VIDEO: WAR COMMENTARY SUMMATION 02 Feb: Ukrainians CONDUCT A SUCCESSFUL COUNTER ATTACK. Russian Gains REDUCED TO ZERO. War in Ukraine Explained Reporting from Ukraine 463K subscribers 2-2-2024 5:00 Minutes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kh5ecYbONTs
I am Ukrainian. My country has been invaded by Russia. In this video I will tell you what happened on the seven-hundred-ninth day of the war.
Day 709: Feb 02
Today, there are a lot of updates about the battle near Vuhledar.
But first of all, more information became available about the combined strike on Crimea. Russian sources reported that Ukrainians tricked the Russian air defense system by first launching decoy rockets. Once the Russian air defense started shooting them down and revealed their positions, Ukrainians launched anti-radar HARM rockets. These rockets are designed to pick up signals from working radars and destroy them, so Russians basically had to either switch the radars off or take a risk and try to intercept these rockets before they destroy the radars. For Ukrainians, it did not matter what Russians decided to do – the air defense was busy, creating a perfect opportunity to launch Storm Shadow missiles. Ukrainian Air Force Spokesman stated that based on the eulogies of Russian soldiers and other reports, at least 3 aircraft and 2 facilities with personnel were destroyed, including Russian general Oleksandr Tatarenko. Moreover, Ukrainians conducted a simultaneous marine drone strike on the Russian Fleet. As a result, 3 drones successfully hit a Russian missile carrier, which promptly went to the bottom of the sea. Such a massive and successful combined strike caused huge discontent in the Russian media space. Russian analysts criticized the overpraised S-400 air defense systems that were supposed to create an iron dome above Crimea and the continuous failure to protect the radars as well as military objects.
Another point of concern for the Russian analysts became the disastrous Russian offensive operation near Vuhledar. Vuhledar became notorious a long time ago because multiple Russian brigades were completely annihilated here, achieving zero territorial gains. In the most recent offensive operation, Russian forces tried to implement a new plan and bypass Vuhledar from the north. In order to achieve this goal, the main target became Novomykhailivka.
The operation started from demining the fields and attacking Ukrainian strongpoints around the settlement. At first, Russian forces managed to achieve some success on the southern flank, and the main reason for such a big jump was the lack of strongpoints. As you can see, there is a small river going through the settlements, creating several lines of swamps between the fields. Ukrainians had a series of small unit-size defenses in the tree lines, however, the main defense belt was located right in front of the village – more precisely, 2 farms, a cemetery, and main road intersections.
By leveraging 3 settlements under their control, Russian forces were launching one mechanized attack after another from all sides, forcing Ukrainians to withdraw to the main defense belt. Russian sources reported that the battle for Novomykhailivka had started as Russians reached the outskirts. Since Russian forces on the northern flank were substantially lagging behind, the only way to collapse Ukrainian defense was by penetrating the settlement from the south and cutting off supplies. Geolocated footage showed that Russians managed to take control of several strongpoints and get a foothold, and started preparing to storm the settlement.
Despite devastating shelling and the use of heavy thermobaric systems, Russians failed to undermine the Ukrainian defense, and Russian forces on the outskirts were slowly killed. Once the garrison was liquidated, Ukrainian fighters from the 79th Airmobile Brigade conducted a powerful second wave of counterattacks and pushed the front line back by more than 2 kilometers, forcing Russians to start the whole operation from scratch.
The only positions that Russians managed to maintain were south of the swamp. Russian forces decided to leverage the natural obstacle in the form of the swamp as a shield against possible Ukrainian flank attacks and expand westward. Russians created a powerful assault unit consisting of 4 tanks, 10 armored fighting vehicles, and around 150 soldiers and launched an attack. Unfortunately for Russians, Ukrainians ambushed the column with drones.
Geolocated footage shows that Russian forces sustained about a company’s worth of heavy armored vehicle losses during assaults in the area. The Ukrainian General Staff reported that only in this attack Russian forces lost 2 tanks and 7 armored fighting vehicles.

