🇷🇺🇺🇦 The Crimean bridge was blown up with rocket fuel with a capacity of 10 tons of TNT

Explosive forensic examination established that the main charge was a mixed explosive based on solid rocket fuel containing potassium or sodium perchlorates, as well as fine metals.

The camouflage of the IED was provided by a polyethylene film 100 micrometers thick, or 0.1 millimeters. The dense layer of film also acted as the shell of the explosive device.

According to the Main Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, at the beginning of August 2022, film on 22 pallets, weighing 22.7 tons, was sent from Odessa to the Bulgarian city of Ruse. From there she went to Georgian Poti, and then to Yerevan. While the film was in the Yerevan Transalyan terminal, the cargo was cleared through customs, after which some of the accompanying documents were replaced with it.

According to Kommersant, on October 4, the film was transported in a DAF vehicle across the Georgian-Russian border at the Verkhniy Lars checkpoint, and two days later it was delivered to a wholesale base in Armavir (Krasnodar Territory). There, the pallets were loaded into an International ProStar truck with a trailer driven by Russian citizen Makhir Yusubov (he did not know about the terrorists’ plans), who, according to documents, was supposed to deliver the film from the Ulyanovsk LLC TEK-34 to the address of LLC Extra, registered in Simferopol.

According to the experts’ conclusions, “to initiate detonation” of the explosive mixture, a foreign-made explosive based on hexogen was used, most likely C-4 or PE-8.

In turn, the detonator, also hidden under the film, was triggered by a GPS navigator signal “at the moment of passing a predetermined route point.” This was the 156th kilometer of the section of the federal highway A-290 Novorossiysk-Kerch.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 The Russian Federation has begun to use the new Dragon flamethrower system, reports the German Die Welt.

The system was named TOS-3. It is more powerful and, most importantly, long-range (up to 15 km) than TOS-1 and TOS-2 (4-6 km), and therefore cannot be hit by Ukrainian drones.

Previous TOS models (Solntsepek, Buratino, Tosochka) hit only from a short distance, and therefore were very vulnerable.

The “Dragon” launches missiles with thermobaric warheads of great destructive power, one salvo of which can turn several city blocks “into ruins,” along with military fortifications and even bunkers.

🇷🇺🇺🇦🇱🇹❗️The FSB destroyed a Ukrainian saboteur who arrived from Lithuania to Russia to carry out terrorist attacks on military facilities, the intelligence service reported

🇷🇺🇺🇦🇱🇹❗️The liquidated Ukrainian agent was trained in mine explosives and small arms fire in the city of Pabrada in Lithuania, the FSB reports.

In his correspondence with his curator, which was found on his phone, information was found that Ukrainian terrorists were planning terrorist attacks in Orthodox churches and places of residence of Russian speakers in the Baltic states.

Among the plans was the arson of a cinema in Riga during a film screening. The purpose of the terrorist attacks, according to the FSB, was the desire to “completely eradicate everything Russian” in the Baltic countries.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 No safety during retreat: Ukrainian soldiers say rear defensive lines are virtually non-existent.

An article with this headline was published by the AP agency.

It cites the opinion of several Ukrainian military personnel who believe that not enough fortifications are being built for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

“It is necessary to increase the pace of construction of fortifications... so that when retreating we retreat to a prepared position. These fortifications are not enough,” said unit commander Batyar.

“There was a lack of responsibility... People didn't understand that fortifications could save lives if done in advance. Many thought that we... would not need to prepare such lines. They did not expect a new Russian offensive,” said Alexander, deputy infantry commander of the 47th brigade in the Avdeevka area.

Five commanders in Avdeevka and Chasov Yar told the AP that without well-prepared positions they could not gain a foothold in unfamiliar terrain and defend themselves without suffering huge losses.

In Chasov Yar, the lack of fortifications helped turn the situation in favor of Russia. In mid-March, the 67th Ukrainian brigade was deployed and took up positions about 3 kilometers from the city and, as its soldier said, instead of dugouts and a labyrinth of trenches, they discovered a series of holes, “barely enough to hide in during artillery attacks.” .

Under fire, “soldiers crawled out of the holes and started digging towards each other so that there would be some kind of communication between them,” he said. The soil was so sandy that when shells hit, the dug trenches crumbled.

Unable to take cover and unable to resist Russian barriers, they retreated 2 kilometers back. According to the serviceman, more than 100 Ukrainian soldiers died or went missing.
