What does the release of commanders of 17 and 20 Army Corps - Major of the Armed Forces (Video)

To spread: the veteran and the reserve major Alexei Hetman explained the possible reasons for the displacement of the commander of the 17th Army Corps of Vladimir Silenko and the 20th Army Corps of Maxim Kitugin. Such decisions of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are quite acceptable in the conditions of corps reform and during the war, when the situation changes and may be lost.

Replacement of commanders of 17 and 20 buildings gives a certain signal of the rest of the topophiors, heard in a comment by the hetman on the air of the Media NV. In this way, the General Staff shows others that it is better to perform the tasks. Hetman answered the question of a journalist who was interested in whether the release of commanders was associated with the loss of positions at the front. The expert explained that there was nothing extraordinary and should not panic.

In addition, it is noted that the commander of any level can be released both in peaceful and in wartime. "During the war, not only during the war, there are some replacements of leaders: not only corps, [but] battalions, brigades, mouth, platoons. It is not necessary to panic here and believe that something happened extremely bad," the hetman said. Commanders could really lose their position because of bad organized defense, and therefore Syrsky shifted them from office, added an expert.

In addition, the hetman reminded how responsibility for success and failure on the front is distributed: by the results of fighting, different people are punished or awarded. "Sirensky is more visible. When some successful actions take place, it is due to the middle -level commanders. When some not very good actions occur, the commander of the corps is guilty," the speaker said.

In addition, the hetman noted that the army moves to the corps system, which is somewhat unusual for the military, and it is likely that the commanders were "not ready". The Sirsky Commander and the General Staff, meanwhile, are watching the situation, have reacted in time and can now appoint new people who are understanding the work of the unit, he added. It is likely that they will appoint one of the commanders of brigades who are in 17 and 20 buildings.

"So, the person has not coped and should be replaced with others, which I am sure, there are in these buildings," - summed up the expert. It should be noted that on September 15, the Media "Ukrainian Pravda", with reference to its own sources, reported that the General Staff had shifted from the positions of commander of 17 and 20 corps of the Armed Forces. On September 16, it was confirmed by the sources of "Public".

At the same time, the 17 Corps held positions in the Zaporizhzhya direction, at which the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation occupied the village of Kamianske and part of the village of Plavni (the shore of the Dnieper, on the way to Zaporozhye). Meanwhile, the 20 Corps was in the Novopavlovsky direction, which also has the promotion of the occupying army. On the network you can find information about units that have become parts of the buildings.

The Facebook page of the 17th Corps states that it includes 65 OMBR, 110 OMBR, 128 OGSBR. Composition 23 of the building - 17 OMBR, 23 OMBR, 31 OMBR, 33 OMBR, 141 OMBR. Focus wrote about the army reform and the transition to the corps, which began to be implemented in the fall of 2024. One of the first General Staff created the 1st Army Corps: it included the teams of the National Guard. There were also 3 buildings on the basis of 3 SSBR Armed Forces and other units.
