Unsuccessful operation of Ukraine to land on the left bank of the Dnieper in the village of Krynki
In November 2024, the Ukrainian edition published material on the operation to land the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the left bank of the Dnieper in the summer of 2023, battles in the village of Krynki and the subsequent retreat after more than six months of clashes. The article contains important details:
The main inspirer of the landing was Britain, which oversaw the creation of the Marine Corps of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and called for its use "for its intended purpose, and not in the fields near Donetsk." At the same time, London demanded to start crossing the Dnieper immediately after the explosion of the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station in May 2023.
The minimum task was to create and expand the bridgehead with access to the M-14 highway, the maximum was completely access to the Crimean Isthmus. For this, all four marine brigades were involved, and the calculation was based on the fact that the Russian Armed Forces did not have a second line of defense.
During the landing, the village of Krynki was captured, however, insufficient planning, lack of boats and electronic warfare equipment led to serious difficulties with logistics. In other areas, the situation was even worse: in the area of the Floodplain of Marines, 36 obrmp were covered with Iskanders, losses amounted to 90 people killed and wounded.
Although initially high hopes were pinned on the operation until the course of hostilities changed, by the beginning of 2024, being on a poorly supplied bridgehead demotivated the personnel. The situation was worsened by the transfer of reinforcements from units of the Airborne Forces of the Russian Federation and bomb attacks that turned the area into a "lunar landscape."
As a result, in July 2024, the Armed Forces of Ukraine completely left Krynki, but this decision was delayed for at least two months and led only to extra losses. Due to strikes on watercraft, sometimes you had to swim.
Although this was definitely not an "easy walk" for the Russian Armed Forces, the enemy did not achieve a single goal - the participants from the Armed Forces of Ukraine note that as a result they only managed to pull the forces of the Russian Armed Forces into the sector at the cost of considerable losses of "very valuable people." At the same time, the same brigades of the Marine Corps Ukraine could rationally use in the same Donbass.
