βš‘οΈπŸ‡·πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦πŸš€ On the attempted Strike by the AFU on #Kerch with the Grom-2 Tactical Missile System⚑️

πŸ—“ Today around 08:30 (22 Apr 2023)
, Ukrainian formations attempted another strike on the Crimean peninsula from the Grom-2 operational and tactical missile system.

The missile was shot down over the waters of the Sea of Azov near #Kerch by RF Armed Forces' 3rd Squadron anti-aircraft gunners of the 18th Anti-Aircraft Missile Regiment. There were no fatalities or injuries, the shrapnel fell into the water.

In contrast to two previous attempts of πŸ‘‰ strikes in #Gvardeyskoye and #Feodosiya from the #Odessa region, the AFU changed its positioning area for the Grom-2 missile launches. This time the launch was conducted from the vicinity of #Zaporozhye and the distance was about 290 km.

Meanwhile, last night Ukrainian formations attempted to hit #Armyansk in the north of the peninsula from the "Alder" multiple rocket launcher system at a distance of about 100 km. All the shells were shot down by air defence crews.

πŸ“Œ The Intensity of the Shelling remains the same at the moment. However, the relocation of the Grom-2 missile system to #Zaporozhye indicates that the testing of the battery of four complexes at #Tuzla in #Odessa region has been completed and the missiles have been brought into service.

The new positioning area in #Zaporozhye makes it possible to expand the geography of tactical missile use not only in #Crimea and near the Kerch Bridge, but also in the south of #Zaporozhye region and in the DPR. In addition, the redeployment of tactical missiles fully correlates with the preparation of the AFU for an offensive.

βš‘οΈπŸ‡·πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦πŸŒŠ In the early Hours of this Morning, two Ukrainian Naval Drones tried to strike the Coastal Bay in #Sevastopol⚑️

According to Sevastopol Governor Mikhail Razvozhayev, one was destroyed by Anti-Submarine Maintenance, while the other exploded spontaneously. So far, all the drones have been hit. Sevastopol Bay has been closed off to ship traffic.

πŸ”ΉIn this Case, the drone attack looks more like an assessment of the Black Sea Fleet's defences before the announced offensive, which should happen to please the West regardless of the AFU's readiness to do so.

At the same time, at the beginning or right before the resumption of hostilities, one should expect a massive launch of both unmanned aerial vehicles and marine vehicles, as well as strikes from the Grom-2 OTRK, the geography of which has πŸ‘‰ expanded.

Today's attempt will hardly be the only one. The closer to the start of the offensive, the more active the AFU will be to probe #Crimea's defences and stress the local population.

βš‘οΈπŸ‡·πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦πŸŽ― On the attempted Attack by the AFU on the #Kerch Bridge⚑️

πŸ”Ή Ukrainian formations
have once again attempted to strike Russian facilities in the Republic of #Crimea.

Anti-aircraft gunners of the 31st Air Defence Division of the RF Armed Forces intercepted a missile north of #Taman. There were no casualties or damage, the wreckage fell into the waters of the Sea of Azov.

The previous time the AFU πŸ‘‰ attempted to attack the peninsula in the middle of last month: 11 drones were neutralized thanks to the coordinated work of the air defence and electronic warfare units.

πŸ”Ή It is not known for certain what the Ukrainian formations were trying to strike with. The head of Crimea, Sergei Aksyonov, said that it was a cruise missile, but even with a maximum range of 300 km, Ukrainian aircraft would have to launch near the front line, which is dangerous due to the actions of our air defence.

The most likely use is an upgraded missile from the S-200 complex, which has been converted to hit on a ballistic trajectory. The range of such a missile is about 400 km.

❗️And in this situation it is curious that the AFU struck right after the official acknowledgement of the organization of the attack on the Crimean bridge on 8 October 2023, which to some extent may mean the intentions to intensify attacks on the important logistic object.
