🇷🇺 🇻🇪 Russian Warships arrive in Venezuela

🇮🇱❌🇵🇸 - AlQassam publishes new footage of attacks on IDF armored forces, this time in the months long ongoing battles of Tal-AlSultan, West of Rafah.

The video shows the Targeting of an MK.4M (Barak) with a 105mm Yassin (PG7-VR) tandem, the projectile hit the upper side of the turret, the results are unclear, however it has most likely blinded the tank by hitting the 360° Optics.

The second clip shows the targeting of a M113 Zelda variant with a 105mm Yassin (PG7-VR) tandem, this time from an elevated position, which struck the center of the vehicle (Crew space).

They then proceed to using a magnetic IED on the M113 Zelda carrier, which looked to be still in place since the crew was most certainly already neutralized (If it was actually crewed rather than being a UGM).

It'll be really interesting to see Hamas negotiation team this time after Sinwar became a leader, or if he'll even send a negotiation team since they've already agreed to Biden's proposal befote.
Sinwar is very different from Hanniya and never surrenders for anything in any agreements.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: Expansion of AFU Control Zone East and North of Sumy
What is known as of 5:00 PM on August 8, 2024

Despite attempts by the Russian joint grouping of forces (troops) to stop the advance of Ukrainian mobile groups, the scale of the crisis is widening: unfortunately, the tactics of Ukrainian formations, focusing on high-speed dashes, bypassing fortified areas and maximizing the zone of breakthrough without consolidation in the first stage, in their simplicity surpass the current capabilities of the Russian army to counterattack.

🔻In the Sudzha district, the zone of conditional control of Ukrainian formations has expanded to 30 km along the Diakonovo - Sudzha road.

▪️Pockets of resistance of the Russian army are being cut off and bypassed along the lateral roads. After the occupation of Kazachya Loknya in the north, as well as Mirnoye and Bondarevka in the south, Ukrainian formations entered Martynivka and engaged the troops stationed there in combat. After that, the settlement of Kruglyk was taken.

At the same time, a mobile AFU group moved along the highway further, reaching Bolshoye Soldatskoye and engaging in combat in the settlement. There are reports that clashes with enemy sabotage and reconnaissance groups are also taking place further along the highway.

▪️Fierce battles are raging in the surrounding settlements 15 km south of Lgov.

▪️In the context of active use of enemy electronic warfare in certain areas, the "fog of war" still prevails, so it would be premature to speak of the complete destruction of the strongholds that the enemy has passed or bypassed.

🔻In the Korenevo district, the AFU do not abandon attempts to capture the administrative center.

Simultaneous battles were fought at the entrance to Korenevo, and attempts were made to capture Olgovka and Kremyanoye. For part of the Ukrainian troops advancing in this area, it is necessary both to pin down the forces of the Russian Armed Forces in combat and to break through to the Rylsk - Lgov highway in order to expand the scale of the operational crisis of the Russian Armed Forces and stretch the forces of the Russian troops.

📌At the same time, Ukrainian formations have already begun digging in on the reached lines, introducing a second echelon. The capture of Sudzha has become an inspiring factor for the AFU, with which they are now trying to make up for their losses and demonstrate that the game is worth the candle.

The biggest problem in organizing the defense in the Kursk tactical direction remains the fragmentation of units and the lack of the proper number of forces, which are now allegedly being withdrawn from other directions. At the same time, Russian information resources, which are racing to write the names of brigades and divisions that are about to arrive (but never do), are adding chaos to the information space.
