Ukrainian intelligence officers covered more than 600km on foot through enemy territory to destroy a Russian Tu-22M3 bomber and damage two more at Soltsy Air Base, the Main Intelligence Directorate reports.

Lt. Col. Oleh Babiy commanded the operation. On August 30, 2023, while covering the retreat of his brothers-in-arms, Oleh was mortally wounded during an ambush.

Oleh and his group have conducted 9 succesful recon operations in the Russian rear, 12 measures for local resistance organization and found up to 70 important strategic objects which were used by the Ukrainian Army to inflict damage upon.

“and Orban, the Putin lover?”

(AP) “Unless an emergency session of Hungary’s parliament is called to debate the matter, its next scheduled assembly is expected on Feb. 26.”

A Lt. Col. on a deep penetration mission like that must be a Ukraine thing.

More details:

Ukrainian intelligence officers walked more than 600 kilometers across russian territory to destroy TU-22 bombers. Having penetrated deep behind enemy lines, the scouts completed their task - they destroyed a russian TU-22M3 bomber and disabled two more.

The Main Intelligence Directorate opened the curtain on the operation to destroy the Tu-22M3 at the Seltsy airfield in the Novgorod region.

Returning to the territory of Ukraine, the reconnaissance group under the command of Colonel Oleh Babii was ambushed and entered into an unequal battle with the invaders. On August 30, 2023, while covering the departure of his fellow soldiers, Oleh Babii was mortally wounded.

For his heroic feat, Oleh Babii was awarded the title of Hero of Ukraine with the Order of the Golden Star. Posthumously.

Did that mean you thought there was something negative in post 64?

It’s a mystery why they would have a Lt. Colonel on the mission and since he was MI, I wonder about the Bat 21 risk.

Ukraine must be doing something different than we would, for some reason they could probably explain.

I would like to read the Lt. Colonel’s bio. I would bet it is very interesting.

I bet.

I would also like to know more about this operation, how they escaped, and that was after making contact, it used to be the Russian GRU had hunter-killer teams to hunt LRS teams and other deep penetration operators, getting out was always an issue and of course being too deep in enemy territory and too small and poorly armed a unit to do much fighting.

I don't believe that General Gerasimov is dead.

But if he is - if the Russians say that he died from a medical condition, then the Ukrainians killed him.

If the Russians say that the Ukrainians killed him, then the Kremlin killed him themselves.

That is how Russian lies work.

These lies become predictable over time.

He may not be dead, but he is definitely getting smaller.

Trump got 51% in Iowa.

Currently 54% in NH.

Have to say, not impressed. Barely crossed 50% as an ex- president.

Lets see what Nevada and South Carolina have to say in Feb.

“more than 600km on foot through enemy territory”

“conducted 9 successful recon operations in the Russian rear”

“A true hero. May he rest in peace.”

Glory to the heroes of Ukraine.

God Bless Lt. Col. Babiy.
