Recap of this morning's Black Sea attacks
❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Combined attack by the Ukrainian armed forces in the Black Sea
On the morning of September 14, Ukrainian formations carried out another attack on the Crimean peninsula.
First, 11 UAV were launched from the vicinity of Odessa (for the first time in a long time not "Mugins" were used for this purpose).
The drones were shot down by the 31st Air Force and Air Defense Division around 5.30 a.m. over Yevpatoria.
Around 5.50 a.m the AFU hit the vicinity of Uyutnoye with an "Neptun" anti-ship missile R-360, as a result a S-300 SAM launcher was hit (relevant footage already appeared on the Net)
❗Once again the AFU uses the same tactics as a few weeks ago. After the UAV raid, the positions of the S-300 air defense system were determined, and the Neptun was used almost immediately. First, the AFU waited until the ammunition was exhausted, and then hit the SAMs.
🔻 Over the past two days, the Ukrainian armed forces also attacked several times a detachment of warships of the Black Sea Fleet consisting of the Vasily Bykov and Sergey Kotov.
-
In total, 12 uncrewed boats were observed, six yesterday and six more today.
-
On 13 September three drones were hit by small arms from ships.
-
Three more were hit by naval aviation helicopters from the Kacha airfield and the patrol ship Vasily Bykov.
-
This morning, five were destroyed on the approach to the OPK, and one managed to get close to the "Bykov" and hook the board (the degree of damage is not critical).
🔻 As we said yesterday, the lack of response to the increasingly aggressive actions of the collective West by the hands of Ukraine is fraught with great consequences.
The strikes will be repeated in the coming days, and herbivorous responses are not the solution.
Andriivka is believed to be under AFU control
🇷🇺🇺🇦 Soledar direction: the AFU advances near Andriivka, situation as of 14.00 on September 9, 2023
🔻Southwest of Bakhmut, Ukrainian formations continue to make their way to the railroad track: after passing to the northeastern outskirts of Kleshcheyevka, the AFU struck near Andriivka.
As a result of fierce fighting, enemy units were able to drive the Russian army fighters out of the village. According to some reports, the RF Armed Forces' line of control runs along the railway line.
This is indirectly confirmed by the activity of Ukrainian reconnaissance groups north of Kurdyumovka. Units on armored vehicles are moving north of the Russian fortification, which could not be the case in case of the presence of the RF Armed Forces in Andriivka.
🔻 There are also clashes in Kleshcheyevka. Russian Armed Forces units hold the northeastern outskirts and are trying to counterattack. The distance to the railway track is about 400 meters.
Satellite images of Crimea by the US have increased significantly
It is no secret that Western satellites monitor the situation on the surface of the Earth, essentially acting as the final authority in selecting a target for a strike by long-range missiles.
During this week the activity of the satellite constellation has increased - on average, the American "Topaz" make 14-15 images of various objects in Crimea with 7-10 at the beginning of the month.
And in recent days, special attention has been paid to three objects: the bridge over the North Crimean Canal, the airfield near Kacha and the Voinka railroad station on the way to Krasnoperekopsk.
This is without taking into account other objects, such as Gvardeyskoye, which was photographed 29 times during the month. And if we take into account the number of attempted strikes on this base, it becomes obvious why they are doing this.
The threat posed by space reconnaissance cannot be taken lightly. At the very least, it is necessary to take into account the areas over which satellites are surveying and to take countermeasures in advance.