Ha ha ha!! Thanks for the belly laugh.
It probably offers more payout for link cites hawked.
“The cash she’s making must be good enough”
This is a total lie. Usually, I post a daily article but I have busy with my family responsibilities.
Some Freepers post deception. Do not believe.
When you read that I am making money, note that Freepers should not be trusted.
Does that mean England does not need to lie under their beds in fear from a Russian ground attack?
Lol.
It used to be entertaining watching the craziness playing out on these threads. Now, for me at least, it's become pathetic, gross and horribly boring, especially after the BabaOreally debacle in which she "ooohed and ahhhed" over and gave a gushing "couples" blessing to a Zeeper she adored who in reality is a ~70 year old American, living in Youcrayne, who had hooked up with a 14 year old girl there.
In all fairness, I don't think she knew he was a pedo when she gave him and that child, described by him on FR as his "trophy gal" (ugh), a blessing but she didn't retract that "blessing" after Baba's predation(s?) came to light.
LOL!! Me thinks the Rev doth protest too much. Most Freepers have families and other responsibilities too, and they don’t have the time it takes to search the internet every day for specific article titles, and multiple YouTube videos to put together the type of lengthy Ukraine threads that you do, then continually post more links to themselves on each article post.
“I used to enjoy checking out, commenting on and poking fun”
I appreciate that you now will stop. Thank you
Hopefully, others can learn from your example & reflection upon Mr. Robinson’s Rules for post/commenting.
Again, thank you so much :D
Obviously she doesn't actually research the crap she posts, the sources it comes from, or the validity of it. That apparently isn't important to her. Just posting stuff willy-nilly, and offering it as fact tells me she really isn't concerned about the stuff she throws out there for consumption. She's as bad as the main stream media.
>Moreover, I have provided this information several times on earlier threads, and the poster has to be aware of the facts regarding this YouTube channel.<
As long as they’re paying her, she types and posts. Never mind the rules. She’ll keep going until she’s thrown off the site.
She’d post propaganda for Putin if he paid her.
Yup. Thanks for the posting. I’m aware of those rules. Jim made a personal appeal to you. That’s a difference.
Ugh. There you go again misrepresenting someone's comment. As you well realize, I wasn't reflecting on Jim's posting rules, I was commenting on what a bore you are and how you'd blessed a "relationship" between BaboOreally, a ~70 year old American pervert and pedophile living in Youcrayne, and his 14 year old "trophy gal."
When will you retract that "blessing?" Thank you very much, in advance, for your coming retraction!
Just tired of two years of seeing this all the time. Why doesn't this supposed ‘’mom’’ or an alleged Ukrainian draft dodger get their own blog? And nice way of avoiding the question I asked.
I respect his guidelines. Check out the comments by others on this post to see the true irony in comparison:<
Thank you for your service as FR Hall Monitor.
Seeing the notice of UMC's beliefs posted on this thread bothered you so much, you had it yanked. (Post 34)
In every one of your posts, you make it crystal clear to FReepers that you're a REVEREND. Are you ashamed of your denomination's doctrine?
Well done, Hall Monitor!

“Me thinks the Rev doth protest too much. Most Freepers have families and other responsibilities too”
True, it takes time and effort. I had immediate family obligation that had caused me to post irregularly. Which I heard, totally upset the anti-freedom for Ukraine crowd to concoct some amusing tales.
Like others, I post or send PM’s with information others may not have seen.
BTW, if you want to check the length of this thread... the comments are not FROM me but ABOUT me! LOL
Rocco, there’s something seriously wrong with her. She does more for the anti-perpetual war side than four or five of us put together. Point at her and laugh and say a prayer you aren’t part of whatever church she clangs the beggars cup for.
“Yup. Thanks for the posting.”
You are welcome.
“Jim made a personal appeal to you.”
Yes. I had referenced a historic Ukrainian phrase used since 1917. He asked that it not be used. I totally understand his POV.
I haven’t used the phrase.
BTW, I totally respect mr. Robinson and deeply appreciate Free Republic. As I have stated many times, I value the Freedom of thought and Freedom of expression for every Freeper. Respectfully, I request
I have Freepers from both sides PM me to compliment me for not reacting to the negative comments. Which sincerely, I do appreciate.
Both sides, of the Russian invasion issue have become cautious for fear comments they share may cause a hostile actions by some. I do suggest. Re-read this thread and note Freeper comments: articles & memes.
>“Yup. Thanks for the posting.”
You are welcome.
“Jim made a personal appeal to you.”
Yes. I had referenced a historic Ukrainian phrase used since 1917. He asked that it not be used. I totally understand his POV.

There ya go again, mommy, leaving out important facts so you won’t look so bad.
Jim also told you more than once that “Less propaganda would be appreciated.”
Here we go again:
Respectfully, this is America. Christian America. Our history does not include ‘GLory’ to anyone other than to God. All Glory to God.
Less propaganda would be appreciated.

As I said, less propaganda would be appreciated.
