    Ukrainian GUR says it carried out a special operation - an amphibious landing, in the Tarkhankut peninsula of Crimea, where it destroyed several occupiers, as well as the S-400 air defence system. Russian officials tried to say the boats were destroyed, but independent sources are saying they all managed to get away.

    Time to see if Prigozhin had a killswitch.

    Interesting article on the American and British analysts' perceptions of the offensive. I think they make some good points about focusing on the main objective and allocating resources toward that goal. I also appreciated the specific example of the often-used, but vague, comparison between Soviet and NATO/Western style approaches: the issue of keeping competing factions within an army equally supplied. Ukraine’s Forces and Firepower Are Misallocated, U.S. Officials Say American strategists say Ukraine’s troops are too spread out and need to concentrate along the counteroffensive’s main front in the south https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/22/us/politics/ukraine-counteroffensive-russia-war.html?campaign_id=190&emc=edit_ufn_20230822&instance_id=100636&nl=from-the-times&regi_id=141347410&segment_id=142644&te=1&user_id=5edae170e2c7f9e85eb5207073ecafed

    That's unfortunate, but I think it'd be simpler overall for you to just get a throwaway twitter account so that you can read the threads, rather than having to get an additional thread reader link for every thread. Alternatively, I would think you should be able to copy the link of the thread in Surly and paste it into thread reader to see the full thread?

    Best line from the report: "The penis was present, but invaginated." Wow, way to kick the guy when he's down.

    More context: Russians continue to frantically attack Klishchiivka south of Bakhmut but they have a huge problem: the Ukrainian positions overlooking the village from which any movement can be monitored and Russian troops effectively repelled, which btw. happens on a daily base. (Screenshot 1) Due to the high losses, Russians tried to outflank the Ukrainian vantage position by attacking from the north, using 3 MBTs and 3 BMPs. (Screenshot 2) But an Ukrainian drone detected them approaching and the following barrage of Ukrainian artillery smashed 2 MBTs and 2 BMPs, destroying this Russian attack group, including scores of Russian infantry at these coordinates: 48°32'37"N 37°57'20"E Source of video: https://t.me/mysiagin/25971

    This is the life of a Russian air defense operator. If they turn on their radar, they are locked onto by an anti-radiation missile (HARM) from a Ukrainian plane. The HARM locks on and keep going to the site of the radar, even after they turn in off. Ukraine has eliminated so many Russian AD systems that their drones are now flying all over the Russian lines and beyond. [Also they likely recovered this tape when UA advanced to this location. Another possible indication of UA advances that are still not posted due to opsec.]

    Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine Hanna Maliar said that after media reports about the relocation of the 82nd Separate Airborne Assault Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Russian troops conducted 5 air strikes on it in a day. She noted that this is "the price of the headlines about where the 82nd Brigade was moved." https://t.me/annamaliar/1032 "...in prison" https://twitter.com/Igor_from_Kyiv_/status/1693602110879797389?s=20

    For the first time, the Armed Forces of #Ukraine were able to completely destroy a strategic nuclear bomber of the Russian Federation This happened as a result of a drone attack on an airfield in the #Novgorod region. Russian media write that Russia has no engineering and technical base for the new construction of strategic bombers.

    Ukrainian drones hit the Russian "Soltsy-2" Air Base in Novgorod Oblast. The air base is home to the Tupolev Tu-22M3, a strategic bomber used also for missile attacks against Ukraine. The Russian MoD already confirms the damage of "one plane", likely one of the bombers. Coordinates: 58° 8'15.58"N 30°19'57.83"E
