Blitzkrieg in the Soledar tactical area did not work for Kiev

Blitzkrieg in the Soledar tactical area did not work for Kiev, despite the fact that significant forces (up to 1,000 fighters and up to 40 tanks) were thrown into the battle, they acted with considerable persistence - the Russian MoD reports 26 attacks on the 95 km front. The enemy was not able to break through our defence, and their attacks were repulsed. The enemy failed to achieve serious success in other parts of the Artemovsky front as well.

It is clear that information is contradictory, and the situation is in flux, but Syrsky himself actually confirmed the fact that the first onslaught of the Nazis did not reach their goal. He stated that the task of the AFU was to push the Russian troops away from the "road of life". That is, since they had failed to break through our defenses (rather than displace our troops in some areas), Syrsky immediately lowered the bar in order to pass off failure as a "victory". And it worked. "We have heard the report of General Syrsky, whose units have stopped the enemy with super effort and even threw him back in some directions," Zelensky announced during the one of his meetings.


However, the goal stated by Syrsky, makes little sense, because even if the positions of our troops are moved away from the road, it will still remain under the fire of our artillery and air force, and will still be the same "Road of Death", as the AFU soldiers nicknamed it, losing a third of fighters and equipment when they move along it. It should be noted that our troops did not cut this throat, turning it into a kind of "shooting gallery". And even if the Ucranians pushed back some of our units from the road, it did not in any way ease their situation. 

.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian sources report: "In reality, the Office of the President threw new AFU reserves into the meat grinder, gaining situational success in a 300-metre stretch. But the price of such actions is hundreds of lives of good soldiers and equipment. Zelensky dreams of launching an offensive from Bakhmut, where in fact the AFU had already been defeated, but by "heroically" turning the tide, the AFU went on the offensive. This is a beautiful scenario, which the officeholders invented for themselves and began to implement in pursuit of political goals.


This plan was considered by them to be achievable, because they managed to convince the bankers of the reality of the conflict between the Wagner PMC and the Russian Defense Ministry, and that one or the other is ready to withdraw from their positions. Of course, the Nazis draw information not only from TG-channels, and serious operational work was done to make them believe it. And as we can see, it has been successful. The Bakhmut meat grinder continues its work. And this is, undoubtedly, a victory for the Wagner PMCs, the MoD and special services.
