𧡠1/10 From early on in the war Skadovs'k has been a hotspot for π·πΊ officials. For example on 19th of may, this was the spot of an organised tour for western chronies to show how wonderfull live was in the occupied territories. β¬οΈ
2/10 The local governement working for the occupier is located at Alexandrovskaya str. near the local police station. An extensive publication about the collaborators active in Skadosv'k was done by partizans on 13-06-2022 β¬οΈ
3/10After the "goodwill gesture" of leaving the right side of the Dnipro river,the Regional governement of the occupier moved to Skadovs'k and needed an office of their own, so according to local sources they took up residence in resort Slava on the edge on the east side of town
4/10 This holliday camp consists of a hotel complex, wellness centre & dolphinarium,office complex and app. buildings.Since July the youth hostel has been used by π·πΊ forces, they build serveral trenches to protect the entrance to the buildings as can be seen on π° imagery.
5/10 When the fled "officials" arrived from Kherson, they took up office in the northern part of the complex, using the yellow office building as their main office, and using the app. on the N-E side for housing of the collaborators.
6/10 Security also was increased, a large new trench was dug to protect the main office building and 2 checkpoints on the entry ways were setup as can be seen in the imagery. Reports from locals seem to indicate that the welness area is also being used frequently by them.
7/10 Last week there have been HIMARS strikes around the Svadovsk area, so it could not be ruled out that once again they have moved, presumably to Heniches'ka, were also a large number of collaborators have moved to lately.
8/10 If you liked this 𧡠consider donating π° imagery is very costly and takes alot of effort to process and analyze. Your help is much appreciated π
π·πΊ forces on the spit have retreated to a newly created defensive line in the bottleneck of the peninsula half way between Herois'ke & Rybal'che. The defensive line stretches all the way across (4 km) and consists of trenches and vehicle reventments.
The terrain there is very rough(marshlands) and it would be extremly hard for π·πΊ forces to advance and push the πΊπ¦ forces out once they settled there, the only road is under fire control from πΊπ¦ artillery based in the Stanislav & Shyroka Balka area. π·πΊ defensive positions here
Also are in range of the πΊπ¦ artillery. Taking the Spit with a relatively small number of troops (100-200) the whole coastal area between Otsjavik & Yuzhne would be safe once again, and a new line of AD and Coastal defenses could be setup here IMHO.
1/12 Since the announced withdrawal of π·πΊforces, it is time to have an in-depth look into how they want to get their troops & equipment across the river.During the past months have setup an elaborate system of ferry's crossing the Dnipro river. At least 8 ferry's have been active
2/12 These ferry's and multiple barges have been operating continuesly, first there objective was to supply troops on the west-side of the river, since last week that changed, we have seen columns of vehicles move the other direction.
3/12 In the kherson city area, there were 3 main ferry points, one is located near the Antonovskyyi railbridge near Pridniprovsky, near the ferry loading site, mil. vehicles could be seen waiting the last couple of days. a bit further away π·πΊ established a rallypoint.
Serveral media have been reporting about a base or unit launching Shahed-136 drones at Ukraine being destroyed in the town of Herois'ke.I believe this to be partly true.I do believe a drone unit, connected to the π·πΊ forces was operating from this area
This unit which i believe was connected to the VDV has been operating from this area since mid July. In a 𧡠i wrote on 2 aug. i tried to determine, where Lancet-3 strikes which were picking up at that time most likely originated from.
I determined at that the time the most likely place was the area around Stanislav or the area around Herois'ke.This unit was using Lancet-3 drones and Orlan-10 & Orlan-30 drones to do surveillance and guidance for the attack drones. More info came to attention about this unit
On 7 september info was released by UA forces, they hit an area, were π·πΊ forces were trying to setup an alternative crossing of the Dnipro river, apperantly they hit it while barges loaded with equipment where about to set sail.
Supposedly on board, a contingent of a specialized unit with serveral Lancet-3 drones and a control vehicle.(un-confirmed). We managed to locate the site to [46.539600,32.520224]. As you can see in the animation β¬οΈ 2 barges and a small warehouse were destroyed there.
Proof that this was the attack of 6-09 can be found in low res. planet π° images β¬οΈ. Thanks to @bradyafr for the nice animation!
1/12 Update 𧡠about the suspected drone launch site in Mayak, Crimea.Two weeks ago i published an article about Mayak radar station in which research & sat. images showed Mayak radar station in Crimea was the most likely source of drone attacks on Odessa
2/12 in this 𧡠further evidence was found to support the claim of this being the launch point of the Shahed-136 drones, further information (#OSINT & #HUMINT) revealed that Iranian instructors/operators are also present at Dzankoj airport (read 𧡠β¬οΈ)
3/12 We were able to obtain new high res. π° imagery(30 cm) from the Mayak site, which indefinitly proves the presence of the launchers there. It also shows the kind of setup they will probably use when they know they are out of reach of UA forces and under the umbrella of π·πΊ AD
A little π§΅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.
