Ukraine Ping!
Broke through the FIRST line. Russkies have defenses in depth.
This is great news bound to po Putin’s Freeper puppets.
Space Base surveillance reveals the battlefields are littered with dead Ukrainians.
This is a catastrophe, this must end.
Make Peace You Fools!
Ohs noes, not Kozachi Laheri!
Hey Uke-philes, trumpeting temporary capture of a farm or dairy settlement and ignoring the massive losses doesn’t give a good look. Sounds more like desperation. Kinda like the fat chick going on and on about how ‘sexy’ she is with her new hairdo.
“ Kherson direction,
situation as of 13.00 August 8, 2023 from X-bar
Because of the distraction to other directions, the situation along the Dnieper has fallen out of public view. For several months, the Armed Forces of Ukraine continued to fire on the left bank, covering the actions of reconnaissance groups on boats.
However, after the replacement of the Airborne Forces units, which had been operating there for a long time, attacks on Russian positions intensified with new formations of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The goal in this case is simple - to take advantage of the inexperience and ignorance of the situation of the arrivals to create a bridgehead on the left bank.
🔻 At night, seven Ukrainian boats landed up to seven DRGs of 6-7 people each after installing a smoke screen west of the Cossack Camps . The enemy groups took advantage of the replacement at the forefront and struck from the flank, reaching a settlement on the banks of the Dnieper.
The effect of surprise and belated reaction allowed the Armed Forces of Ukraine to land and advance unhindered towards the Camps , after which the Russian troops had already driven them back. According to colleagues from this direction, the Armed Forces of Ukraine went to the right bank.
🔻And in recent days, this is not the only area where the enemy is trying to gain a foothold. According to Dva Majorov , gunfights were also noted near the railway bridge near Peschanovka , where the RF Armed Forces achieved little tactical success.
Also, the activity of the Armed Forces of Ukraine remains near the Antonovsky bridge . The day before, the Ukrainian command sent two boats to replace units in this area. One of the boats was hit and went back, and the other was landed by the DRG, but was destroyed by fire.
🔻In the Golopristan sector , three boats of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with 15 people on board planned to establish an observation post on Domakhsky Island . Under artillery attacks, the boats turned around. One was able to get out from under the fire, and two were damaged and blown up by mines.”

Ukrainian special operations teams crossed the Dnipro at the end of April, five months ago. During that time Ukraine was able to take, hold, and expand a beachhead across a estuary, in Russian held territory, and is now advancing. During that time Russia artillery, air power, armor, special forces, meat wave attacks have not driven Ukrainian forces back across the Dnipro or wiped them out.
That is a clear indication Russia is not having their cake and eating it too like their Ministry of Defense says in its daily briefings.
Awesome. We can’t allow the Russians to take some of the best farmland in Europe—that is what this war is really about—Nazis was just a weak excuse intended to be swallowed by the Russian people.
I’ve been waiting for this. First they engaged the Ruskies over a broad front. Then, when they committed their best troops elsewhere, the Ukies crossed the Dnieper to fight the conscripts.
They better pick up the pace. Only a couple months of good campaign weather left.
Update: An attempted landing by Ukrainian troops in this area was stopped and the settlement is in Russian hands.
Next.
That’s a better place to cross. Thanks for posting.
Kazachyi Lageri settlement is under complete control of the Russian Army, following a landing on and then retreat from the left (eastern) bank of the Dnepr River of two small Ukrainian DRGs. Any other claims are disinformation.
@Slavyangrad
Here is a recent update by Dima at the ‘MILITARY SUMMARY’ channel. He routinely presents a pretty accurate situation assessment. Of course some ardent pro-Ukrainians claim he must be pro-Russian because he reports positive news when it favors the Russians. Of course he also reports on good news for the Ukrainians when that happens.
This recent Ukrainian river crossing is in a a state of flux so following developments is the best way to understand the military situation there and NOT RELY ON “SNAP SHOT” reporting of the situation at a single moment in time. Just IMHO, of course.

Any other sources verify this ? The river looks deep and wide at that point. I suppose Special Forces could breach enough soldiers over several nights, but still .... looks like a tough way to fight ... I’ll wait for more confirmation
From this link, pics of two POWs, three helmets, and five small arms weapons. The Ukie officially won’t say the operation is over, or continuing. So, it’s too soon to say if it was only a rain, or if it is the start of larger operation across the Dnieper.

Update on the conflict in Ukraine for August 9, 2023:
- Western analysts and media sources are beginning to admit the poor progress, heavy losses, and fundamental flaws of the Ukrainian offensive and beyond that, the unsustainable nature of the proxy war in the first place;
- Ukraine is shifting away from attempts to storm Russian lines and attempting instead to conduct attritional warfare, however, it lacks the material resources to do so which necessitated “storming” tactics in the first place;
- As Ukraine’s offensive falters on the battlefield, Kiev and its Western sponsors have been focusing on aerial and naval drone strikes to create the illusion Ukraine maintains the initiative;
- Quantities of artillery, armor, and trained manpower determine the duration of Ukraine’s offensive. The disposition of both Ukrainian and Russian forces including the reserves of both sides will determine if a breakthrough will occur;
- Russian military industrial capacity and the material resources it produces for the ongoing military operation ensures that no matter where Ukraine’s offensive ends on the battlefield, it will leave Ukrainian forces exhausted, depleted, and unable to sustain their fighting capacity;
- Industrial capability between the collective West and both Russia and China is and will remain into the foreseeable future leaning in favor of Russia and China;
- The West gambled and lost on “small wars” as it enters an end game for geopolitical unipolarity against Russia and China and the reality that modern warfare against peer and near-peer competitors requires industrial capacity the West doesn’t have and cannot obtain;
From the reports, the Ukies are still in the taller buildings in Western part of Kozachi Laheri and beyond. Their bridgehead across the Dnieper is expanding slowly. Russia can’t throw them back. This is very good news.
