The resistance movement ATESH announces that it has conducted reconnaissance at one of the key fuel infrastructure facilities of the Russian Black Sea Fleet in the temporarily occupied Sevastopol.

 

According to the agents, the facility in question is the Yugtorsan oil terminal, located on Cape Manganari in the Kozacha Bay area.

 

The facility serves as the main oil depot for the Black Sea Fleet, storing various types of fuel, fuel oil, and petroleum, and also operates specialized transportation and logistics services.

Very kind of them to tell the Russians in advance, though it could be a bluff, lol.

Russia's rumored jet-powered versions of the Iranian Shahed are appearing in Ukraine's air defense reports

 

• Ukrainian reports are starting to document the use of Russia's new jet-propelled Shahed drones.
• One version, unofficially dubbed the Geran-3, is said to fly up to 500 miles per hour.
• Such speeds would pose key problems for Ukraine's air defenses if jet drones are launched en masse.

Ukraine Sets World Record with Longest One-Way Drone Strike Deep Inside Russia

 

The target was a strategic Russian radar installation, and the drone traveled more than 1,800 kilometers (1,118 miles) to get there The historic drone strike hit a “Voronezh-M” over-the-horizon radar station near Orsk, deep inside Russia’s Orenburg region.

The radar station is part of Russia’s strategic missile warning system.

 

Though Orsk is about 1,800 kilometers from Ukraine’s border, the drone likely launched from even farther west, given that attacks usually begin from secure territory well behind the front lines.

The drone’s long-range capabilities allowed it to bypass multiple layers of Russian air defenses.

Russia has built a massive drone factory to pump out Iranian-designed drones. Now it’s leaving Tehran out in the cold

 

“Finally, something no one else has,” a Russian journalist says during a TV documentary on the country’s largest drone factory. “Such mass production of two-stroke engines doesn’t exist anywhere else in Russia.” 

The factory in question, Alabuga, 600 miles east of Moscow in Russia’s Tatarstan region, has been pumping out increasing numbers of the Iranian-designed Shahed-136 attack drone (known in Russia as Geran), but the man behind the site believes this may be one of its greatest achievements.

“This is a complete facility,” CEO Timur Shagivaleev adds in the documentary, explaining most of the components for the drone are now produced locally. “Aluminium bars come in, engines are made from them; microelectronics are made from electric chips; fuselages are made from carbon fiber and fiberglass – this is a complete location.”

Crop Duster Armed With Air-To-Air Missiles Appears In Ukraine

 

A Czechoslovakian-made agricultural plane toting Soviet-era heat-seeking missiles is Ukraine’s latest drone-killer.

The apparent latest addition to Ukraine’s growing series of ad-hoc anti-drone measures is one of its most impressive so far: a propeller-driven agricultural aircraft toting infrared-guided air-to-air missiles under the wings. While the operational status of the modified aircraft is unknown, the development highlights continued Ukrainian innovation in terms of extemporized air defense systems and the use of repurposed legacy missiles.

The turboprop-powered Zlin Z-137 Agro Turbo is seen swooping low over a Ukrainian cornfield, very much its traditional operating environment. In this case, however, it sports a single R-73 air-to-air missile under each wing. The agricultural plane also appears to have received a military-style dull gray overall paint scheme, with white identification stripes on the rear fuselage to reduce the risk of ‘friendly fire.’ Details of the date and location of the video are not immediately available.

Once a scoundrel allway a scoundrel.

Since Trump wants to give away what doesn't belong to him, he's so desperate for the nobel peace prize he will try and do anything with Putin's complicity to be nominated, but Trump has no right whatsoever to negotiate another country land and borders, it's against international law and we know he doesn't give a rats arssssssss about LAW but Ukraine will not accept any deal that will give away it's land and the UK and EU already gave Trump their piece of mind as well, thus the so called next week meeting may be postponed or cancelled because the interested parties are not or will not be involved. What Trump is doing or trying to do his rewarding Putin for invading Ukraine and killing 1,000's of innocent civilians and kids, destroying another country's infrastructures, land, people and so forth, Putin should not be rewarded for that on the contrary he should pay and be punished for that, pay for rebuilding the country infrastructures as there is not enough money to pay for the ones who died unnecessarily

in case Trump didn't get it the first time, Zelensky and the EU are repeating the same concerns, there are NO rewards for the invaders, the only land they could possible have it's 6 feet under and that will be free of charge

Along with plastering sensitive internal photos of  factories of drone factories all over the internet, now this. Are they idiots? Loose Lips obviously not a well known expression in Russia.

