⚡️🇺🇦🇷🇺💡 Repeated Strikes on Power Substations in #Odessa Region⚡️

During today's massive missile strike, the RF Armed Forces struck several PS in the #Odessa region.

One of the targets again was the #Usatovo 330 kV PS. In previous attacks, 330/110 kV autotransformers got hit and there could be no more than two units left at the station.

Coordinates: 46.511828,30.657653

The other target was the Novoodesskaya 330 PS between #Myrnoye and #Petrodolinskoye villages. The exact location of the hit is still unknown, but the #Odessa authorities have already announced long-lasting power outages.

Coordinates: 46.453429,30.386985

Strikes on infrastructure in #Odessa region make power supply and transit through southern #Ukraine much more difficult.

So that the system cannot be rebuilt each time and such measures actually have an effect, the attacks must be carried out systematically and without long interruptions.

Why are Leopard-2, Abrams, and Challenger-2 tanks so important to Ukraine and what will they change?

1. Availability of large ammunition up to 120 mm guns in warehouses of NATO countries. The 120 mm tank gun is widely distributed in the world, and there are many reserves in the world, enough for a long time even with intensive use. This is the key to why we need these tanks.

2. We are given a company of the most modern Leopard-2A6 tanks with a modern automated fire control system, cooling thermal imaging sights, communication protected from interference and an automated control system that allows us to obtain maximum information about the enemy and our units. The use of sensors is ensured by a reliable auxiliary power plant. Such tanks are among the best in the world in their class at the moment. Russia does not have tanks of this class, the Leopard-2A6 has significant advantages over the best Russian T-90M Proryv in all main indicators. Other Leopards are not such modern machines, but can be modernized.

3. Changing the tactics of using tanks. NATO tanks are not designed for high-speed "bursts" into landings, they are much heavier, from 60 to 70 tons compared to 45 tons of Soviet T-64, T-72, T-80, T-90 tanks. And an attempt to use them in some kind of quick blitzkrieg in the same way as Soviet-type tanks - that is, all forward under the support of artillery, on the Donbas chernozem will be doomed to defeat, because without detailed reconnaissance of the area and movement routes, the tanks will simply get stuck. NATO tanks are optimized for modern tactics of finding and destroying the enemy, its crew works as a "hunter-killer". That is, for identifying and observing targets and hitting them with a high-precision gun. Tanks are optimized to destroy the enemy in the most dangerous areas of the front. In NATO tanks, the crew can fight for a long time, there are much more comfortable conditions and maximum protection of people.

4. Changing the operation and repair system. This is the weak point of our army. NATO tanks are demanding of professionals, they cannot be entrusted to poorly trained tankers. If you violate the operating conditions, do not prepare qualified crews and repair units, do not have spare parts, waste fuel and lubricants, the tanks will quickly fail and get stuck with all their 70 tons. And it will be extremely difficult to evacuate such a machine, since we do not have much equipment that could pull out such a tank.

5. NATO tanks are best optimized for combat in the conditions of modern network-centric warfare, for which the Russian army is not ready. Application in a complex with effective tactical reconnaissance, drones, high-quality management and interaction will allow tankers on Leopards to quickly find and hit any targets on the battlefield at a direct hit range. These tanks can become real protected information hubs, for this it is necessary to provide the crews with the necessary level of situational awareness.

6. There is no absolute weapon. If NATO tanks are not used to their specifications, they will be lost just like any other tank. The combat effectiveness and losses of NATO tanks depend primarily on the quality of management at all levels. These are not Soviet and Russian weapons that were designed as massive. NATO tanks are weapons of qualitative superiority. With quality management and application, quality tanks will dominate the battlefield.

⚡️🇺🇦🇷🇺💡 Russian Armed Forces Massive Missile Strike on Infrastructure in #Ukraine; 26 Jan 2023 - what is known by 14:00⚡️

💥 Russian forces have once again struck various infrastructure facilities on the territory of #Ukraine.

