“Five kilometers left to close the trap at Bakhmut”



Despite heavy losses near Vuhledar, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are gathering forces for a counterattack. In particular, the 80th airmobile brigade was deployed there. Military expert colonel in the reserve Anatoly Matviychuk is sure that the enemy is forced to take such measures because of the colossal losses. According to him, hundreds of fighters have been lost by the Armed Forces of Ukraine near Ugledar in recent weeks.

The first to report that the Armed Forces of Ukraine transferred the airborne assault battalion of the 80th brigade near Ugledar was the Rybar information resource. The brigade was part of the offensive grouping in the direction of Kremennaya. In turn, militiaman and blogger Maxim Fomin suggested that the transfer of the 80th Airmobile Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine may indicate that the Ukrainian command is preparing a counterattack against "weakened by continuous attacks of marines."

According to him, despite the resilience of our units near Kremennaya, the enemy controls the situation and retreats to pre-prepared lines.

At the same time, military expert colonel in the reserve Anatoly Matviychuk believes that the Russian army has put the enemy in a stalemate.

- Our successes near Soledar, Artemovsk (Bakhmut) and Vugledar put the Armed Forces of Ukraine before a choice: surrender or strengthen? - said Matviychuk "MK". They decided to fortify themselves. Therefore, now they are withdrawing from other defense areas and transferring combat-ready units to the attacked areas. This also applies to the transfer of this tactical group.

I think that in this case no more than 300 people will be transferred. Perhaps they will be reinforced with some kind of heavy weapons, three or four tanks. No more.

Thus, they can not deliver a counterattack, but a counterattack. Counterattack - the actions of small units in a narrow direction, with a width of approximately no more than three kilometers.

What can they do? Well, they'll come out and shoot. Our marines are now "buried" in equipped positions. In addition, the marines are supported by a large amount of artillery. No wonder they move forward and create fire superiority over the enemy.

According to Anatoly Matviychuk, the number of casualties also speaks of the plight of the enemy. Ugledar, apparently, can repeat the sad experience of the Artemov and Soledar "meat grinders".

- I think that the enemy, out of desperation, throws into battle more and more troops, which we grind, - he said. - Losses of the enemy near Ugledar in recent weeks amounted to three hundred people ...

In another "hot spot" - Artemovsk - units of PMC "Wagner" also hold the initiative in their hands. A number of military experts believe that in the near future the enemy will be to the west if he does not take action in time, namely, if he does not begin to withdraw troops. "Musicians" are gradually squeezing out the Armed Forces of Ukraine, at the same time, the enemy has certain signs of demoralization due to the aggressive tactics of PMC "Wagner".

According to the press service of the PMC, the establishment of control over the village of Sakko and Vanzetti will allow developing an offensive against the nearby villages of Vasyukovka and Fedorovka, as well as increasing pressure on the nearby villages of Nikolaevka and Razdolovka... house and crush the enemy along Alabastrova Street. In the southeastern part of the city, the fighters are advancing from Trubny Headquarters to the west ...

From the south, there is an advance towards the Sobachevka area, the "musicians" are expanding the zone of control. From the side of the liberated village of Kleshcheevka, PMC forces are advancing towards the southwestern outskirts of Bakhmut, the village of Krasnoe and the Konstantinovka-Bakhmut highway.

A number of military experts note that pressure on the Armed Forces of Ukraine along all lines of combat contact is gradually bearing fruit. Several promising areas have been formed with the possibility of flank coverage and further encirclement of Ukrainian units.

According to Anatoly Matviychuk, the trap the enemy fell into will close in the coming days.

- There are 5-7 kilometers left for the trap to close at Bakhmut, - he said. - The enemy, in fact, is already surrounded. The Armed Forces of Ukraine in this area are under full fire control. I think that within 7-8 days we will get the results.

At the same time, Matviychuk recalled that after the completion of these operations, the fighters who liberated Ugledar, Soledar and Artemovsk would be sent to rest, and reserves would take their place.

- It was not in vain that we carried out a partial military mobilization. We have reserves. Units that have reduced their combat effectiveness will be withdrawn to the rear, and combat-ready units will take their place. This has already been worked out. We will change and continue to destroy the enemy.
