Hell on the Dnieper bank. As the fighting for the bridgehead is described by the Armed Forces fighters who fight there

The bridgehead on the left bank of the Dnieper for the Armed Forces fighters turned into a real hell. So they describe the military observer Konstantin Mashovtsa what is happening, the Armed Forces fighters who fight on this heel. In the Dnieper direction, intense battles in the area of ​​the Ukrainian bridgehead on the left bank of the Dnieper near the village of Kryninka are ongoing. The enemy makes considerable efforts, despite the losses to push our advanced units in the river.

It has been carrying out almost continuous attacks and assault actions for more than 4 days by the 104th Airborne Assault Division (DSD). Its units of the 328th and 337th Airborne Assault Regiments attaches the positions of the Armed Forces in this NP. Both from the southwestern direction (from the village of Kozachi Lageri, along the coastal road), and through a forest, located south of the village. Next it will be a little unusual . . . The direct language of my inside . . . ". . .

The bridgehead now holds exclusively on the mines . . . The DSSD Division began to arrive on the BMD right on the forest position and plant a landing. We were urgently attracted to the drainage. We flew in the drain, because there was no choice. And mines were refined a few weeks before, to a high percentage of explosions, it was necessary immediately . . . Currently, all the assault stops on the mines.

4 days they attack unquestionably, But we stabilized the situation a little and do not come to the positions… and. In fact, here is hell. I go . . . and in a week and a half lost up to 10 APCs, up to 10 tanks and 20-25 bm. The assaults continue. Today is the first day when the storm is limited to the 2nd APC. Unfortunately, our promotion (meaning on the left bank Fighting on the left bank of the Dnieper. It was written yesterday, December 12 . . . That is, General Teplinsky did not lie.

He continues to throw in continuous attacks in the area of ​​the village of Kryninka of his direct subordinates-parts and units of the 104th DSSD (in his permanent position he is the commander of the Russian airborne troops / VAT), to only eliminate the Ukrainian bridgehead.

Who forgot-I will remind… 104-A Airborne-assault Division belongs to the so-called "newly formed" (well, or "overwhelmed") VAT divisions of the Russian Federation, deployed within the general process of deployment of strategic reserves of the enemy. From the beginning of its formation, it was called the 104th DSD of the mobilization reserve (MR) and its composition included, to put it mildly, quite "strange" parts and units, equipped with "mobics".

But, over time, the Russian command has taken more seriously for the process of obtaining this connection of a more or less acceptable level of combat capability.
