Military expert: Ukrainian security forces are preparing to attack on Donetsk

August 18 2015

LifeNews published an interview with military expert Alexander Alexandrov, who commented on the reports of the militia headquarters, including Eduard Basurin, that Ukrainian security forces had begun to actively pull heavy weapons to the line of contact.

“Now about 430 tanks and 830 artillery pieces. The offensive of the Armed Forces should be expected immediately in two sectors. These are the sectors Yasinovataya - Gorlovka and Starognatovka - Mariupol - Talakovka - Telmanov. Moreover, the latter direction can be considered as a priority by the Armed Forces, since the sector is located near the Russian border, ”the expert said.

In his opinion, the Ukrainian security forces are preparing an offensive in the first sector.

“Near Gorlovka there are already about 20 battalions of soldiers, about 800 units of armored vehicles, around 230 tanks. Moreover, the main group was pulled to the Avdeevka and Peski settlements. And in this direction is Donetsk. And this is a landmark territory for the militias and the most tasty morsel for Kiev. Therefore, it is here that the offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine should be expected, ”Alexandrov said.

In addition, the expert announced the estimated date of the beginning of the offensive of the Ukrainian military.

“According to the DPR intelligence, the onset of the Armed Forces of Ukraine will occur on a significant date for Kiev - August 24, on Ukraine’s Independence Day. And for the Ukrainian nationalists, this date was raised to the rank of sacred. In any case, a massive offensive is a matter of one to two weeks, ”he said.

According to Aleksandrov, to win the DPR militia, individual Ukrainian groups will have to be let through to their territory in order to be surrounded by them.

"It is likely that boilers will again arise, which were, for example, in Debaltseve," the expert noted.

      Clearly, this, tactics, strategy ... Just think about which areas you can let the Natsik wedge into our defense, and where not.
      
      If we are talking about the literally scorched earth of the Donetsk airport, or the relatively sparsely populated territories of the Azov region, then this is one thing, but if the direction is Yasinovataya-Makeyevka, or, for example, Gorlovka-Yenakiyevo, then other "layouts" should apply ...

        On the dill side, too, are not fools.
        It is necessary for the DNLR to "seriously train the troops," as Comrade. Stalin.
        And most importantly, we need to understand to competent comrades that in conditions of a limited number of militias and a relatively small theater of operations, maneuvers cannot be won.
        It is necessary to use powerful and high-precision weapons. As has been said more than once, these are OTRK, large-caliber MLRS and aviation.
        Only such strikes can deprive the command of the Ukromances of the transfer of reserves, command and control of the troops and rear and technical support, which will lead to their quick defeat and the necessary breakdown of the Banderstad into ambitious Svidomites and normal.
        On the screech of the USA and vassals on ... they only understand the arguments from the Strategic Missile Forces, they ponder and calm down, they themselves are already working on options for throwing off the vile and unpredictable banderlogs, like all extremists.

        even in the fall there were video docs that the militia seized from the degenerates several launchers and transport-loading BM-27, but how many of them do you really have, who thought that? Later on the network in the militia groups was walking infa that even Bezler somehow managed to "capture" about 7-8 "Peonies". So, not everything is so bad there.
        Vaughn, without hesitation, from the north, Vodniki and Shots come to you en masse, and they are filmed on video and they are in the reports of losses, and neither of which nor who will be embarrassed. Although these machines are actually in service with only one army in the world. And here you are worried that you have little "heavy". Everything will be, do not hold

  It must be so! But ... But you can't underestimate the strength of the dill and their combat power ... it's not in vain that they poured out so much time under the name MINSK-2 ... there was time to improve the technique ... and conduct combat coordination ... THE QUESTION IS ONLY ONE - DO THE NEW FIGHTERS OF THE AFU WANT TO GO TO DEATH FOR UNKNOWN WHICH AND TO THIS CRIMINAL GOALS !? Will the WEST also support Kiev with its new criminal adventure? Most likely no! This is the main strength of the militia! They will withstand the first massive attacks ... it means that the army of dill will crumble and then it will be possible to go even as far as Kiev ... Nobody will agree to a new agreement for a respite in the form of Minsk-3.
  I am sure ... and the militia fighters did not sit idly by ... did not sunbathe ... but still they will have a hard time! Good luck to you! Hold on! Your cause is right-- YOU WILL WIN!

  They have one "understanding" that they are "bogged down" ... and are in power only as long as the war is going on.
  As soon as they abandon Donetsk in one way or another, in their rear, irreversible processes will begin, with a variety of directions, from violent nationalist, to separatist, and even in bizarre "combinations".
  And in this case, they can’t hold power anymore ...

I do not think the expert is right. The offensive, by all estimates, was due to begin last week. But it did not start.
Ukraine has concentrated troops in three directions. However, only local operations are possible. There is no opportunity for a full-scale offensive.
Prior to 24, local attempts to capture settlements are possible. but in general, art will be activated.
Exhausting the enemy and destroying their own and foreign troops. here is the task of Kiev

      Hello Sasha why "twitch"? this is the purest truth! pick up the materials from the spring: Zakharchenko, every week he practically said the same thing: tomorrow they (the Ukrainians) will attack! they have gathered strength, they are preparing for an offensive, and so on! (do not be lazy, look through) and I will gladly accept your apologies for "twitching"!

