1
00:00:01,020 --> 00:00:04,560
The population of Staromaiorske,
which was liberated the other day,
2
00:00:04,560 --> 00:00:09,240
was approximately 500 people before the
full-scale invasion of the Russian occupants.
3
00:00:09,900 --> 00:00:14,580
The population of Staromlynivka, which
is located to the south - was more than
4
00:00:14,580 --> 00:00:19,680
2000 inhabitants before the invasion, according
to official data, the Ukrainian defense forces
5
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:25,140
are already 4 km away from it. That is,
these are not just place names on the map,
6
00:00:25,140 --> 00:00:29,460
like the notorious "village" of Sacco and
Vanzetti with a population of 3 people,
7
00:00:29,460 --> 00:00:35,220
the liberation of which was once boasted by the
Russian side. Ukraine is liberating its "living"
8
00:00:35,220 --> 00:00:42,120
settlements, yes, destroyed by Russian occupiers,
but real ones. This is important to remember.
9
00:00:43,260 --> 00:00:48,540
Staromlynivka in the hands of the Russian invaders
is an important stronghold in the security buffer
10
00:00:48,540 --> 00:00:54,420
zone. Behind this relatively large settlement
begins the notorious "line of General Surovikin",
11
00:00:54,420 --> 00:01:00,240
literally in one line. This is the Berdiansk
direction. There was little to no security
12
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:06,120
presence in the direction towards Tokmak.
Literally behind the village Rabotino begins
13
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:11,700
the very "line". That is, the enemy considered
the Ukrainian offensive there - unlikely.
14
00:01:12,300 --> 00:01:16,260
And now he is constrained in
this area and can not leave it.
15
00:01:16,260 --> 00:01:21,660
When there is no security zone - then by cutting
the defense line, you make the entire defense
16
00:01:21,660 --> 00:01:27,480
architecture behind it start to "crack at the
seams". Yes, the Ukrainian defense forces are
17
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:34,080
suffering losses there. But an offensive is always
a loss - sometimes up to 30% and sometimes more.
18
00:01:34,740 --> 00:01:38,400
However, Ukrainian forces are
steadily advancing in this area.
19
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:44,100
Thanks to the use of Western equipment, the
losses in personnel are much lower than expected.
20
00:01:44,940 --> 00:01:51,120
The enemy is facing a dilemma. He cannot leave
the direction to Tokmak, it is now his center
21
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:56,040
of gravity, that is, what destroys the entire
architecture of defense in the defeat of one
22
00:01:56,040 --> 00:02:02,820
section, or throw forces to Staromlynivka. Not to
mention other areas, including hypothetical ones.
23
00:02:03,420 --> 00:02:08,520
But behind the words "throw forces" there is such
a fundamental thing as logistical and material
24
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:14,820
capabilities. That is, if the next 100 "lancets"
arrived on the southern front, you decide where to
25
00:02:14,820 --> 00:02:19,800
send them: to Tokmak or to Berdiansk; under
Rabotino or under Staromlynivka; to divide
26
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:26,220
them 50/50, or 80 - to one direction and 20 - to
another, or in general - to throw all 100 at once.
27
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:31,860
Such "dilemmas" the enemy solves every day, and
sometimes they appear before him every minute.
28
00:02:31,860 --> 00:02:36,900
The task of the Ukrainian General Staff is
to force the enemy to send "lancets" in the
29
00:02:36,900 --> 00:02:40,620
direction that the Ukrainian General
Staff wants, not the Russian one.
30
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,120
In other words, it aims to
outmaneuver the enemy strategically.
31
00:02:45,780 --> 00:02:52,740
That is, to beat him. Not to make it clear where
the real schwerpunkt is. Schwerpunkt is the point
32
00:02:52,740 --> 00:02:58,500
of the main application of efforts. I really
don't understand where it is, looking at the map.
33
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:03,960
And you don't understand either, neither should
the enemy - and this is the most important thing.
34
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:09,360
And this schwerpunkt may eventually fall
neither on Tokmak, nor on Berdiansk.
35
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:15,360
Now the Ukrainian fighters are consolidating on
the new borders, cleaning up the liberated points,
36
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:21,180
comprehending the new experience. It is important
that the flow of shells and ammunition does
37
00:03:21,180 --> 00:03:27,480
not stop, as well as the flow of equipment. As
military commander Zaluzhnyi said : "any equipment
38
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:33,300
is designed for combat, not for parades".
In combat, it is a target for the enemy,
39
00:03:33,300 --> 00:03:38,700
which means it can be lost. The question is
not to save the equipment, for that you need
40
00:03:38,700 --> 00:03:42,960
not to fight, but to save the lives of the
crews, because people are the main thing.
41
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:48,360
As tankers say: a man is steel,
and a tank is just a piece of iron.
