Ukraine War Update
The Ukrainian Armed Forces are conducting an ingenious war tactic between the critical frontlines of Zaporizhia, Donbass. While the Ukrainians’ tank offensive continues in the Orikhiv and Velyka Novosilka regions of Zaporizhia, trench clashes in the Donbass come to the fore. But Ukraine’s coastlines are much more active today. In particular, the strategic areas off the Black Sea, the Crimean peninsula, the Kherson coast and the Azov Sea have become important frontlines where the course of the war is changing.
In recent days, Ukrainians have been achieving unforgettable victories in these areas. In this critical period of time, when Russia was operating with sabotage boats in these areas, the Ukrainians carried out a point-blank attack that will go down in history. The striking details of Ukraine’s attacks made this action even more prominent. Yesterday, after a successful reconnaissance operation in the Dnipro River, Ukrainian forces managed to sink seven Russian boats in a single operation. Also today, the Ukrainian Navy’s Free Bird Bayraktar TB2 made its debut in the Black Sea with a legendary return explosion. Bayraktar TB2 managed to destroy the 6th Russian landing / patrol boat in the Black Sea with a single shot after a long break.
Let’s take a look at the incredible images and operational details of these 2 mind-blowing successful operations. The Ukrainian Armed Forces Navy did not specify exactly where the Russian intruders were trying to land their landing craft and boats in Dnipro and the Black Sea. However, it was claimed that the Russians were preparing for a landing operation in the northwest of the Black Sea on the coast of Odessa, Mykolaiv or Kherson. However, Ukrainian forces did not allow the Russians to carry out this planned landing. The loss of boats and ships off the Black Sea in the direction of Dnipro and Kherson became addictive for the Russians. We faced a similar situation the day before the Ukrainian Army’s Bayraktar TB2 armed UAV blew up a Russian boat.
While the Ukrainian armed forces were conducting offensive operations in the southern direction, Russian troops were trying to assess the situation in these areas. But Ukrainian defenders managed to destroy 7 boats of Russian sabotage and reconnaissance groups. Kiev spokesperson Natalya Humenyuk confirmed this striking data. Humenyuk also reported that the Ukrainian Armed Forces continue to advance in the Kherson region, especially on the left bank. The Ukrainian Army’s Bayraktar TB2 armed UAV blew up the Russian Army’s KC-701 patrol boat.
Ukraine’s use of Turkish-made TB2 drones in this attack dropped like a bomb on the agenda. Because these drones had provided Ukraine with unbelievable victories since the beginning of the war. The Russians had failed to take measures against these drones provided by Turkey to Ukraine. In this act of attack, the vulnerability of Russian troops against TB2 drones was proved again. The images shared about the attack explained this situation much better. In the footage released by the Ukrainian Naval Forces Command, it was clearly visible that the Russians docked on the shore were trying to get out of the boat and a Russian soldier entered the cabin inside the boat. At that moment, a mesmerizing drone strike was fired at the Russian troops on, in and around the boat, tearing the Russian vessel to pieces.
There was complete chaos on the waterfront and the Russian troops waiting on the shore could not recover from the shock of the attack. Wounded Russian soldiers were also lying helplessly on the shore. The Russians lost six soldiers and two Russian soldiers were seriously wounded during the TB2 drone attack by Ukrainian forces. With the sinking of 7 Russian boats by the Ukrainians, the attempts of the Russian troops to go deeper into the right bank of Dnipro have also stopped. Because when they try to go there, the Russians put themselves in danger.
Russian forces are destroyed by detonating mines they have laid themselves or by Ukrainian counter-battery attacks.
Kiev, on the other hand, continues to take advantage of the Russian situation. To this end, Ukrainian forces have recently established a foothold at Kinburn Spit in the direction of Kherson.
In other words, Ukrainian troops achieved a new success at Kinburn Spit, south of the Mykolaiv region, where they were able to gain a foothold and advance the day before. The Russians confirmed the landing of Ukrainian troops and the subsequent development of the offensive. The geolocation of the images was identified by the OSINT military analyst on the Kravchuk Telegram channel. According to the analyst, the Ukrainian side has not yet commented on the operation.

Foreign Minister explains why Ukraine cannot conduct peace talks with Putin
European Pravda, Ukrainska Pravda
Tuesday, 5 September 2023, 21:13
https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/09/5/7418589/
Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba has said that Kyiv cannot conduct peace talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin because he cannot be trusted.
SOURCE: European Pravda, citing Kuleba‘s interview with NHK
DETAILS:
He said that Putin cannot be trusted, because even if he gives you his word, there is no guarantee that he keeps it.
“He is not a person with whom you can seriously negotiate something. If you think that you have successfully agreed with him, then you are putting yourself in danger of being attacked by him,” Kuleba said.
The Ukrainian Foreign Minister believes that the more successful Ukraine is on the battlefield, the more Russia will be ready for negotiations, but he does not see a possibility for negotiations with the Russian Federation in the near future.
“If we want to exist as a nation, if we want to survive, we must win, no matter the cost,” Kuleba is convinced.
The Ukrainian Foreign Minister also expressed disappointment with recent criticism from Western countries that Ukraine’s offensive does not meet some people’s expectations.
He added that anyone who sits in a chair and comments on the pace of the offensive should not tell the Ukrainian soldiers that they are too slow, because they are dying in this struggle and deserve full respect.
BACKGROUND:
- Earlier, Kuleba said that the war started by Russia cannot be stopped by sitting down at the negotiating table.
- Before that, the Foreign Minister said that Ukraine’s partners know the real situation with counteroffensive actions and claims about their allegedly slow pace of discouraging Ukrainian servicemen.
- In addition, the Foreign Minister advised critics of the “slow” counteroffensive to “shut up” and go to the front in Ukraine themselves.
Pretty much not our forum either. It's been overrun in recent years with the hardcore pro-Vaxx, pro-Ukraine and anti-Trump crowd.