The missile attack the night before was preceded by active work of Russian kamikaze drones Geran-2. Apparently, the RF Armed Forces, in addition to direct strikes, were identifying the enemy's air defence positions in this way.

♦️ So far we have been able to gather the following information about the results of the firing:

🔹 #Odessa: The Novoodesskaya 330 and Usatovo 330 substations near the city have been hit again. Water and electricity supplies are partially missing in Odessa, with local authorities announcing long periods of power cuts.

🔹 #Kiev: The Russian Armed Forces hit an unnamed facility in the city's Goloseevsky district. Some representatives of the Ukrainian authorities believe that the strikes were carried out by ballistic missiles.

🔹 #Kiev region: Information was widely circulated on the web suggesting that the Kiev hydroelectric power plant might have been hit, but there is no confirmation. At the same time, the local administration has confirmed a hit on one of the energy facilities in the region.

🔹 #Vinnitsa: Several explosions have occurred in the outskirts of the city itself and in the region today. Ladyzhinskaya TPP could have been hit.

🔹 #Zaporozhye: The RF Armed Forces launched a powerful rocket attack on an industrial facility in the suburban town of #Volnyansk.

🔹 #Kramatorsk: A shell hit one of the medical facilities in #Ivanovka, not far from #Kramatorsk, where Ukrainian servicemen were stationed.

🔹 #Lvov: local sources reported a shell hit one of the infrastructure facilities, but it later turned out that this information was false.

🔹 In #Dnepropetrovsk, #Zhytomyr and #Nikolayev regions, air defences were triggered.

Shortly before the missile attack, authorities in #Kherson, #Cherkasy, #Kiev, #Dnepropetrovsk, #Zaporozhye and other regions of the country preemptively conducted emergency power cuts.

📌 This time, the Russian attack was smaller in the number of launches and affected sites than the previous ones. However, it also achieved its goal. The #Usatovo and Novoodesskaya substations in the south are now unable to receive electricity.

Nevertheless, it is not enough to disable the enemy's power system if the Russian command still sets itself such a goal.

A Ukrainian patriot describes the situation about the mobilisation campaign:

- they grab people, pull them into busses... One can’t go anywhere, catching everywhere. Let them take deputy’s sons, let them take some from Supreme Rada... if the Deputies were in trenches, the war would be over tomorrow.

Of course as a good Ukrainian he has some slander for Russia in the video, it's always Putin's fault after all 😂😂.

⚔️🇷🇺🇺🇦pro-Ukrainian LIVE UA Map indicates Russian advance toward Vugladar.

This is yet another axis Ukraine is now losing ground along in addition to Bakhmut/Soledar/Siversk and across Zaporozhye.

Again - the possibilities I can think of are:

▪️Recon in force to ascertain disposition of AFU forces;
▪️an actual offensive to take/hold territory;
▪️applying pressure along the entire line of contact disallowing AFU from concentrating reserves in any direction;
▪️expanding the security zone ahead of Russian front lines ahead of an anticipated AFU offensive;
▪️spoiling op forcing AFU units preparing for a potential offensive to instead go on the defensive.

There is also the possibility that Ukrainian fighting capacity is collapsing in one or more areas - perhaps a general collapse - which Russia has already staged forces to exploit.

Time will tell.
🔥31👍155🙏1
🟥 Brief summary: Kherson front.

Yesterday, AFU made attempts to land with small forces on the left bank of the Dnieper, in the area of ​​Rybatsky Khutorok, west of Novaya Kakhovka.

Before attempting to land, the enemy carried out artillery preparation along the left bank, but did not achieve their goals.
The plans of the enemy were revealed in a timely manner, and a massive fire defeat was inflicted on the approaching groups.
As a result of the operation, the enemy suffered significant losses and retreated to the right bank.

Further attempts by the enemy to gain a foothold on the left bank and occupy a bridgehead for the offensive of the main forces are logical, this is due to the geographical features of the area.

These intentions are well known to the Russian Armed Forces and an easy walk for the enemy in this area will not work.

