“The Saudis will return to Ukraine the Grim-2 missile system bought from it, which is more reliable than Iskander and fires missiles further, 700 km. That is, the missiles of the Armed Forces of Ukraine will reach moscow.”

Ukraine: military situation update with maps, August 22, 2022

Extra:
Ukraine Situation Report: Russia Building Pontoon Bridge Into Kherson
With the Antonovsky Bridge still out of action due to HIMARS strikes, Russia appears to be creating a pontoon bridge across the Dnipro River (alongside the Antonovsky Bridge).
https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/ukraine-situation-report-russia-building-pontoon-bridge-into-kherson

———————————————————————————————————————
••Military situation:
The only thing that really happened is that Russian troops captured a village on Kherson bridgehead, but beyond that there is not much progress.

••Crimea Attacks:
Antonivsky bridge damaged and cannot be used by RGF. (Edit: they are building a pontoon bridge along side of it - see story above.) Nova Kahovka dam road still functioning. Railroad bridge situation unclear.

US attacking depots in the Luhansk’ region & Rostov-on-Don. These attacks do no good - do not change the overall situation - and are contributing to UA slowly losing the war.

Chief Commander of the UA mentioned the UA lost about 9,000 dead to date. WiU thinks that number is definitely 20,000-25,000. This is the first official admission of heavy losses; before it was secret and not discussed. Russia number are similar and some would say less, 3,000-4,000. But, if you count the number of dead of the forced conscripts from the temporarily occupied regions, the numbers are probably equal. Ukraine cannot sustain 1:1 losses. They have to be 1:3.5 to have any chance of winning because that is the size of Russia: 3.5 X Ukraine.

••Discussion on Energy and Food:
(NG and electric prices rise) industries cannot survive ... German fertilizer company shut, Dutch zinc company shut, Slovakian aluminum company shut ... things are really getting out of control. That’s all the result of this misguided energy policy, and what we specifically mean is the sole focus on alternative energy. The forced transition to alternative energy simply does not work; it backfires.

Even more problematic, the Russian leadership realizes that this cannot happen simply due to the principles of physics or what it really means is that cost of energy gonna skyrocket for everyone.

We’re really gonna return to some kind of form of feudalism or in some parts of the world to slavery because, if you think that those things of the past, they were things of the past only because of their economic advancement and energy availability advancement that mankind had in those times. If we go back in terms of energy availability, we’re going to go back to those systems that existed before the current system.

This is the situation that is happening and as this starts to take affect, not only in Europe - as we you know mentioned before a couple videos before, it starts to effect the US.

(Discussion of US prices) ... its the artificially constrained supply of energy, to be specific, that’s effecting everything else, including the supply chains.

As the price of energy rises, the price of food follows. Until the point that both are unaffordable. And that means unrest, as hungry people demand food.

(Edit: your garden may feed you, but what is to stop the mob of hungry people from stripping it? Remember you demanded that the police be defunded ... You may drive off the first mob with your guns, but what about the second? What about the sniper on the hill, forest, knoll that shoots you as you garden? What about the poor little hungry waif that walks up to you just close enough to pull a gun and shoot you?)

I still haven’t seen any “after” pictures from the recent Antonivsky Bridge strike. This seems longer than usual, to get some OSINT BDA.

Apparently, the picture I posted the other day from Freeper BBQToadRibs2 (with the black and yellow lettering) was not of that strike, but rather a general meme about blowing up bridges.
