Abstract

In article "The rebel’s river war on the Dnipro in 1919–1921" is aimed at the research of the river war of the Ukrainian rebel formations and their river flotillas in 1919-1921, as a part of the Ukrainian military history and the history of Ukraine during the first liberation struggle of 1917–1921. River communications were a significant factor in the tactics and sometimes in the strategies of the opposing sides, including various rebel groups during the 1919–1921. River flotillas became one of the means of control over water utilities. The largest rebel detachments had their own flotillas at their disposal, which became one of the factors that allowed them to conduct more maneuverable military actions and to be less vulnerable under adverse conditions. In fact, even a complete or partial loss of the rebels’ flotillas did not lead to the termination of the river war – the hostilities on the Dnipro.
