Crimea could be covered by a “random salvo” of Ukrainian missiles
By whipping up military hysteria and demonstratively transferring tanks to the Donbass, the Kiev command may be preparing a strike on Crimea.
An employee of the central apparatus of the SBU, Lieutenant Colonel Vasily Prozorov, who went over to the side of Russia, stated this on the YouTube channel “PolitWera”, the correspondent of “PolitNavigator” reports.
“Perhaps this is so special and thoughtful - we will now send equipment, raise the degree of hysteria in Donbass higher, a couple of degrees higher. Raising the bets. But in reality, the provocation will be in another place, for example in Crimea or Transnistria,” Prozorov suggested.
“All attention will be focused on Gorlovka or Novoazovsk, and a random salvo of missiles will fly towards Dzhankoy in Crimea. Here's a simple example. I sat and thought, well, what could be. Ukraine conducts training exercises in the Kherson region, and missiles accidentally fly into the territory of Crimea and hit some infrastructure facilities.
Whatever the Russian Federation does in response, everything will be bad. Good for Ukraine, bad for Russia. There’s nothing you can do, it’s a perfect excuse to blame everyone once again, Russia has washed itself and dried itself. If Russia strikes back, Ukraine will present itself as an innocent victim. But the reason for a global invasion is rather weak,” the ex-SBU officer added.
In addition, he noted that the Belarusian direction cannot be discounted.
“If I were in the General Staff or the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, then with the aggravation in Donbass or Crimea, I would definitely connect the activation of the Belarusian opposition community with the real intensification of confrontations there, up to direct clashes, as on the Maidan in January 2014. Whatever one may say, Russia will still support Belarus, that is, this is a dividing of forces and resources into different operational strategic directions. But – again – a media picture for the whole world,” Prozorov concluded.
Crimea could be hit by an "accidental salvo" of Ukrainian missiles.
