I only state ad verbum what the Russian MOD is saying... don't shoot the messenger. Up to the reader to believe want they want. If you think it is inaccurate and you find it disturbing, you could give your feedback or ask for clarification from the Russians.

The Western press decided to pay attention to the pace of Russian military products and came to an unequivocal conclusion: the Russian defense industry is working even despite all the sanctions, and production has doubled compared to the pre-war level.

Business Insider cited an official from the Bureau of Industry and Security of the US Department of Commerce. He said that despite all the limited measures, the Russian authorities are becoming more and more inventive in matters of re-export and the supply of sanctioned products.

At the same time, The New York Times quoted a senior official of the Estonian Ministry of Defense as saying that now the production of ammunition in Russia is seven times higher than in the United States and the EU. The newspaper also claims that now the RF Armed Forces can receive 200 new tanks per year.

📌 Judging by these publications, in the West, apparently, they still do not know the real figures for the output of the Russian military industry. So the true figures will clearly come as a surprise to NATO countries.

And the reason for such abrupt transformations is simple: for a year and a half, they talked about missiles and non-working factories that Russia had run out. But when confronted with objective reality, it eventually became clear that the initial forecasts were too much influenced by ideological attitudes.

The main thing in this situation is not to repeat the same mistakes and not to build the whole strategy with the expectation that the enemy and his sponsors are about to run out of 155-mm ammunition, tanks and guns.

How Ukraine Plans to DESTROY the Russian Fleet in Crimea

Crimea is Under Siege. Ukraine has been ramping up strikes against the Russian Black Sea fleet deployed there. The latest attack involved 10 Storm Shadow cruise missiles with hit the "Minsk" landing ship as well as the "Rostov-on-Don" submarine, followed by the destruction of a S-300 missile launcher. Ukrainian operatives also captured the Boyko Towers oil rig, whose location is strategic. From Odessa, Ukraine has been on the offensive all throughout the summer using a combination of UAVs, unmanned naval drones, amphibious raids to bring Russian air defense to a breaking point, in order to open a path for Ukrainian cruise missiles.

Missed out on Kherson update...



Kherson direction
Situation as of 18.00 on September 14, 2023

🔻 The Armed Forces of Ukraine continue to gain a foothold in positions on the left bank of the Dnieper for further attacks in the rear of the Russian group. Over the past day, the enemy made several attempts to rotate personnel at observation posts in different areas.

▪️On Aleshkinsky Island, last night on a boat of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, they tried to throw a DRG to replace the 126th Brigade of the Territorial Defense Forces, but it was destroyed by Russian artillery. Two more groups went south along the Ingulets River, but were forced to turn around and go back.

▪️Two more boats with groups of six people from Poniatovka and Sadovyi intended to land west of the Cossack Camps, but one boat was successfully hit at Daryivka, and the second went upstream of the Inhulets.

Coordinates: 46.742168825227395, 32.810282100769754

🔻 To the east, on Kozatsky Island, the DRG once again landed on one boat under the cover of mortar fire. At the same time, Russian troops shot down one watercraft near Olhivka, and also destroyed a mortar.

The situation in the island zone remains the same: the Armed Forces of Ukraine land on the left bank, but so far without attempts to advance inland. This is facilitated by regular strikes by Russian troops either on boats or enemy strongholds, which does not allow Ukrainian formations to establish supplies on the opposite side.
