"#Syrskyi was also credited with the execution of a plan to push #Russia’s artillery far enough away from the north-eastern city of #Kharkiv to spare civilians who had been living under constant fire, before he was said to have masterminded the counteroffensive that broke through Russian lines and liberated the wider region." #UkraineWar #UkraineOffensive

Kolonel-generaal Oleksandr #Syrskyi, noemt de situatie in en om #Bachmoet "extreem gespannen"

"Ondanks flinke verliezen heeft de vijand de best getrainde eenheden van de Wagnergroep ingezet. Zij proberen door de verdedigingslinies te breken en omsingelen de stad".

Russische troepen hebben deze maand over een groot deel van de duizend kilometer lange frontlinie de aanval ingezet. Als Bachmoet valt, zal dat vooral een mentale klap zal zijn voor de Oekraïners. #Nos

De commandant van de Oekraïense grondtroepen Oleksandr #Syrskyi heeft #Bachmoet bezocht, om het moreel bij de militairen op te krikken. Hij sprak onder meer met Oekraïense legereenheden die de stad en omliggende dorpen verdedigen.

Syrskyi heeft een heldenstatus in #Oekraïne sinds de #oorlog. Hij wordt beschouwd als het brein achter de nederlaag van de Russische strijdkrachten toen die aan het begin van de oorlog oprukten naar #Kyiv en in de regio #Charkiv in september. https://nos.nl/l/2465445#UPDATE-container-67725361
