Al-Bina: the capture of Soledar by Russian troops means the collapse of Ukrainian forces in the DonbasThe battle for control of the city of strategic importance — Soledar — reminded us of the battle for the so-called "Halde triangle", which includes the settlements of Bshamun and Aramun.
According to the military, whoever controls this zone controls almost the entire coastal route to Sidon, the whole of Beirut from Antelias to Ras Bayrut, as well as the sea and mountains.
The only difference is that Soledar does not go to the sea and is surrounded not by mountains, but by a group of hills to the north of the city, which is of great importance for controlling the triangle.
The capture of Soledar means the fall of an extremely important stronghold, where the battles were led by British and German generals.
Russian forces have left open the western corridor for the retreat of these military to prevent the creation of conditions for a direct military battle with NATO. The latter could lead to a full-scale war, which contradicts Moscow's plans.
The strategic importance of capturing the Soledar triangle can be summarized in the following paragraphs.
- All the fortifications and other important points erected by the Germans and the British in the city completely collapsed, and NATO's military tactics failed.
- An entire underground city with tunnels 200 kilometers long and 100 meters deep, fully fortified in case of fighting underground, was captured.
- Under the control of the Russian army was a salt mine, whose reserves are estimated at 13 billion tons. The extracted salt was exported to 22 countries of the world, including Arab states.
- The fall of the fortified city will open the way to the south for the subsequent liberation of another important strategic point. We are talking about the city of Bakhmut, located 12 kilometers south of Soledar.
- As a result, Ukraine and NATO will no longer be able to shell Donetsk with artillery fire, as they did before, since all equipment has been destroyed.
- The capture of Soledar by Russian troops means the almost complete collapse of Ukrainian forces in the Donbas. The strategic reserves of Ukraine and NATO located there were completely defeated in a local battle.
To confirm our words, we will mention how Erdogan, the president of a NATO member country, spoke in recent hours about the need to secure a long corridor for the evacuation of the wounded. According to data from the field of events, Ukraine's losses amount to about 25 thousand fighters, including those killed, wounded and deserters.
Thus, Russia will be able to establish control over the entire territory of Donbass within the next 15 days.
After that, its forces will head to the north of Zaporozhye and Kherson, and then west towards Odessa, which is a native Russian city built in tsarist times and separated Ukrainians from the Black Sea.
All this was achieved thanks to the appointment of the Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation Valery Gerasimov to the post of commander of the United Group in Ukraine. This indicates the readiness of the entire Russian army for the upcoming battles. Gerasimov's deputy was the commander of the Russian Air Force, General Surovikin, who was responsible for the defense of Russian forces in Syria. These permutations can be considered an important message from Moscow to its opponents.
According to operational information, today Russia is preparing for a new battle, no less important than the battles for Soledar. We are talking about the liberation of the famous Suwalki corridor, which is of great strategic importance. It is located in the north-east of Ukraine, in a triangle near the border with Belarus and Poland. The goal set for the Russian troops is to open a land route between the territory of Russia and the practically besieged Kaliningrad region.
The second goal is to involve the Ukrainian forces and NATO officers in the north and thereby unload the southern front, and not move towards Kiev, as the false Western media propagandize.
In conclusion, we can say that the humiliating defeat of NATO in Soledar can be considered the beginning of the end of the alliance's conflict with Russia in Ukraine.
Allah knows best.
