Day 541: 18 Aug
Footage. Ukrainians FOUND AND DESTROY Secret Russian COMMAND BASE by USING smart JDAM

Russia has been going through a difficult period on the territory of Ukraine for a long time.

Kiev’s successful plans of action have trapped the Russians in a vast expanse from Kherson to Luhansk.

In the last two weeks we have witnessed thousands of clashes in Zaporizhia.

Between Kherson and Dnipro, it was the scene of exciting boat landing operations, sudden raids and fierce clashes.

Now a surprise Ukrainian city, which has been silent for a long time, is starting to move again.

In this newsletter, we will go with you to the city of Soledar in the Donetsk region.

Of course, there were occasional offensive operations and military activity in this city.

But not as much as the Zaporizhia, Kherson, Dnipro, Crimean and other southern Ukrainian fronts.

After a long break, with the start of activity in Soledar, all the attention focused on this city.

Here the last Wagner mercenaries clashed with Ukrainian troops for Moscow.

But now there are Russians in the city and they are trying to resist in order not to lose this land to the Ukrainians.

The Ukrainian side, on the other hand, started to carry out a determined offensive plan in Soledar, as it did in Zaporizhia.

We’ve seen the first signs of this in the past few days.

The Command Vyaly air unit of the 30th Separate Motor Rifle Brigade of the Ukrainian army discovered the Russian military training camp in Soledar.

This discovery is thought to have been made by unmanned aerial vehicles.

The Ukrainian brigade gave the coordinates of the Russian military camp in the city to the Ukrainian artillery.

From this moment on, Soledar began to flare up again with artillery attacks.

All preparations were completed and the Ukrainian artillery units were locked on their targets.

Later, the huge military camp headquarters of the Russians in the Donetsk region of Soledar was destroyed by a high-precision JDAM aerial bomb.

The video of the critical attack was watched many times on social media.

It was clearly evident in the images that the JDAM bomb had hit the Russian military camp violently, and then huge smokes emerged in the base area.

Serious military losses were mentioned after the destruction of this Russian base by a pinpoint JDAM attack.

Because it was known that there were many Russian soldiers in this training facility in Soledar.

Ukrainian sources mention that over 100 Russian soldiers were destroyed.

This striking attack seems to be one of the most resounding examples of recent Ukrainian attacks in Donetsk.

At present, the offensive operations of the Ukrainians continue in the city of Bakhmut.

Ukrainian forces carried out an incredible attack here, resulting in the destruction of a $10 million combat vehicle belonging to the Russian army.

The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported that a Ka-52 was shot down by the Ukrainian Air Force in the direction of Bakhmut in the eastern Donetsk region.

Ukraine’s 47th Separate Mechanized Brigade announced that it shot down another Ka-52 helicopter with an anti-aircraft missile near Robotyne, a village in the Zaporizhzhia region, approximately two hours after this critical attack.

Soldiers from the 47th Separate Mechanized Brigade of the Ukrainian army claimed responsibility for this critical attack.

It was reported that the Russian Ka-52 helicopter was shot down with MANPADS portable air defense systems.

This is actually an incredible attack.

This critical success of the 47th Separate Mechanized Brigade, hitting a moving target, was a heavy blow to the Russian contingent in Zaporizhia, which they intended to revive.

It is claimed that a Russian soldier who jumped from the crashed helicopter barely saved his life and that this person was the pilot of the helicopter.

In other words, Russia lost two Ka-52 helicopters in total on the front lines of Donetsk and Zaporizhia on the same day.

The ability of the Ukrainians to hit Russian air targets with such success in just a 24-hour period is undoubtedly admirable.

In fact, since the beginning of the war, Ukrainians have improved a lot in this regard.

Counting only casualties confirmed through open sources, the independent monitoring group Oryx has released a critical statement regarding the helicopters the Russians lost in the war.

According to Oryx, in its latest update released last month, the Russian military has lost 101 helicopters since February 2022, of which 87 were destroyed, 12 damaged and one captured by Ukrainian forces.

The United States supports the decision to provide F-16s to Ukraine after the pilots have completed their training.

This was stated by US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, Censor.NET reports citing the EP.

He confirmed the existence of a letter from Secretary of State Anthony Blinken to his counterparts in Denmark and the Netherlands, which “formalized” the readiness “to approve the provision of F-16s to Ukraine in consultation with Congress upon completion of the exercise”.

“It’s a natural extension of what President Biden announced in Hiroshima,” Sullivan said, recalling that the American leader had announced training for Ukrainians on F-16s at the Group of Seven summit in Japan.

He also noted that Washington had not previously abandoned its intention to provide Kyiv with fighter jets.

“This week, we’ve highlighted that and put an exclamation point on it,” Sullivan added.

Earlier, the media reported that the United States would allow F-16s to be sent to Ukraine from Denmark and the Netherlands after pilots have been trained.

Later, Denmark and the Netherlands confirmed the information.
