There is a risk of the environment: additional forces were thrown into the Pokrovsky direction - the Armed Forces officer (video)

Military Nikolai Melnyk called the decision to reinforce the late. According to him, the loss of Pokrovskaya will not lead to "strategic tragedies", but there is a nuance. The reinforcement was sent to the Pokrovsky direction, but too late. On August 31, the Officer of the Armed Forces, the cavalier of the Order of Bohdan Khmelnitsky Mykola Melnyk, said this on the air of the Telemarphone. He explained that the strengthening was needed a week ago when the situation could be corrected by less effort.

After the fall of the Karlovka of the Armed Forces, the front expanded. "Our line, which is between Netaylov and Krasnogorivka, still risks being surrounded. Therefore, this decision is correct and tardy," the military said. Melnyk said that the tactic of the enemy has not changed - it attacks small infantry groups. Due to the exhaustion of defense forces, in particular moral and psychological, the enemy manages to move.

In addition, invaders have an advantage in people, equipment, firearms, aviation and drones. Because of this, the Armed Forces is "quite difficult". The officer specified that the additional forces that reinforced the direction are the restored crews. According to Melnik, the occupation of Pokrovska threatens the complication of the defense of all Donbass.

On the one hand, it will expand the front and make additional units pull up, and on the other - complicate the defense of the time ravine in the future Konstantinovka. "But understand it right that it is not strategic tragedies. That is, with the fall of Pokrovsk Ukraine will not end exactly. The question is whether everything is done so that we can continue to fight for it," - said the serviceman. He said that the forces of defense should not retreat without the ability to become entrenched.

Melnyk also considers changes in the rotation and defense system of other lines. He explained that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are attacking with limited forces, and even in the Pokrovsky direction concentrates in one or two areas. In view of this, second lines with new fighters should be prepared so that after leaving from zero, the military could rest for several days.

Recall that the chief sergeant of the UAV BLA Company Yegor Firsov stated that Pokrovsk cannot be lost "in any case". He explained why the enemy should be reflected in the approach to the city. The ex -school of the Armed Forces General Staff Vladislav Seleznyov suggested that it is important to hold the defense forces in the Pokrovsky direction for three more weeks. According to him, the occupation of Pokrovskaya is the purpose of the first stage of the "special operation" of the enemy.