 

 

 

 

So the Ford-Sollers plant is now repurposed to crank out Iranian designed drones. Since 2015, the engine plant had been cranking out Duratec 4-cylinder engines. In 2022, Ford sold its 49% stake in the plant to Sollers, with a buyback clause by 2027 if the situation changed.

 

Sollers is left with a grim product range; some cack looking rehashed UZA 4x4s and the Atlant Transit lookalike and generic Chinese/Japanese style Argo minivan (actually a Chinese JAC's Sunray N25 and N35 van). Given their only assembly line is now making Islamic Republic drone engines, I suppose they are just gluing badges on Chinese vans. Maybe not even that.

 

Handy corporate drone footage of the main assembly building.

 

 

 

I am curious if a turning towards a more dramitic change. New stradegy in offense by having the bombing direction realinged towards infrastructures near the public within Russia. How effective this might be.

Just asking for a friend...

let's hope this is true and Putin will be going back to his Russia empty hands or worse he wont' go back to Russia but go to jail. If Trump really has cojones and he's not afraid of facing Putin, then the meeting would go the way it should but the problem is TACO and that's nobody can predict in what kind of mood Trump will/would be.

and the start of the week with some good news from the front lines, Ukrainians are doing great with so little, imagine Trump follow up on his promise to allow the NATO members to supply US made ammunition then the Orcs would  packing whatever they could. Why does the US keeps control of the weapons purchased and paid by the countries buying them, it's like we buy a car , pay for it and then the manufacturer doesn't let us use it with their permission or if we want to sell it we do need the manufacturer permission, what type of ownership is that

Trump Envoy’s Embarrassing Gaffe Could Blow Back on President

https://au.news.yahoo.com/trump-envoy-embarrassing-gaffe-could-151222752.html

 

 

One of Vladimir Putin's closest allies has mysteriously died at the age of 57. It comes after a string of similar deaths as Putin prepares to meet Donald Trump in Alaska to discuss a possible end to the war in Ukraine.

 

Mikhail Kenin, one of the most successful businessmen in Russia, was the largest shareholder in a major Russian property empire. However, the company he served for years working at confirmed he had passed away on Sunday (August 10).

 

The reasoning for Mikhail's death has not been publicly made available, according to Intellinews. However, his bizarre and sudden passing comes as the latest in an increasingly suspicious string of deaths of some of Russia's economic elite.

Ukraine Receives SkyNode S Kits To Break Russia’s Drone Supremacy

 

For the past three years, the Russia-Ukraine war has been defined by drone and counter-drone technologies, with the side deploying superior systems gaining a tactical edge on the battlefield. Over this timeframe, the battle for drone supremacy has settled into a stalemate as both sides employed advanced electronic warfare systems that limited their opponent’s ability to conduct drone operations.

 

According to the Institute for the Study of War, Russia has now broken this deadlock by fielding new drone technologies that are less vulnerable to electronic warfare. As Russia uses this advantage to secure tactical gains, Ukraine is responding by increasing AI integration into its drones, particularly those designed for counter-drone missions. This effort recently received a significant boost through an initiative by the United States to supply Ukraine with 33,000 SkyNode S drone kits.

SkyNode S Drone Kits

The SkyNode S drone kits are part of a $50 million contract awarded to Auterion, an American and German defense company. The system enables onboard neural networks and real-time image processing for target recognition, tracking, and vision-based navigation, while reducing dependence on GPS and external control signals.

Maybe if the collective leadership weren’t so corrupt and hadn’t stolen billions in aid given willingly and wholeheartedly by Western allies the situation would be different. But the reality is that Ukraine is losing, Russia is making significant gains on the battlefield, and under Trump, America has effectively stepped back as Ukraine’s major ally.

Europe, meanwhile, is financially tapped out. If Russia were truly the existential threat they claim it to be, European nations would be urgently restocking their own armies and armaments.

At this stage, every life lost in this senseless war is exactly that a senseless loss. For all his crassness, Trump seems to understand this. We are on the brink of Europe realizing that its collective will, however strong or weak, no longer rules the global stage. Empires rise and fall, and the world keeps turning but the writing was on the wall from the very beginning, and that was always my position from the start. I take no pleasure in being proved right. I see we have lost @thaibeachlovers and others who seem to have left the site permanently.
