關於烏軍堅守第聶伯河東岸橋頭堡的最新報道
【老看客按】Daily kos是在過去一年多以來本人了解俄烏戰爭最新進展的最有價值的英文網站之一。其尊重事實、客觀評述、即時更新,令人印象深刻。現將今日更新中關於烏軍渡河在第聶伯河東岸建立橋頭堡、並遭俄軍炮擊的部分摘譯如下,以便幫助網友們了解最新的進展。今天的更新是美國東部時間下午4點31分鍾完成的。根據DAILY KOS的一貫做法,如果有新的重大變化,他們會做及時的更新。

很難相信,烏克蘭在赫爾鬆城對麵的第聶伯河東岸建立的小規模陣地將會成為收複該地區領土的真正推動力。 由於沒有任何類型的功能性橋梁可供利用、並且俄軍的炮火可以覆蓋整個可以搭設浮橋的範圍,烏軍用駁船穿梭過河的部隊以安東尼夫卡大橋為掩護在河東岸建立了橋頭堡,但要發揮更大的輻射作用似乎不容易。
然而,盡管這小股烏軍很不起眼,他們不僅在通往奧列什基(Oleshky)的路上與俄軍交戰,而且在頑強地守護著橋頭堡,似乎很難被推回到河對岸。
周五,俄軍用兩枚伊斯坎德爾短程彈道導彈襲擊了烏克蘭的橋頭堡陣地,現暫停了炮擊。 這裏的“短程”是彈道導彈術語,該導彈的射程仍然有大約 500 公裏。襲擊烏軍的這兩枚導彈很可能是從克裏米亞縱深處的某個地方發射的,每枚導彈都攜帶一個質量在 700 到 800 公斤之間的高爆彈頭。
然而,導彈襲擊之後,烏軍基地似乎依然運作正常,人員和武器裝備都在活動。 如此,要麽是伊斯坎德爾導彈射偏了,要麽是烏軍確實已在橋頭堡位置紮穩了根。
看起來,俄軍似乎還嚐試了用不同的方法重新控製赫爾鬆海濱地區,但也未能取得好的效果。
到目前為止,烏軍維持安東尼夫卡橋頭堡陣地的能力令人驚訝,但如果該橋頭堡的作用不僅僅是用於吸引俄軍的攻擊,烏軍將需要找到一個辦法來鞏固這一陣地,並沿著 第聶伯羅河左岸建立更多的此類橋頭堡。

It’s difficult to believe the small Ukrainian position established on the east bank of the Dnipro River across from Kherson will turn into any kind of genuine push to regain territory in this region. Without any kind of functional bridge, and with Russian artillery in range of any pontoon bridge that might be established, it seems unlikely that what Ukraine has shuttled across the river on barges represents a force sufficient to move much beyond their literal bridgehead in the shadow of the Antonivka Bridge.
However, even this small group sure does seem to be making a pest of itself. In addition to fighting with Russian forces along the road to Oleshky, the Ukrainian troops seem stubbornly hard to push back across the river.
On Friday, Russia took a break from shelling the Ukrainian position long enough to hit the Ukrainian base with a pair of Iskander short-range ballistic missiles. The “short range” in this case is in ballistic missile terms, as this weapon is still good for about 500 km. It’s likely that this pair was fired from somewhere well down in Crimea, Each of the missiles carries a high explosive warhead massing between 700 and 800 kg.
However, following the strike the Ukrainian base still appears to be up and active, with both men and machines visibly moving about. Either the Iskanders missed, or the Ukrainian forces are really dug in well at their bridgehead position.
It appears that Russia made another attempt to regain control of things along the Kherson waterfront using a different method. That one also did not go well. (Trigger warning for very visible violence against individuals.)
Ukraine’s ability to maintain this position so far is astounding, but if the Antonivka bridgehead is going to do more than absorb Russian attacks, Ukraine is going to need a way to reinforce this position and to establish other such bridgeheads along the “left” bank of the Dnipro.
