I'm sure Grigb will go over it in more detail, but few most interesting points: - UA recon groups are crossing Zherebets north of Torskie/ Zarichne - forces from Yampil and Dobryshevo withdrew to Liman - the cauldron is not only closed, but shrinking fast - this is my impression only, but it looks like UA is not going to storm Torskie/ Zarichne directly, but also just encircle it. Both roads to the chokepoint seem to be under UA fire, or even direct control It seems that the Russians will not be able to organize defense along the Zherebets River 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russian artillery has pre-sighted pretty much everything Response time of the artillery is only couple of minutes I continue to think that the next Ukrainian master stroke will be a 72 hour air and drone campaign that systematically destroys these Russian guns, forcing the survivors into mainly ineffective 'shoot and scoot' mode. While the RUAF flails helplessly, flying from distant bases. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, then the whole Svatovo line is untenable, and UA will be seriously threatening Severodonetsk. Fingers crossed they can exploit this upcoming victory to the maximum. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's buried a dozen pages back now, but I posted some stuff and maps about how limited the approaches are to Kreminna, and how it might be better to go around the north (south is the Sivierski Donets). But obviously, the guys on the ground might prove me entirely wrong! P.S. If Steve or @BFCElvis gives me a holiday for the (buried link) above, it will be worth it. I regret nothing. Make it loud!

Interestingly, it seems RU counter attack was able to reach Torske - units from 503 mr regiment of 19 mr division of 58 CAA are in Torkse now. According to Rybar map they came not from Kreminna but from exactly from Krasnorechensk direction (the only safe direction yesterday). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is usually forward UKR infantry platoon operating as combat patrol in front of the main force. So, the area north of Torsek is occupied by UKR infantry unit. I am going through posts so I might post something useful soon as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongLeftFlank Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 https://jamestown.org/program/lessons-of-the-ukraine-war-thus-far/ Russia has fired more than 3,800 missiles against Ukraine ... in large part, by so-called “theater of operations” missiles—mid-range missiles that can strike targets thousands of kilometers away (e.g., Kalibr and X-101). But such a quantity of missiles, which is much more than the United States has launched in total in the past 40 years, did not allow Russian forces to change warfighting dynamics in a favorable way—by failing to paralyze railways logistics, interdict Western military supply flow to Ukraine or gain air superiority. The Ukrainian experience has made clear that precision missiles of lesser range combined with accurate intelligence can make a world of difference on the battlefield. Primarily, this concerns the employment of Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System (GMLRS) projectiles guided by GPS with an 85-kilometer range. The US has provided Ukraine with at least 2,100 projectiles of this type.... Basically, successful mass employment of GMLRS by Ukraine has proven the validity of the US Army’s AirLand Battle doctrine of the 1980s. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grigb Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 7 hours ago, FancyCat said: What is BARS-13? Why is it called the Russian Legion in a army of a majority Russian? Has anyone actually been able to figure out if there is a defense line in Svatove? I know we know Ukraine was supposedly pushing units to Zaporizhia Oblast but it's strange how the same leaking of info isn't occurring in Lugansk oblast. BARS is acronym for Combat Army Reserve of Country - it is kind of volunteer Territorial Battalions. It is under MO but they consist mainly of RU Nats volunters. Each BARS unit (ussualy around battalion but in theory could be up to regiment) has a number (hence BARS-13) and name (hence Russian Legion) According to Mashkkovets after retreat from Izum RU tried to build defenses around red lines marked below Regarding the supposed UKR push at Zaporozhye it is a very strange thing. Realisticaly after Izum UKR were not able to start a third offensive along completly different axis. However, for some reason RU focused on this direction and started to reinforce it while claiming UKR were about to attack there. Information about the current offensive was available all the time. But it was not very popular or much discussed. You need to keep in mind that for RU it was just usual battles around Lyman. For some reason they did not believe something serious could happen. They were fooled by their own propaganda (including RU command). Everybody in Lyman claimed that UKR suffered horrendous losses (see one of the post above about forests full of UKR dead soldiers). So, RU lived in the fantasy world where UKR almost ran out of steam and its North grouping is about to collapse due to the huge losses. And when RU were given the topic of Glorious Referendums, they stopped thinking about Lyman front at all. Untill it was too late. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll find a way and be not just warmer but stronger too before this winter is through. And I'm sure most people on this board are grateful to Germany for their support for Ukraine in these past two seasons. Surely the western alliance isn't coming apart now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
