Prepare to retreat to Crimea. Why do the Russians dig trenches on the peninsula
And this is logical, because no landing from the sea will do. For this purpose, the Armed Forces do not have the appropriate means, such as VDK and the SDC, as well as this scenario threatens high losses for very dubious results. Small DRGs may penetrate from the sea, but they do not need to plow the beaches in Evpatoria and Saki, and other measures should be taken. It was for this reason that I perceive these lines of defense as a corruption component.
However, the satellite images of these lines of defense were published and, incredibly, near the village of Vitine, 15 km from Evpatoria, they have already been placed artillery, for fire through the sea! Tow howled 152mm on the Crimea! Well, the Russians seriously consider the scenario of such a large -scale landing that they begin to place artillery in the Crimea, which is lacking in Russian occupation troops at other bridges, for example, in the same Zaporizhzhya direction.
At the same time, the placement of artillery involves both the installation of the combat unit and providing it with a ammunition. That is, while in the left-bank grouping and deficiency of the DC, the Crimea is boraced to prevent the phenomenally-malodial scenario? On the other hand, it should be noted that the occupiers are thoroughly boraced in the north of the peninsula, a triangle of Medvedivka-Janko-Armenk.
They delved near Lake Sivash, near Medvedivka, as well as Maslovo and Novoivanivka, along the North Crimean Canal near Armenian. If you evaluate the scale of their defense lines and the contingent that is now located on the peninsula, you just won't have enough people to completely close all the positions they arrange. The current contingent in Crimea is one of the smallest throughout the war zone.
But this can be concluded that the Russian command plans from the southern bridgehead, in which the measured indentation, which they will have to provide the lines of defense in the main south of Ukraine. They drive the bulk of troops to the Crimea. After that, the Rov command plans to keep "circular" defense using an existing resource. Thus, they intend to turn Crimea into an impregnable fortress. But most interestingly, it will never become for them. The grave is yes. But no more.
