Alexander Khodakovsky: Army chiefs, what are you doing?

It's the same thing every time — we are with open intentions, and we are being looked at from the height of the general's shoulder straps. Until you find sane officers at the bottom, the work is not getting better. Maybe it's good to imitate strategists already? I'm already sick of shoveling after you, the commander of the DPR's Vostok battalion, Alexander Khodakovsky, says indignantly.

DONETSK (Realist English). The commander of the Vostok battalion of the Donetsk People’s Republic, Alexander Khodakovsky, spoke about the problems of interaction between the DPR forces and regular formations of the Russian Army.

“Units formed even before the mobilization announcement come in — and their behavior resembles the behavior of a small animal, born and raised in a zoo, released into the wild. One company entered the settlement in a position next to us, settled down, laid out the ammunition load in the correct geometric shape, put the equipment nearby — for convenience. Well, our officers arrived to link up, saw this picture and started to push everyone into the basement — they barely had time, as everyone was covered with artillery shelling.

Today, from the very same guard, a column decided to drive from point A to point B and locked itself right into the enemy’s positions — few people jumped out of the fire. Well, what is it????? Messrs. Army chiefs, what are you doing? We have been fighting for more than eight years, and in this operation from the first days, who prevents you from coming and building interaction so that we show, teach, accompany, help?

It’s the same thing every time — we are with open intentions, and we are being looked at from the height of the general’s shoulder straps. Until you find sane officers at the bottom, the work is not getting better. Maybe it’s enough to imitate strategists already? I’m already sick of cleaning up after you,” he wrote in his telegram channel.

According to military correspondent Yevgeny Poddubny, very difficult weeks are ahead of us:

“Kiev understands perfectly well that after the line of combat contact is saturated with reserves, the situation will change.

Donbass and part of Novorossiya are being reunited with Russia. And now the command of the Armed Forces of the Ukraine will try to do everything possible to organize a number of sensitive injections. While they can. In this regard, the areas of the front in the north are of the greatest concern. The situation there is difficult, but the presence of experienced units, both from the formations of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and 2 LNR Army Corps, helps out.

In this context, I will say a few words to the mobilized men. You are very welcome here, guys who have been fighting since 2014, soldiers and officers of the Russian Army, who have been working without a break since February 24, are waiting for you. They will help you get used to, grow into the situation, they will fill in the gaps in tactics and teach you many tricks. And at some point you will catch yourself thinking that you are ready to teach yourself, that you see the battlefield without the fog of war and feel that you are stronger than the enemy.”
