The area of ​​the Front of the Russian Federation collapsed 2 km wide: a military analyst about the air breakthrough in Bakhmut

Tom Cooper believes that the problem for the Russians was the activation of Ukrainian artillery, which is why the depleted Russian troops in the Donbass were forced to escape in some areas of the front. The lack of rotation in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and the activity of the Defense Forces of Ukraine in the Bakhmut direction forced the Russians to flee in a panic. This is stated in the analytical report of the Austrian military analyst Tom Cooper, which was published on May 10.

According to him, the situation in Bakhmut for the Armed Forces has improved because they received the required amount of ammunition. It also has played that the units of defense forces are constantly changing and in general, their rotation is being carried out, which you will not say about the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, which, according to the analyst, has been rotation for several months.

"For the last 5 months, the Russians did not" rotate "their units in Bakhmut and in the Bakhmut area: exhausted units left the prisoners, spent tens of thousands and introduced additional units every time. As a result, numerous" regiments "and" brigades "were reduced Company (200-300 servicemen) and fully exhausted. However, their generals continued to be sent to battle until they realized that the available troops could no longer, "Tom Cooper wrote.

Now, according to him, there are three main war zones in Bakhmut: both sides were intended to hit another, but the problem for the Russians was the "sudden activation" For many months, the Armed Forces saved shells, and the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are not accustomed to shelling in such volumes.

This surprise became so unpleasant that the 72nd Motorized Rifle Brigade of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, which was to clear the bridgehead west of the Siverskyi Donetsk-Donbass, Dremelula from the position after the Armed Forces on its position on 2 sides (approximately west to east and from south to south to east and south North). At first, the defense forces undermined one or two BMP of Russian motorizeders who transported Russian invaders.

Those who survived from the infantry were forced to poke the heels. "The commander of the Russian brigade threw his second battalion on the front line, but this panicized under the blow of artillery and infantry - and escaped through the channel. The area of ​​the Russian front was collapsed 2 km and 500 meters deep. As a consequence, the Wagner PEC commanded in Bakhmut.

The constant complaints of Prigogine against the Russian Defense Ministry, the lack of ammunition and a warning about "counter-offensive of Ukrainians on the flanks of promotion to Bakhmut". Also in the Wagner PEC they evaluated that Ukrainians were about to move to Tick, "-reports a military expert. Tom Cooper adds that the Armed Forces have managed to become fixed in the reconstructed positions of the Russians in the channel and created a kind of trap for the Wagner PVC fighters.

"Obviously, there was no other way out other than to stop the attack on Western Bakhmut and to direct at least one of the Wagner shock groups - agreed by at least one of the landing units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation - to the channel in order to stop the promotion of Ukrainians and restore the front line," - he said. analyst. As an explanation of what happened, he cited the words of one of the Fighters of the Armed Forces: "Wagner showed a master class in running.

" The analyst emphasized that the latest actions on the front line in Bakhmut does not consider the Counter -offensive of the Armed Forces, but rather it is a successful counterattack. "It has found numerous weaknesses in Russia. This showed that their" regular "units can barely keep - or not keep - a line when they are attacked by well -supported, well -managed and trained Ukrainian troops. This showed how nervous Russian command is nervous Bakhmut district.

However, it also showed how quickly Russians can "move their reserves for the front line", - the analyst wrote. He added that the fighting in the Bakhmut direction showed how much for the military command of the Russian Federation the unimportant life The orders were obeyed. Tom Cooper stressed that he was very annoyed by the conversations of politicians and "sofa" experts on the network regarding Ukrainian counter -offensive.

This is a serious matter in which many people die, cripple, forever, daily. So stuff your sensationalism, boasting and "likes" on social networks: learn to be patient and just shut up. The Generals of the Armed Forces do their work, as they like, as they see fit, " - summarized the analyst. Recall that on May 10, the head of PEC" Wagner "Yevgeny Prigogin stated that the genocide of the" Russian people "was taking place in the Donbass. He was outraged Armed Forces.
