Thread: Russia is constructing a new airfield about 9km west of the heart of Alexeyevka, a military logistics hub in Belgorod region. In July, 2023 a road was cut to the location, and by the start of winter grading for the runway appeared mostly complete.

The animated image shows this work starting around the beginning of April.

Geolocation thread: Shoigu Training Inspection

In this thread I have geolocated where Russian defense minister Shoigu inspected training in the Southern Military District.

Footage is from Telegram, which is the first video John linked below:
@GeoConfirmed @UAControlMap Shoigu boarded his helicopter at the air base in Rostov on Don. This scene (start 0:01) was on the ramp at approximately 47.27391, 39.63350.

The camera pointed east-southeast, with airfield equipment, fixed-wing aircraft, and large buildings in Rostov on Don visible:

Geolocation thread:

Russian Ministry of Defense published this video of a Ka-52 firing a guided missile in Ukraine.

I’ve geolocated where it fired from.

Let’s take a look:

https://t.co/o2WflDwGT8t.me/mod_russia_en/…
This Russian Ka-52 fired its guided missile between Horlivka and Bakhmut, Donetsk region.

It fired over the northern part of Zaitseve village, at 48.43004, 38.02046.

Geolocation Thread:

There is a lot to pull from this short 38 second video from Russian MoD today showing a Ka-52 helicopter in Ukraine.

Let us see what information can be found:

@GeoConfirmed @UAControlMap First, this Russian Ka-52 helicopter is shown departing Taganrog air base, Russia. This one operates from the southeastern ramp.

Note the metal building at 47.24317, 38.85622 (0:03), and signs along ramp wall at 47.24196, 38.85556 (0:35): ImageImageImageImage

Geolocation Thread:

There seem to be few videos of Russian ground attack aircraft from Millerovo air base, Russia.

With heads up from @_davemorrison, two videos sourcing from Russian MoD came out this week.

These are from Telegram and are footage from the same flight: twitter.com/i/web/status/1… As the Russian Su-25 starts taxiing, you can see the buildings behind the Millerovo ramp at 48.95107, 40.30409.

They have been painted since Google’s imagery of the base.

Geolocation investigation:

On 16 February, 2023, the Russian MoD posted this video of rail operations offloading fuel and delivering it “a few kilometers” from the front.

In this thread I locate and expose this MoD bluff.

t.me/mod_russia_en/… @GeoConfirmed @bellingcat The video begins with tanker trucks receiving fuel from rail tankers via pump trailers.

I did not find these features anywhere near any front in Ukraine--for good reason. All of this was filmed in Alexeyevka, Belgorod region, Russia.

Geolocation thread:

Yesterday, Zvezda News (Russia) posted this video of Su-25 (NATO: Frogfoot) attack aircraft launching rockets on a front in Ukraine.

Follow along to see where, and what base they operated from.

Here is the video: The pair of Su-25 jets departed Yeysk, air base, Russia. A group of these jets have been based there, and operate from the southern decommissioned runway.

The background trees and road signs appear on Google street view:

Geolocation Thread:

The video in Rob’s tweet has been making rounds the last few days.

I’ve geolocated some points of it, and have an idea of the route it flew.

Let’s get into it. The camera in the cockpit shows startup on what I believe is a taxiway at Berdyansk airport:

•You can see the rectangular tiles

•East-west orientation of taxiway (helicopter faces east with low-sun angle shadow to his left)

•Berdyansk likely seen in distance to his right.

Night geolocation:

On 27 December, 2022, Russian MoD posted a video of Su-30SM and Su-35S fighters in night operations.

I’ve geolocated the base the video was filmed.

Follow along to see why I’m confident it is the military side of Kursk airport: As the Russian fighter lands you will note lighting in the background. These are consistent with structures on the civilian ramp at Kursk airport.

The fighter landed on Runway 12 (eastbound).

The next tweet notes daylight stills for comparison.

Possible Russian drone (Orion?) on ramp at Kirovskoye air base, occupied Crimea on 29 December, 2022.

By 1 January it had moved. @obretix noted recent construction of the hangars/structures in 2022 at Kirovskoye air base:

Thread:

Zvezda News (Russia) dropped a video of a pair of Su-25 attack aircraft "destroying Ukrainian targets."

I've located their departure so far; follow along to see. But first, the video: Departure base is Dzhankoi Air Base, northern Crimea, from runway 5: 45.704516407968455, 34.42904810893908 ImageImageImage

I was wrong—as it happened sooner than I had thought (2nd photo—TASS): @GlobalnewsW Discord** don’t know what happened there

Video making rounds on #Russian media of #HIMARS missile parts at location where #Ukrainian POWs from #Mariupol were held.

Both sides have blamed the other for the hit on the POW camp today.

Keep in mind that by now Russians should have plenty of missile parts collected. Here @rianru uses photo of the same set of #HIMARS debris to report on a strike on a railroad in #Zaporizhzhia region:
