The battlefield, from left (West) to right (East) |
El tercio central de la mesa está dominado por una gran colina norte/sur (Colina 239). Las casas de la pequeña villa de Pochapyntsi puede verse cerca del borde sur de la mesa, en el centro. Dos caminos de tierra salen del pueblo: la carretera norte/sur, que se dirige a Zhurzhynsti, y el camino del oeste, hacia Oktyabr (que aparece en el borde occidental de la mesa) y Lysyanka. El resto del terreno se compone de campos, bosques y balkas. Una compañía paracaidista británica de la 2nd Parachute Brigade ha sido desplegada urgentemente para reforzar el sector de Zhurzhyntsi y evitar que los alemanes logren romper el cerco.
The central third of the table is dominated by a large north/south hill (Hill 239). The outskirts of the small village of Pochapyntsi can be seen near the south table edge. Two dirt roads run from the village: the north/south road, that heads to Zhurzhynsti and the west road, towards Oktyabr (on the western edge) and Lysyanka. The rest of the table is covered with fields, forests and balkas. A British Para company from 2nd Parachute Brigade has been hastily deployed to strengthen the Zhurzhyntsi sector and prevent the Germans from breaking out.
