Russian invasion of Ukraine

[AlfGreyruinedmyday]

Caspian Sea is big, but I doubt Russia would have built and launched a sub into it. Checking - they have 8 corvettes - the biggest vessel of theirs in the sea

Can you send a link about the sub that went through the Bosporus?

The Caspian sea is an inland sea. The Russians may have subs in it but they're as useful as us having subs in Lake Windermere.

Yes I know. They won’t have subs in it - it’s not big enough to warrant construction of a sub building shipyard.
Nor is it really deep enough, to effectively have subs that won’t be easily detectable.
And a quick wiki look, shows the Caspian flotilla has 8 corvettes and then lesser sized offensive ships. Probably just to counter Iran.

My main question directed at you was about the sub coming through the Bosporus- if you can point to a link to that, please.

Can see smoke and hear gunfire but nothing sensitive

Before the gallows are fully erected.

The exact opposite is true.

Explanation 1.
On July 4th it was reported that Luhansk province had been occupied in its entirety by the Russians.
Yesterday, the Ukrainians re-entered Luhansk.
Ipso facto, the Russians' boast that they had 100% of Luhansk province is no longer a fact.

Explanation 2.
The comment about the Russian cruise missiles refers to a story of last week(?) which reported that a Russian submarine with cruise missiles on it had sneaked into the Black Sea through the Bosphorus. I assumed that the Russians had used all of their stock of cruise missiles held in Crimea and that the missiles fired had to be from that vessel.

I am hoping to provide evidence regarding the sub story.

Ye, sorry mate, jumped the gun abit. I've deleted the post.

No need to apologise.
I re-read my comment and I have to admit it could easily be read as mocking the Ukrainians rather than the Russians.
I do read over what I write but on this occasion I was slack.

Interesting read, observations from a Russian invader within Kherson. Apparently from a neo-nazi group, calls the locals cowards, but admits they don't walk alone within the city, and always check under their car (Russian plates removed) for bombs:

This document describing the situation in the occupied Kherson was found on Telegram, shared by the neo-nazi group “Rusich” which is taking part in the war in Ukraine. The original can be found here: https://telegra.ph/Strah-i-nenavist-v-Hersone-09-06 The post mentions the contempt of locals...

Read previously that it usually denotes some sort of fertiliser type material.

It signals nitrogen dioxide, usually because nitrates (also used in fertilisers) are in the explosive weapon.

Wonder if the Ukrainians are getting any help with someone leaking Russian info hence the fast progress. Maybe someone in Russia needs putin to look a fool when crimea gets taken back

The Orcs are abandoning their positions on the front line in Kherson.
Thing is,they have been well dug in for months in these positions.
Now they are out in the open,or in positions where they won't have time to dig in.
When they abandoned their positions,where they abandoning to?
They are stuck,they have nowhere to go and will be low on ammo,food and water.
The Dnipro is only going to get colder........it's going to be a mass surrender or a massacre,IMO.
Orcs will be out of Kherson by the end of October at the latest,again opinion.

Slava Ukraini.
