	Kiev Offensive (1920) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Kiev Offensive (or Kiev Operation) was an important military operation, carried out by Polish Army and allied Ukrainian forces during the Polish-Bolshevik War, from April 1920 to June of the same year.
		From the perspective of staff maps in Warsaw it was clear that the renascent Polish Army was too weak to withstand both the offensive in the southern sector of the front in Ukraine and the spring offensive prepared by the Bolsheviks in Belarus and to the north of the PrypeÄ Marshes.
		However, the commander of the Polish 3rd Army located around Kiev, General Edward Rydz, was seeking a way to repel the upcomming Russian assault rather than withdraw and even proposed the General Staff to regroup all of his forces to the city of Kiev and defend there until relieved.

	Kiev 4 35mm camera
		The design of the Kiev 4 is firmly based on that of a classic pre-war German camera that once cost as much as a small new car to buy, and its use with modern film emulsions means that it is effectively better now than it was in its heyday.
		With the widest of rangefinder bases and clearly engraved depth-of-field scales, the Kiev offers pin-point focus of a single object or the accurate spread of sharpness between two objects at differing distances in a way that is unrivalled by the generalised, imprecise near-accuracy of a modern autofocus camera.
		The Kiev 5 has a rewind knob with a fold out crank at the end of the camera, next to the viewfinder, but the rewind release button and film loading is exactly like the Kiev 4.

		Soviet losses in the Kiev operation was 700,544, of whom 616,000 were dead and missing.
		Operation Taifun was launched by 3 Panzer Groups instead of 2 and from an axis other than the Smolensk-Moscow line where Soviet defenses were most concentrated and best prepared.
		The reason Taifun started so effectively was because of the Kiev operation, it would not have been nearly as successful had it been launched 3 1/2 weeks earlier against the fortified Smolensk-Moscow axis using only two Panzer Groups and holding an ever elongating flank (with 6-700,000 Red Army troops holding an extended line from Kiev).

	Âîåííàÿ ëèòåðàòóðà : Èñòîðèÿ âîéí : Fugate B., Operation Barbarossa
		The Viazma operation was a particular success because there the encirclement took place only 100 kilometers east of Yartsevo and 170 kilometers from Roslavl—in other words, close enough to the starting point of the offensive for the infantry to move in rapidly and help the armored units seal off the pocket (see Figure 43) {3}.
		If the operations of parts of the Nineteenth, Sixteenth, Twentieth, and Thirty-second armies and the Boldin Group [a force made up of three tank brigades and [291] one tank division] encircled west of Viazma are assessed from that point of view, these units must be given credit for their heroic struggle.
		The failure of this plan was predetermined because the operation had to be carried out too late in the year—during bad weather—and also because the delay had allowed the enemy to mobilize fully and deploy its strategic reserve.
