A little 🧵Based on reports from partisans and WEBINT and other #OSINT, we have put together a list of locations where Iranians have reportedly been spotted recently. Most of these sightings take place in Crimea, although also Belarus seems to be a hotspot
Russia is using the Ukrainian peninsula to launch Iranian-made kamikaze drones on civilian infrastructure in the southern part of Ukraine, main targets seem to be civilian targets such as the powergrid and municipal services.
Opuk Training Ground :
Partisan reports suggest that Iranians have been operating around this military facility. We were unable to observe any unusual activity in this area. However we will be keeping tabs on the area.
Kirovskoye Air Base :
Iranians have reportedly been sighted at this airbase in eastern Crimea. Recent activity can be observed at this airbase.
A new facility has been built on the airbase, consisting of new hangars. A possible ground control station is visible in this new facility. This facility is probably used for the operation of Kronshtadt Orion drones.
Dzhankoi:
Iranian instructors were reported in the area around the local airbase by multiple sources. However, despite the intense activity on the airbase which is the main helicopter base in Crimea, no activity connected to the drones can be seen.
Mayak radar station :
Partisans pointed to the presence of Iranians in this area. Two probable Shahed-136 launchers can be seen deployed at a military facility here.Deployment of these launchers coincided in time with reports of 🇷🇺 aquiring these drones
We believe this location is the most likely candidate in Crimea for launching the drones that Russia uses to target vital infrastructure in Ukraine and specificly Odessa & Mykolaiv.. Soon we will release a follow-up 🧵 on this site
Kherson Oblast :
We have received information from a varity of sources, that Iranians may be operating around the town of Hladkivka and the port of Zaliznyi in the Kherson Oblast. Possible Iranians may be stationed here to instruction Russian drone operaters.
Belarus :
Iranians and Russians were reportedly seen in the village of Mikulichi in Belarus. Reports suggest that Russia is launching Iranian drones from this area towards Kyiv and other Ukrainian city's. We have not been able to confirm this information at this time.

Little 🧵 on the visits of Mr. #HIMARS to the town of #Beryslav ,Kherson oblast. The 🇺🇦 forces have been prepping the battlefield in the Kherson region for almost two months now. Destroying not only supply warehouses, but also C&C facilities around the clock. Starting off
29th of august when three targets the city admin, police complex & supply warehouse where hit simultaniously, resulting in the complete destruction of these. The police complex [Geolocation 46.83848, 33.42661] consisted of 3 buildings that were destroyed by a volley of missiles.
At exactly the same time, the municipal complex [Geolocation 46.83662, 33.42513] was hit resulting in the destruction of another 3 buildings, as can be seen the strikes were very accurated because also a building across the street was hit, no collateral damage can be seen.

1/7 🧵 about the air defenses located at Dzankoj military airbase in Crimea. Due to the arrival of Iranian Sahed-136 drones me and other #OSINT researchers were looking at different loc. which could be used to launch these. #Dzankoj airbase was one of the most likely candidates.
2/7 Located about 300 km. from Odessa, it would be well in reach of the drones. However on the airbase it self we found no evidence of it being used to launch these attacks.What did stand out was a large contigent of airdefense units, S-300 & the more modern S-400 launchers.
3/7 While have a closer look, we discovered at least 10 TEL's (transporter erector launcher) at this location, as well as multiple state of the art radar systems connect to those systems. Also a large number of missile canisters can be seen. These are used for quick reloads.

🧵 Since 13 september when UK intelligence reported iranian drones (Shahed-136) were active in Ukraïne since then many attacks occured, at first mainly in the Odessa direction & now all over the country. Because long range and mobility, launch locations would be hard to find
Strong indications were these attacks originated from Crimea, most likely from known mil. sites where they would operate without being spotted by civilians who could report the location to 🇺🇦 intelligence. After checking these sites all over Crimea we found something interesting
At the radar site of Mayak [45.346067, 32.523761] between 9 & 13 sept. 2 distinct white objects appeared. These objects measured 12×2.5 which seemed to match known images of the trailer. Also they seemed te be connected to a smaller object just outside the perimiter of the base.

With 🇺🇦 advancing all over NE Kherson, and steadily closing in on Nova Khakova with the dam over the Dnipro river. Questions arise where could 🇷🇺 retreating forces try to make a stand. We have been monitoring this area and have seen an increase in activity around the dam.
As you can see 🇷🇺 have established a whole ring of defensive works, which they began building end of July. This makes lead to believe that they were allready getting ready for an eventual retreat & defense of the area. As can be seen the at the entrance road to the dam itself.
Just outside Vesele near the gas station on the E58 highway the town on the N side of the dam on the a large trench area can be seen as well as multiple vehicle dugin positions, these pos. are linked to pos. to the easteren side of town. This is probably the last line of defense

Yesterday we got word of 🇺🇦 forces liberating Zolota Balka, right now however we can confirm that they secured the towns of Myroliubivka, Lyubymivka which had been contested since middle of august, also we have visual confirmation that 🇺🇦 troops entered Khreschenivka ⬇️
To do this 🇺🇦 forces had to break the 🇷🇺 defenses @ the T2207 highway around Petrivka. On 31-08 🇺🇦 forces tried to break the line here but failed, but managed to degrade defenses here,IMO this combined with interdicted supply routes let to the failure of 🇷🇺defenses yesterday.
The Zolota Balka def. where located on the hills east of town, with a view of the T0403 highway, harder to approach then the def. at Petrivka, as these were broken, Zolota balka became a pocket for 🇷🇺 forces, the only way out would be under 🇺🇦 fire covering the T-0403.

Last week the 🇺🇦 forces started an unpresedented #HIMARS campaign on the 🇷🇺 supply hub Svatove. In 2 days at least 5 seperate targets where hit in & around Svatove. This town was a supply hub for the Lyman & Kupiansk front.1 strike took out the command of the 144th regiment.
In addition to this strike which was a blow to the combat effectiveness of the 144th regiment, for other supply area's were hit. Two of those were located in Svatove itself the other 2 north & south of town.

One was located on the East side of town at what seems to be a farm complex of some kind.Geolocation of the complex is [49.418245, 38.177272]. As is visible a single hit struck the roof area collapsing it.
