The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation was knocked out of Kharkiv region through the training that was arranged for Putin - Roszmi

Last September, large-scale military exercises "East-2022" were held in the Russian Federation, which collected 50,000 military and thousands of military equipment. The rapid liberation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine almost all of the Kharkiv region in September 2022 may be connected with the conduct of military exercises "East-2022". About it writes The Moscow Times on June 21, citing a source close to the Russian Defense Ministry.

According to the newspaper, the escape of the Russian military from Kupyansk, Izum, Liman and other settlements partially occurred due to the transfer of combat units of the invaders' army into the Far East Military District for the sake of East-2022 exercises, which weakened the Russian front. The training took place from September 1 to September 7 thousands of kilometers from the combat touch line.

They were attended by the head of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation Sergey Shogu, the head of the General Staff of the Russian Federation Valery Gerasimov, as well as Russian President Vladimir Putin. 50,000 Russian servicemen, hundreds of aviation, about 5000 BMPs, tanks and other military equipment were involved in the exercises.

According to the authors of the publication, it was on the last day of the exercises that the counter -offensive of the Armed Forces started, which resulted in the release of 400 square meters of Ukrainian land. Recall that on June 21, Bild Military Viewer Julian Ripke suggested that Ukrainian troops could launch an offensive due to the dried Kakhovka reservoir. At the same time, the German expert has doubts whether the equipment will now be able to drive there.