        Who knows, maybe these maxims of Zakharchenko kept the junta from the offensive, because they were also covered in the OSCE materials, and the fighting spirit of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is so low! ..
        I think that they themselves are afraid to conduct active operations, despite the presence of 2 tank armies and several artillery corps: they are simply forced to do this, because the Armed Forces of Ukraine do not have real combat readiness (and especially victorious spirit!).

        As one literary hero said, "this is a dismemberment, who needs a dismemberment." If they say something to you on TV, then, firstly, they may not really say it to you, and secondly, in order to get the desired reaction from you. So it is quite possible that Zakhar spoke for the audience from the other side. An example - when there was a siege of Slavyansk and the July battles then, the Russian army several times began to advance to the border, or information about its advance appeared. And dill postponed prepared attacks and took up defensive positions. And the Russian troops never attacked, but the lessons each time switched from offensive to defensive actions.

      But there is enough artillery. A powerful force will be concentrated in the direction of the main strike. Then the processing of the fortifications with artillery and forward in the air, and on their corpses are already good. No wonder they mobilized so much fresh meat. The boilers taught them. And a new offensive will go with securing the flanks, keeping the roads, ours will be harder.

In recent days, Donbass has been subjected to powerful artillery strikes against dozens of settlements. "Grady" is hitting Donetsk with packages. Lugansk was left without water. There are civilian casualties. The appeal to the "world community" remains unheard, the OSCE is silent. In the foreign media, the militias are accused of shelling the outskirts of Mariupol and even their own cities. At the same time, the OSCE daily monitors the guns and armored vehicles assigned by the DPR army in accordance with the Minsk agreements, but does not see the gathering of equipment and manpower of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to the line of contact.

Well, recently, everything is going on as in the past offensive of the Armed Forces. Already you again accused us of disrupting Minsk, and the Armed Forces of Ukraine only defends itself and is forced to shoot. Let’s take it and drive the ambassador from Russia together with all sorts of democratizers. The OSCE, as usual, I hear nothing, I see nothing. We are waiting for the next time the pile of Khokhlov.

Typical Amer technology is practiced to the smallest detail. This is a point strike. If the Americans do this by aviation, then the APU does not have it. Therefore, they practice it with art. The minimum of their losses and the maximum of losses (any) for LDNR. Tactics are practiced wherever Americans climbed.

It seems that the explosions of ammunition depots, which occurred quite recently, "from accidental ignition", thwarted the offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine near Mariupol. And the artillery of the VSN is conducting counter-battery combat much more effectively. Dill needs to do something. Autumn thaw is approaching. Either now, or wait until frost. And in the winter they have already tried it. It's not tasty. True, they also tried it in the summer. Then the situation "hung by a thread." Dill Novorossia "cannot be crushed", the Yugoslavian scenario with the rapid capture of Serbian enclaves does not let them sleep, but this is in vain. So there the army did not resist. It is unlikely that the VSN is not ready for any kind of offensive.

the fact that dill pulls it is understandable that at least some element of surprise should be_not to attack them exactly on the dates voiced by the militia_so therefore, for example, the offensive will not be August 24, not 25 but for example 27_all already exhaled and you will get dill, and generally I wouldn’t be glad for the boilers the next company will be very serious, I would say the most serious of those that there were_ at least dill and brooms but already a lot of raking experience has been accumulated and they won’t merge so simply_ generally everything will be tough with equal chance of success before entering the state of Zen before the battle and not the caps to cook dill

August 24, Independence Day of Ukraine

If they are already completely finished d.u.i.l. (and this is obviously so), then their "holiday of independence" will eventually turn into a shame of the Ukrainian junta. For some reason, it seems to me that in the event of the start of active hostilities, Russia is finally simply obliged to show "Kuzka's mother." Moreover, the United States is already loudly accusing the militia and, of course, Russia of confrontation in the Donbas. Patience can run out in malacholny with such cynical pressure.

It is hoped that this time the "peacekeepers" will not stop the militias in front of Miriupol and will give him the opportunity to free him from this galloping Svidomo Bandera scum and go further (perhaps through Odessa to the border with Transnistria, this would have finished the junta completely)!

Yes, they brought a lot of equipment and what is bad for the VSN, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have a bombarded army, they will have to launch the North Wind again. And this is not good, last year the "wind" passed without losses, and now I don't even know how it will turn out.

In my opinion, the Armed Forces of Ukraine will not try to launch a large-scale offensive against Donetsk, but will try to launch local offensives on the flanks of the Donetsk-Gorlovskaya BCH group, i.e. in the areas of Dokuchaevsk and Debaltseve, and in the Telman direction, with the aim of cutting off the Novoazovskaya group of BCH.
