Putin beordrar styrkor att gå in i Ukraina - INVASION NU (2022-02-24)

People stubbornly continue to send us videos from Zmeiny Island as irrefutable proof that the Russian Armed Forces are doing poorly.

Let's close the issue once and for all.

▪️After the failure of the Tor air defense system on the island, a decision was made to withdraw the RF units.

▪️Ukrainian Su-27s are working on empty fortifications. The bombs were dropped at extremely low altitudes and extremely unprofessionally: the companion aircraft miraculously remained intact.

The first bomb did not work, but the 2nd exploded immediately: the shells were old and unstable.

▪️The second video shows the destruction of one of the Ukrainian Mi-8s by Russian forces. The Bayraktar TB2 UAV filmed and transmitted a beautiful picture of the victorious landing to the Ukrainian command post.

But something went wrong.

▪️Both videos are now being used for propaganda, creating a false picture. Recording your own Mi-8 with landing troops as Russian losses is the highest degree of Ukrainian military perversion.

The battle for Zmeiny island continues.

The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation have chosen an extremely correct tactic in such circumstances: unlike the Armed Forces of Ukraine, sponsors and “partners” who need to detonate an information bomb, the Russian command does not put pressure on Russian troops.

And now this pressure is playing into the hands of the RF Armed Forces.

While the Armed Forces of Ukraine are unsuccessfully trying to destroy the Russian Navy grouping near the island, Russian troops are working on air targets. Another confirmation of this is the downed Su-24 and Mi-24. The Ukrainians are trying to clear the way for landing on Zmeiny, throwing military equipment into a suicidal attack.

At the same time, the RF Armed Forces continue to disable critical facilities: a communication center at the Chervonoglinskoye military airfield was destroyed at night, and in the morning air defense batteries were hit east of Odessa.

Taking into account the fact that American M777 howitzers equipped with Excaliburs are deployed in Zatoka (Odessa region), the Armed Forces of Ukraine can operate on the territory of the island from a maximum distance. At this stage, the RF Armed Forces do not need a physical presence on the island. But for Ukraine, control over the island is critical.

For some reason, other analysts completely misinterpret the current situation. Zmeiny turned into one big trap. Russian troops quickly learned from their mistakes, and now they are squeezing out the maximum benefit for themselves by working on Ukrainian targets from a safe distance.
