A top Ukrainian general has threatened to use Western weapons to blow up a bridge linking mainland Russian to Russia-occupied Crimea.
When they get close enough, another two bridges that Maj Gen Marchenko may add to his list are the Perekop isthmus bridge and the Dzhankoi - Novooleksiivka bridge. These are both connecting western Crimea with the mainland.

They took Hostomel.

You can watch the videos of the assault. They’re online.

Watch the Video. They briefly captured it but with an unusable runway. In the process their two elite airborne units were decimated. So much for the idiot idea that the drive to Kyiv was a feint

I think of this as them giving the Russians something else so worry about more than an actual threat.


Good point. They have gotten some documentation to add to their worries.

Ukrainian intelligence officers got detailed technical documentation on "Crimean Bridge"

Details: In particular, it is reported that the document contains detailed information about the terrain, road surface, bridge piers, anti-landslide structures, entrances and exits and all the infrastructure of the complex.

What if I told you that once upon a time a very similar geopolitical situation occurred in the same general region of the world and we thought that for a while, but then decided to mobilize and get in there?

Was this the USA? The only country capable of landing a threatening force on US soil was the British Empire and they are long gone.

Reuters

Article discussing what is needed to really advance to kherson and a little about the importance of the area. No idea if any of the people quoted really know anything.

Could you please tell me since you are the Russian sympathizer here why they haven’t run over Ukraine by now? According to you their military never loses battles or takes heavy casualties so why then have they not claimed Ukraine for your beloved mother Russia?

I guess that applies on a smaller scale.

Putin/Russia = Hitler/Germany
Ukraine = Austria/Czechoslovakia

Blah blah blah we mobilize and enter the war not started by aliens invading the US.

Everyone seems to forget without the USA shipping entire factories to Russia, and all of their trucks, much of their uniforms, and a heckuva lot more, Hitler would have marched right into Moscow, Leningrad, Stalingrad, and taken its oilfields.

We sent a helluva lot more in WWII than we've sent or will sent to Ukraine to stop the facist Russians

Ukrainian Navy strikes Russian tugboat “Vasily Beh” with two missiles

The Ukrainian Defense Forces hit a Russian tugboat transporting weapons and ammunition to occupied Snake Island.

The boat was carrying the TOR anti-aircraft missile system designed for air and missile defense missions.

The Russian tugboat was hit by two missiles. This may be the first instance of the Ukrainian Naval Forces using Harpoon anti-ship missiles against the Russian invaders in the Black Sea.

I love the sight of burning Russian weapons/ soldiers in the morning.
