5 Sep: Russians Test a New Tactic. REGRET IMMEDIATELY (100% Mortality Rate) | War in Ukraine

Reporting from Ukraine

I am Ukrainian. My country has been invaded by Russia. In this video I will tell you what happened on the five hundred fifty ninth day of the war.

Day 559: Sep 05

Today, there are a lot of updates from the Tokmak direction.

First of all, more information became available about the recent Ukrainian penetration of the defense line south of Robotyne. As mentioned previously, Russian forces exploited the local geography by creating a formidable strong point on a hill, which Ukrainians struggled to take for a long time. Recently, the fighters from the 15th Brigade released combat footage showing how they assaulted Russian trenches and fortifications. Russian sources reported that the reason why Ukrainians suddenly managed to take all of the fortifications in one attack lies in the fact that Ukrainians waited until Russians conducted rotation and attacked precisely at that moment.

Nonetheless, even the most prominent Russian analysts continued to assume that Russians are still present on the southern outskirts of Robotyne and do not allow Ukrainians to enter the village. Soon, all doubts about the success of the Ukrainian offensive actions were dispelled because Ukrainian fighters released a video of how they were walking on the streets of the village. The final confirmation of the Ukrainian advancement came from the Russian side when Russian forces released a video showing how they conducted a drone strike on Ukrainians in the trenches south of Robotyne.

Russian sources also started raising the alarm that Ukrainians are preparing to capitalize on these gains by conducting a powerful attack on Novoprokopivka because Ukrainians were seen sending reinforcements toward Robotyne. And this is not surprising because now Ukrainians can exploit precisely the same tactical advantages as Russians had. If we look at the topographic map, we can see that this position is located on a hill, allowing Ukrainians to establish fire control over an entire area. That is why Russians immediately gathered forces and started launching one counterattack after another.

At first, Russians tried to ambush Ukrainians at night. For that, they conducted intense artillery preparation during the day to undermine defense and sent several assault units at night. Unfortunately for Russians, they were in direct view, so Ukrainians noticed them well in advance. Ukrainians decided to let Russians get as close as possible, while Ukrainians quickly prepared an ambush. A few moments later, Ukrainians opened fire simultaneously from all sides and completely eliminated the Russian assault unit.

However, the Russians did not stop. Recently released combat footage shows that Ukrainians suffered several more assaults during the day. It looks like Ukrainians had enough time to clear the area and prepare for defense because all Russian attacks were successfully rebuffed.

Russian commanders understood that attacking this fortification just from one side was not enough and developed a new plan. This time, Russians decided to attack Ukrainians from two sides: first from the west and then once again from the south. The main goal here was to cut off supplies and reinforcements to the fortification and, ideally, split Ukrainian forces into two groups.

At first, Russian forces managed to enter the village and create a threat of encirclement of the Ukrainian forces south of the village. Nonetheless, Russian war correspondents quickly made another update, saying that Ukrainians reinforced Robotyne. As it turned out, Ukrainians crushed the Russian flank attack by conducting a flank attack. After a fierce battle, Russian forces had to retreat.

Overall, Ukrainians repelled a series of comprehensive and powerful counterattacks and managed to retain control over crucial tactical positions, from where Ukrainians planned to develop their offensive operation toward Novoprokopivka. Russian analysts concluded that the attack is inevitable, and Ukrainians will try to leverage the breakthroughs east of the village to clear the second line of defense up until Novoprokopivka and set conditions for an even broader attack on the last Russian defense line on the way to Tokmak.

Ukraine followed a Russian drone back to its operators and then destroyed them with artillery in this video. The fighters from the ADAM group followed the drone in the ruins of Kurdyumivka in the Donetsk region. When they saw it returning to a ruined building, they then called in artillery to kill the operators in the video posted in September.

Maybe the malware/virus is on your NOT on X/twitter?

Anyway, don’t know or care really because I only meant to alert you. I receive many images so apparently not affected.

BTW, despite being slandered by Anti-Ukraine Freepers you are unaware that PRO-Ukraine Freepers are Pro-Trump & also Anti Vaxxers.

Not your fault. You just believed the propaganda hype against Freepers that support Ukraine.

Cubans forced to fight for Russia in Ukraine – Cuban Foreign Ministry
Ukrainska Pravda
Wednesday, 6 September 2023, 01:03
https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/09/6/7418605/

Cuba has uncovered a human trafficking network coercing Cuban citizens into fighting on Russia’s side in the war against Ukraine, and the country is making efforts to “neutralise and dismantle” the network.

SOURCE: Cuban Foreign Ministry; Reuters

DETAILS:
A statement issued by the Cuban Foreign Ministry late on Monday night [4 September] gave few details but noted that the trafficking network operated both on the territory of the Caribbean Island nation, thousands of kilometres from Moscow, and in Russia itself.

QUOTE:
“The Ministry of the Interior... is working on the neutralization and dismantling of a human trafficking network that operates from Russia to incorporate Cuban citizens living there, and even some from Cuba, into the military forces participating in war operations in Ukraine.

Cuba is not part of the war in Ukraine. (Cuba) is acting and will act energetically against anyone... who participates in any form of human trafficking for the purpose of recruitment of Cuban citizens as mercenaries to use arms against any country.

Attempts of this nature have been neutralized and criminal proceedings have been initiated against people involved in these activities.”
