Pisky hloov ob peb zaug thaum lub sij hawm ntxov tshaj plaws ntawm kev tsov rog Russia-Ukraine rov qab rau xyoo 2014 thiab 2015, tab sis cov Ukrainians kawg yeej. Ib pab tub rog ntawm Ukrainian navy lub 56th Motorized Brigade khawb hauv ... thiab tos.
Tam sim no cov Russians tab tom sim, dua, coj Pisky. Kev ua phem hauv Lavxias tshiab nyob rau hnub tsis ntev los no tau hloov lub zos mus rau "Lub ntuj raug txim," raws li Ukrainian Thawj Tswj Hwm Volodymyr Zelensky.
Cov Russians muaj qhov zoo tshaj plaws firepower nyob rau hauv Pisky, zoo li lawv ua nyob rau sab hnub tuaj Ukraine. Ntau artillery. Ntau lub foob pob hluav taws. Kev txhawb nqa huab cua ntau dua. Lawv kuj muaj tub rog ntau dua nyob hauv cheeb tsam. Zelensky tau lees tias "Peb tseem tsis tuaj yeem rhuav tshem cov tub rog Lavxias kom zoo dua hauv cov phom loj thiab cov neeg ua haujlwm," Zelensky lees paub.
Tab sis fortifications suav rau ntau heev. Lub 56th Motorized Brigade lub trenches thiab earthworks yog pom nyob rau hauv coj mus muag satellite imagery, crisscrossing Pisky lub tso tseg thiab ruined vaj tse.
Cov tub rog tiv thaiv zoo. Entrenched tiv thaiv. Cov khoom xyaw tseem ceeb rau kev sib ntaus sib tua hnyav, ntshav.
Ib tug thawj-tes account ntawm kev sib ntaus sib tua, los ntawm ib tug tub rog Ukrainian, tau tshaj tawm hauv social media. "Qhov no yog lub ntuj raug txim ntawm cov nqaij grinder, qhov twg lub battalion tsuas tuav rov qab kev tawm tsam nrog lawv lub cev," tus tub rog sau.
Pisky cov neeg tiv thaiv tiv thaiv kev phom sij uas tsis muaj qhov kawg, nrog ntau li 300 152-millimeter plhaub poob rau hauv luv luv. Qhov phem tshaj, cov tub rog uas muaj peev xwm ntau pua tus tub rog tsis muaj txoj hauv kev los tua cov phom loj. Lawv cov riam phom hnyav tshaj plaws yog ob peb mortars, tus tub rog tau thov. Tsis haum rau artillery-on-artillery counterbattery.
"Yog tsis muaj kev sib ntaus sib tua, nws hloov mus rau hauv cov nqaij grinder tsis muaj kev xav, qhov twg peb cov tub rog infantry tau nce hauv ib hnub," tus tub rog sau.
Nws piav txog kev sib ntaus sib tua. Lavxias teb sab tub rog tsoo los ntawm Ukrainian kab. Ukrainian battalion xa nyob rau hauv nws reserves. "Lub ciam teb mus rau txoj haujlwm, kaw qhov kev tawg thiab, tom qab tsib feeb, tsuas yog ib tus ntawm 15 tus neeg tseem nyob tsis tau."
Ukraine nyob rau hauv lub hlis tsis ntev los no tau txais ntau pua lub niaj hnub artillery systems los ntawm nws txawv teb chaws cov phoojywg, suav nrog 18 ntawm lub teb chaws Yelemees qhov zoo tshaj plaws PzH-2000 taug qab howitzers thiab-tej zaum feem ntau yog li-16 American High-Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems.
Tab sis yog tias tus tub rog tus account yog qhov tseeb, tsis muaj ib qho ntawm cov kab ke no pab tiv thaiv Pisky. Nws yog ua tau Ukrainian commanders yog prioritizing sib sib zog nqus ntaus tawm tsam Lavxias teb sab khoom dumps thiab txuas hniav nyob rau hauv Russia rear cheeb tsam - tshwj xeeb tshaj yog nyob rau yav qab teb Ukraine.
Nws tsis yog tias Ukrainian pab tub rog tsis muaj artillery. Nws yog tias Ukrainian commanders siv lawv cov phom loj ntawm qhov chaw ntawm lawv xaiv. Thiab Pisky tsis yog ib tug ntawm lawv.
Yog li ntawd Russia artillery pounds lub zos nrog impunity. Lavxias teb sab infantry maj nyob rau hauv mus siv tej qhov khoob qhov phom tshuab nyob rau hauv Ukrainian kab. Ukrainian infantry counterattack thiab tuav rov qab cov Russians - tab sis raug kev txom nyem txaus ntshai thaum lub artillery qhib hluav taws dua.
Ib tug yeej rau Ukraine, tab sis ib tug Pyrrhic ib. Tej zaum yuav muaj ib qho taw qhia thaum yeej, ntawm tus nqi no, tsis muaj nqis ntxiv lawm. Ukrainian lub tswv yim, txog tam sim no nyob rau theem tam sim no ntawm kev ua tsov ua rog, tau ua lag luam qhov chaw rau lub sijhawm - los ntshav cov tub rog Lavxias thaum maj mam rov qab mus thoob plaws lub plhaub-pocked struts.
Thaum twg Ukraine yuav pauv Pisky? Tej zaum thaum Ukrainian commanders suav lawv poob ntau lub zog sib ntaus sib tua khaws cia lub zos tshaj cov Russians poob sim mus coj nws.
