看油管洋人网民对Kursk之战的评论

洋人比华人关注俄乌战争。我对俄乌战争，只是特别喜欢看战场小视频，类似于喜欢看斗蛐蛐，我并不关注战场背后的故事，更不关心政治。

不过看起来，由于特朗普今年十一月竞选很可能要赢，而他承诺他当总统就立即终止俄乌战争。而共济会并不希望俄乌停战，所以怂恿则林司机入侵克尔斯克。以此激怒普京，这样十一月特朗普当上总统，他想让俄乌停战就没那么容易了。

As the Ukrainian advance into Kursk enters it's second week, we're seeing a change in how that battle is unfolding. Early on, Ukraine was facing mostly cons**ts and border guards but recently, experienced units have been moved in to try to stop their advance. The 810th Guards Marine Brigade was one of those and in today's video we review their comments on the operation so far and look at two ambushes they say they've conducted.

The tactic of wandering around until you successfully draw fire is kinda crazy

they need to stabilise the advance and let Russians try to break their defences and/or tacticaly retreat when necessary so they don't lose so much equipment and manpower.

This is really useful commentary - well-informed and balanced. That's why I subscribe here and not to some of the politically-driven channels and often just speculate wildly.

The 810th is the ”evil twin” of the Ukrainian 36th Marines, since it was formed mainly from Ukrainian marines defecting during the invasion of Crimea (the marines not defecting eventually formed the 36th). Many of which are still serving, ten years later.

As always, i appreciate the information your videos put out. Thanks, and keep up the great work

Always look forward to these videos, the unbiased opinions and evaluations are always welcome.

Ukrainian Armed Forces units are being withdrawn from Donetsk Oblast, leaving entire strips of the front to their fate. the occupation of Pokrovsk is a matter of the near future, and Toretsk is living out its last days.

it's hard to extrapolate one experience to all the great scheme of this battle

Successful ambushes are common during an exploitation phase when units are running willy nilly to gain undefended spaces and objectives. The Russian Marines just caught a light UA recon force in exploitation phase with its guard down, nothing special.

Russia also ambushed their own Convoy. Russia is attacking anything that moves due to broken chain of command and communications.

Those were light armored scout vehicles.

I no longer take anything from Russian with a grain of salt, but an entire silo. Of course, Ukraine is not some magical source of truth either

These are formations that haven't been on the line pushing through Ukraine defenses. Ukraine needs their brigade on the line they're desperate though so they made a stupid decision

Brilliant analysis.

if you are in another country you will get ambushed every now and then. Ukraine likely expected more resistance and didn't expect to get so far into russia.

I wonder if this Kursk interdiction won't result in a salient where the Russians cut off Ukrainian forces & decimate Ukrainian forces or force them to surrender

Russia doesn’t have Marines. They have Naval Infantry.

after 10 years of this conflict, Ukraine's military would have learned how to move troops without exposing themselves to simple attacks like this.

the 810th participated in seizing crimea back in 2014, and there were ukrainian units that switched sides to the russians back then, but nothing about forming a new brigade from them.

Whilst the entire 1,300 km Front in Donbas is collapsing. The entire Kursk operation hasn't forced Russian transfers but has stripped Ukrainian soldiers from the Donbas and accelerated the last dwindling supply of Ukraine's most trained and motivated soldiers.

Ukraine basically sacrificing it's best trained troops in Kursk, while eastern front falling apart under Russian offensive. Strategical mistake by Zelensky.

Call this war what it is and stop the hypocrisy. It's Russia against NATO and not Ukraine.

The Kursk incursion was NOT a surprise. Russian forces had seen the Ukrainian buildup and accurately predicted a Ukrainian incursion.

it seems the Ukrainians did achieve some level of operational surprise. Why? Several possible explanations: 1. Over-confident Russian military leadership who under-estimated Ukrainian capabilities? 2. Maybe they knew the incursion was coming, but thought it would be later and were surprised by how quickly the Ukrainians got moving and kept moving? 3. Maybe it’s a sort of trap? The Russian high command is clearly focused on capturing the Southern Donbas. Maybe they’re happy to let the Ukrainians waste some of their best troops capturing some meaningless rural villages in Kursk and are just holding them there while the main Russian push goes on in the Donbas.

going in an ambush knowing that surviving especially if vehicle is damaged is almost slim to nun, it is a flat field, field with enemy soldiers, with drones, good optics, armored vehicles, also drones with bombs flying everywhere.
