Ukraine destroys Russian train with 40 fuel tanks in Zaporizhzhia Oblast

The aim of the operation was to disrupt a supply line used to transport #fuel from #Crimea to #Zaporizhzhia Oblast.

The operation was carried out jointly by the the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), the Ukrainian army's #Tavria Group, the Military Intelligence Agency (HUR), and the Special Operations Forces (SSO).

The operation began with the #SBU organizing a sabotage mission to destroy railroad tracks near the village of #Oleksiivka in the #Bilmak district, the source said.

As the train carrying 40 fuel tanks was moving along the tracks, an explosion derailed the train, and some of the tanks ignited, according to the source.

Using #HIMARS rockets, the Ukrainian forces targeted the locomotive and the outermost cars, preventing #Russian forces from ripping apart the tanks and saving some of the fuel.

The operation resulted in the complete destruction of the locomotive and 40 fuel tanks, effectively crippling key #SupplyLine to Russian forces in the region and rendering the targeted rail line inoperable, the source said.

The #British masterminded the Krynky / Kherson Operation

Already in #Britain, the marines who completed the training told UP, they realized that they were being prepared for something big and different from their previous tasks. ...

“We realized that after the training we would sail to the Kinburn Spit (its liberation would allow us to unblock Mykolaiv ports - UP) or we would force the Dnipro River or #Crimea - there were different guesses. And when we were told about the operation three weeks before it was to take place, we were aware of what we had to do. An operation to overcome water obstacles always involves losses of 70-80%. No one refused,” says Marine Monakh. ...

“We should have left at least in the spring, when there were still fogs. Then it was still possible to bring everyone out a little bit. It would have saved people's lives. And so we got to the point where nothing could be done. Until the last, last moment,” the marine officer says these words with difficulty in a conversation with UP. ...

“If I were him (Sodol - UP), I would not have conducted this operation. Even if we had succeeded in our plans, nothing would have happened in the end. Because then we would have to saturate (the footholds - UP). And how can they be replenished - with bloodless brigades that stand without rotations? Where are the reserves? But it was not Sodol's idea, it was the political leadership's idea,” the brigadier says. ...

Leaks expose secret British military cell plotting to ‘keep Ukraine fighting’

Leaked files show top UK military figures conspired to carry out the Kerch bridge bombing, covertly train “Gladio”-style stay-behind forces in Ukraine, and groom the British public for a drop in living standards caused by the proxy war against Russia.

Emails and internal documents reviewed by The Grayzone reveal details of a cabal of British military and intelligence veterans which plotted to escalate and prolong the Ukraine proxy war “at all costs.” Convened under the direction of the British Ministry of Defense in the immediate aftermath of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the cell referred to itself as Project Alchemy. As British leadership sabotaged peace talks between Kiev and Moscow, the cell put forward an array of plans “to keep Ukraine fighting” by imposing “strategic dilemmas, costs and frictions upon Russia.”

...

Some of Project Alchemy’s most extreme recommendations have already been implemented, often with calamitous results. These include the cell’s proposal to strike Crimea’s Kerch Bridge, which prompted a Russian escalation that saw punishing attacks on Ukraine’s electricity infrastructure. Alchemy also envisioned the construction of a secret, Gladio-style army of Ukrainian partisan fighters to carry out assassination, sabotage, and terror missions behind enemy lines.

Since government coup #Maidan 2014, the ukrainian national currency has lost its purchasing power by more than 500%, for this ukrainians with pots on their heads jumped on the Maidan, shot up to a hundred people in the center of #Kiev, burned people in #Odessa, lost #Crimea and started a war in #Donbass.

It was such a waste of their country, built by the sweat and blood of generations of Soviet people.

Ukrainian Navy confirms Russia downed its own Su-27 aircraft over Crimea

"We can confirm that the aircraft belonged to Russia and that it was destroyed by their own forces," Pletenchuk said on television.

"They (Russian forces) were on alert and in heightened combat readiness. Then the human factor came into play," the spokesperson said.

Pletenchuk commented that "somebody really wanted to get a medal for shooting down a plane" and "didn't bother to figure out" whose aircraft it was. The spokesperson said that the pilot survived, confirming the claims of Russian authorities.

Russia continues to redeploy Black Sea Fleet from Crimea, Ukraine promises ‘new steps’ to target it

Russia is continuing the redeployment of its Black Sea Fleet from occupied #Crimea to the relative safety of #Novorossiysk after yet more successful strikes on its ships, Ukraine’s military intelligence (HUR) reported on March 21.

Speaking on national television, HUR spokesperson Andrii Yusov said Black Sea Fleet headquarters infrastructure and warships “are being actively relocated.”

“The redeployment to Novorossiysk continues, although they cannot completely leave temporarily occupied Crimea without naval forces as such,” he said, adding: “Otherwise, that would mean fleeing.”

Russian missile ship sunk off occupied Crimea

Ukraine's military intelligence (HUR) said on Feb. 1 that its operatives sunk a Russian #Tarantul-class Ivanovets missile corvette from the Black Sea Fleet overnight off of occupied #Crimea.

Ukraine's military intelligence released a video of a naval drone approaching a ship and an ensuing explosion.

The accompanying message said that the #Ivanovets received "direct hits to its hull" and was irreparably damaged. The Ivanovets #sunk afterward, the military intelligence said.

A Russian A-50 AWACS aircraft crashed between the Sea of Azov and Berdyansk (Zaporizhzhia region). Russia claims it was shot by Russian air defense by mistake but Ukraine claims responsibility for it.

If it was a case of Ukrainian fire, then at a distance of around 180 km S-200, S-300 (with Russian missiles) or MIM-104 Patriot with PAC-2 would be possible. However, all of these systems would then have to be located very close to the front - which would be risky.

Russia only has up to 8 of these €300 million aircraft, which are used to coordinate air combat, missile attacks and the suppression of Ukrainian air defenses. A video is supposed to show the last flight of this machine.
