  1. Footage from the operation in the Kinburn Spit The GUR releases video footage of a recent landing operation on the Kinburn Spit. They report that on August 9, 2024, Ukrainian special forces conducted a successful raid on the Russian-occupied Kinburn Spit, destroying six enemy armored vehicles and eliminating around 30 Russian soldiers. The operation involved multiple special units, supported by the Ukrainian Navy and other security forces. During the mission, Ukrainian forces attacked key Russian positions and raised the Ukrainian Military Intelligence flag near a landmark on the spit.
  2. Awesome. Shows how well-planned this entire operation was
  3. Where ya been??
  4. Ol Gerasimov was told about the Ukrainian troop buildup ahead of the attack but dismissed it. Then told Putin at the security council meeting that the advance had been stopped (that video has been posted). Gerasimov was not part of the most recent security council meeting. Hang in there, Gerry.
  5. Glad to have Machinator back. He said he'll stay until the season opener. Is there a known backstory there I'm unaware of?
  6. An interesting issue to keep tracking:
  7. Probably trying to relieve pressure on the fronts where Russia is making consistent advances
  8. Full story in the video "I set fire and left with peace of mind" - sailor "Goga" burned down a Russian ship and joined the side of Ukraine. "Goga" is a former serviceman of the Russian Baltic Fleet. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, he opposed the war, for which he was deprived of access to weapons, rearranged to put on watch and prepared to be sent to the "special military operation". The sailor managed to escape from the Russian Federation with the help of the GUR and the Freedom of Russia Legion, but before that, he burned down the ship he was serving on. "I called the commander of the combat unit, and they were at sea right then. I said, "You came from the sea, you are tired. Have a rest, and I'll be on duty." And I stayed alone on the ship for 24 hours. That's it. I set fire and left the ship," "Goga" said.
  9. More purges of people close to Shoigu: The head of Russia's military park and a top Defense Ministry official are arrested for fraud https://apnews.com/article/russia-military-arrests-putin-patriot-park-defense-04da2edce59bdb65f2029b6456385f54
  10. I'd say that was effective
  11. And to bring these 2 posts together: Pretty sure it's a Boston a Dynamics robot I saw on 60 minutes.
  12. I'll admit I teared up watching them sing their anthem on tv last night
  13. Nothing from the more reliable accounts yet
  14. The Ukrainian General Staff issued the statement that - aside from a S-400 air defense battery - the Russian Improved-Kilo-Class submarine "Rostov-na-Donu" (B-237) has been destroyed in the port of Russian-occupied Sevastopol. Satellite pictures released by the TG channel "DniproOfficial" show that the cover of docking area, where the Rostov was recently docked, is littered with burn marks. This submarine was struck last year in September by Ukrainian missiles and was heavily damaged. Russians have been trying to repair that submarine since then.