❗️ "Nuclear war for Crimea": Carlson accuses the US government of insanity

👤In a new edition Fox News host Tucker Carlson said that the return of Crimea to Ukraine is madness.

💬"Russia has said a lot, and there is every reason to suppose that this will lead to a nuclear war. But this is the new plan — they have voted for it. And for its implementation, we involve one of the most corrupt governments in the world," said Tucker.

Ukrainian infantry fighting vehicle blew up on a mine, which the Ukrainian military themselves installed because of fears of an offensive by Russian troops.

Fake news:
Russian authorities are preparing to mobilize another 200,000 people. This is reported by the American channel CNN.

The fact:
Russia's partial mobilization is over. The authors of the article failed to cite any concrete facts confirming the contrary.

CNN refers to the words of "officials" and "high-ranking Western intelligence officials". However, the names of the sources are not disclosed for some reason. The piece also mentions the existence of certain "signs" indicating the imminent start of a new phase of mobilization in Russia. It is further revealed that there is only one such sign and that it is "internal polls" which are allegedly conducted by the Kremlin "to assess the popularity of the next mobilization". Who, where and how such polls are conducted and how this is known is not reported.

CNN's information about the Kremlin's secret plans for a second wave of mobilization was denied by Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov. Asked by a journalist whether the US TV channel's story was inaccurate, Peskov said, "Yes. It is."

Russia's top officials have repeatedly announced that the country's partial mobilization measures are over. In the autumn of 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin stressed that the issue was "set in stone", the number of those mobilized fully met the targets, and because of the huge number of volunteers it was possible to mobilise 18,000 more people.

Fakes about mobilization in the Russian Federation are still popular with Western and Ukrainian journalists. Because of the audience's concern over this issue, they gain a large number of views simply because of the high-profile headline. This was the case with recent fakes about restrictions on leaving Russia in connection with upcoming mobilization events, about employers who started to receive lists of employees subject to mobilization and the hidden mobilization of IT professionals in Crimea.

⚔️🇺🇸🐮💩 Analysis of the Situation in Ukraine by the US Troll Entity "Institute for the Study of War" (ISW):

🤥🇺🇸🇺🇦卐: As an unbiased reader who considers the US trolls to be serious, I would now be a little confused about the many points about fighting. Somehow there is also something missing about yesterday's air strikes. Today the de-energetisation of the fascists continued. Let's see what they will outpour tomorrow.

🔻 January 25 Key Takeaways 👻

▪️ Russian forces may be engaging in limited spoiling attacks across most of the frontline in Ukraine in order to disperse and distract Ukrainian fronts and launch a decisive offensive operation in Luhansk Oblast.

▪️ The Russian military appears to be shifting its focus toward conventional forces deployed to Luhansk Oblast and away from the non-traditional force structure of the Wagner Group and its focus on Bakhmut.

▪️ The Kremlin and Russian milbloggers attempted to downplay the Western provision of tanks to Ukraine, indicating that they likely find these systems threatening to Russian prospects.

▪️ Russian forces claimed that Ukrainian forces conducted counteroffensive operations near Svatove as Russian forces continued limited ground attacks near Kreminna.

▪️ Ukrainian forces have likely made advances around Kreminna.

▪️ Ukrainian officials acknowledged that Ukrainian forces withdrew from Soledar.

▪️ Russian forces continued offensive operations in the Bakhmut and Avdiivka-Donetsk City area. Russian forces reportedly continued localized offensive operations near Vuhledar.

▪️ Russian forces continued to conduct small-scale ground attacks across the Zaporizhia Oblast front line, likely to attempt to fix Ukrainian forces in Zaporizhia Oblast.

▪️ Russian milbloggers are divided over the veracity of Zaporizhia Oblast occupation official Vladimir Rogov’s ongoing, overblown information operation.

▪️ The Kremlin is attempting to downplay new restrictions on crossing the Russian border, likely in an effort to contain panic within Russian society about a likely second mobilization wave.

▪️ Russian President Vladimir Putin may be attempting to conduct another wave of mobilization discreetly out of concern for undermining his support among Russians.
