then control your borders. No borders - no state. This is the number one task.

    The defenders of Slavyansk and Kramatorsk are now urgently adopting the experience of their grandfathers, how they burned Hitler's "armor" with the anti-tank rifles of Degtyarev and Simonov. They love, of course, old ones and talk about abstract topics (age !!!), but they have not lost their military knowledge and their grandchildren (and those have already had their eyes shining !!!). from PTRS ("there were hits, and whether they hit it or not - we'll find out later" - I.

      The PRT is a weapon that is terrible for vehicles with light armor. The main thing is that modern tricks do not help ... Shot like with a rifle, which means it is not possible to track the moment of aiming ... You just need to explain the most vulnerable places of the vehicles to the soldiers ...

          Yes, what is there to know something special. For PTR, the most vulnerable part is the engine. In optics, taking into account the accuracy of such weapons, it’s quite difficult to get there, it would be justified to have an airborne compartment if there was a landing in the car, but taking into account the experience of recent wars, landing parties are preferred to be planted on armor ... Detonation of an ammunition unit using anti-tank missiles is also very problematic only if by chance. So only the engine remains.

      According to the website http://www.pobediteli.ru/, on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the victory (2005), there were just over 1 million veterans alive. This is a good, accurate site, I think this figure can be trusted.
      The average age of these veterans in 2005 was 82-83 years (my estimate). Here is a table of the probability of death at a certain age: http://www.ssa.gov/OACT/STATS/table4c6.html
      82 years old - men - 7,5%, women - 5,5%
      92 years old - men - 20%, women - 16%
      Averaging and considering that this is data for the USA, where the average life expectancy is longer than ours, it is very rude to say that the average probability of death of a veteran was 15% for each of the 9 years since 2005.
      0,85 ^ 9 = 0.23
      That is, with fairly great certainty we can say that now there are from 200 to 300 thousand veterans. Their average age is 91-92 years, now every year they are becoming less than about 20%.
      I am afraid that I will not transfer the experience to anyone else. Pure improvisation. Estimate yourself age- let’s say in 1944 at the age of 18 years-70 + 18 = how much? Do you know a lot of old people who have survived to this age? units, alas.

      This is the most urgent need of the newly organized republics. I don’t know why they are delaying this. With whom to fight there? With graduates of the Khmelnitsky Prikordonny Academy? These are all the sons of the Khmelnytsky bazaars and shopkeepers who entered there and studied for bribes. They will run away after the first shot!

        But what is not clear? You can take control of the border. But then you need to have units there that can wage a serious war. With trenches, with tank attacks and other delights of positional combat. And the militia is not ready for this. There are no serious anti-tank systems, there are no aircraft, there is not enough armored vehicles.

          I agree. It’s not so difficult to take, how to hold on. On the other hand, they will take the border, and equipment will appear and volunteers from our side .... God grant that our officials have the wisdom to at least implicitly supply the DPR army with weapons. our warehouses are full of ATGMs, MANPADS, and RPGs of Soviet construction, which could be quietly transferred.

    Fighting on the Russian-Ukrainian border

    But have we not hurried with the withdrawal of our troops from this border? The reinforced force grouping in this region is justified and necessary. At least to prevent the undesirable consequences of a civil war on transboundary territories, I note a length of more than 1 thousand kilometers. For example, a massive accumulation of refugees from neighboring territories at the borders, or penetration of sabotage and terrorist groups across the border, as leaders of right-wing groups in Kiev openly threatened, breakthrough of paramilitary groups across the border in order to capture strategic facilities, for example, the Volgodonsk or Novovoronezh NPPs and so on . There is something to think about.

Unknown people in the amount of 50 surrounded the toilet and opened heavy fire from grenade launchers and machine guns against the toilet in order to destabilize its operation. By return fire, using the materials at hand by throwing them towards the attackers, the attack was repulsed! The border guard and the toilet were not injured ...
