Looks like the Russians finished creating a barge bridge over the #Dnipro near #Kherson in the past 24 hours. Imagery from Oct 18 show a barge pushing the last parts into place at 0814 UTC. This allows Russia to resupply faster or to evacuate quickly. It's also an easy target.🤔 @GeoConfirmed Barge bridge complete at #Kherson on 18 October. Last barge being placed at 46.6658 32.7206.

Since Aug, 70km of a natural gas pipeline was laid between #Melitopol and Marynivka, #Zaporizhia Oblast, #Ukraine. This will likely connect to #Berdyansk. Melitopol has been without gas for months. The connection could be complete within the next few weeks. @GeoConfirmed A KML version of the pipeline trace can be downloaded here for import into your favorite mapping tools. This was created based on satellite imagery from August and September 2022. drive.proton.me/urls/TES5W9RE8…

The occupation government in #Luhansk, #Ukraine is pushing people to a telegram channel to get info about the referendum. Good #OSINT feed? t.me/budem_zhit 🤔

Situation around #antonovskiybridge in #Kherson hasn't changed. Sep 15 images show the ferries in use nearby, and empty barges. But... 🧵 1/ Looking back at radar and optical imagery since Sep 6 we can see many boats, some confirmed as pontoon ferries, operating east of the rail bridge near #Kherson. Here's a map with the locations plotted on different dates. Where does the ferry land? 🤔2/

Looking at imagery over #Kherson for 31 Aug we can see more Russian military vehicle movement than ever before. In this first image, we can see ~20 vehicles on the pontoon ferries transiting in each direction near 32.8035 46.6614.🧵 1/ 11x Russian military vehicles waiting at 46.6442 32.8161 to move up the queue towards the military ferry across the #Dnipro 2/

Major movement of Russian equipment identified in 25 August 2022 imagery near #Kherson crossing the #Dnipro river. About 100 military vehicles seen moving in imagery, mostly northwards toward Kherson, at 08:48 UTC (11:48 Kyiv time) on 25 August. 1/ At the edge of the image, we can see a convoy of at least 40 military vehicles waiting to move northward near the intersection at 46.6439 32.8159. 2/

After reviewing satellite photos from the past few weeks, I think @secretsqrl123 was right when he highlighted this location as the possible southern ferry point for the Russian military across the #Dnipro river. 1/

Imagery from 7 and 24 August show military vehicles near 46.660 32.804. Images from this month show military vehicles traveling along this dead-end road. This is likely the southern pontoon point for Russian military vehicles on the #Dnipro near #Kherson. 2/

Imagery from 7 August confirms that there are at least *4* pontoon ferries active around Kherson in the #Dnipro and Konka rivers. All four were visible at the same time today. Some context. 🧵1/ Sentinel-2 imagery from 7 August over Kherson was clear and showed all four pontoons in different locations at the same time. 2 were in use at the #AntonovskiyBridge, as expected, and two more were hiding in the Konka river, as discussed previously. 2/

The possible pontoon loading area (46.631 32.756) near #Oleshky #Kherson (spotted by @DefMon3 & @OAlexanderDK) was empty during a satellite pass on Thursday. However, one small craft was captured moving up the #Konka river at 46.6378 32.7684. It's a busy place. Read on... 1/ Looking along the #Konka for the past week, I think there was another pontoon hidden to the east of the launch point in the marsh on 2022-08-02 at 46.6362 32.7709. It's SPOT imagery, so it's not super sharp, but it looks like a pontoon measuring about 60x12m and small boat. 2/

Imagery from 1 August shows a Russian military ferry delivering 7 military vehicles near the rail bridge 5+ km upstream (46.6761 32.7902) of the known crossing point by the #AntonovskiyBridge by #Kherson. 3 vehicles appear ready to cross the other direction. 1/ Why are they moving military vehicles *here* instead of at the easier crossing point? What's the landing point on the south side of the river? There's no road directly across this point to support vehicles. 2/

Update on #Darivka. @OAlexanderDK noticed that much of the imagery showed vehicles on or near the damaged bridge. It appears that small civilian vehicles have been using the bridge, despite the damage, while larger vehicles are using the pontoon bridge. 1/ Additionally, while comparing 27 and 30 June imagery we discovered a possible Russian military post located in a building in the village, based on visiting military vehicles and a tent set up behind the building at 46.7468, 32.8034 in #Darivka.

On 23 July, Ukrainian forces struck the Daryivskyi bridge across the Ingulets river at #Daryivka, #Ukraine. Videos showed a pontoon bridge/barge providing an alternate crossing, with foliage used to camouflage the barge. 1/
