    I don't really care about accusations about Lapin being incompetent, but I'm worried that its true that he threatened mobilized troops with a gun for retreating due to lack of any support. O group also implies the guy has a short temper. Also there are accusations that those mobilized who suffered heavy casaulties, after being threatened by lapin, were left without any orders, and wagnerites who were supposed to command them just started insulting them and calling them traitors.

    BTW if russia shoots down that shitty US global hawk would that actually trigger Article 5? On what grounds would that cause the US to declare war on russia, despite it already being a party to the conflict by using these drones to control ukrainian suicide drones.

    Where were the air and sea drones launched from? Odessa? From one of the "grain" carrying ships?

    They get some submersible toys from the Brits, it was included in the donation lists if I remember.
    The ones destroyed a while ago (one captured) were of Turkish origin.
    It is one big testing ground for everyone, same applies to NASAM and IRIS.
    Nobody sane claims it will turn the tide in any way, they just want to check that for real.
    As for now, this check is not much in favor...

    ◽ The preparation of this terrorist act and the training of military personnel of the Ukrainian 73rd Special Center for Maritime Operations were carried out under the guidance of British specialists located in the city of Ochakov, Nikolaev region of Ukraine.
    ◽ According to available information, representatives of this unit of the British Navy took part in the planning, provision and implementation of a terrorist attack in the Baltic Sea on September 26 of this year. on blowing up the Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 gas pipelines

    We have the Russian mod outright state that the Anglo  Nazis have committed an act of war against  Russia, with regards to todays attack and the pipeline, yet zero response… all this will do is invite more and bigger attacks, as Russia remains passive.. Has anyone in Russia got any fucking balls left when it comes to dealing with the western scum? What is the point of even saying it, if you’re willing to take it up the ass, at least stfu about it

    Terrorist acts against Russia will continue - they can only do so much to prevent it and I'm sure the FSB are doing a great job. The thing is Russia doesn't have to do much as lots of Nazi scum will die this winter anyway and the anti-Russian leadership in the EU will have a hard time justifying their continued support for the [F]Ukrs with skyrocketing energy prices.

    🩸 Today's strike on the Kievskaya 750 substation has had a far greater impact in terms of efficiency than all previous strikes on the Kiev power grid combined.
    ➖ At least one single-phase 750/330kV autotransformer was destroyed. The shields separating the single-phase autotransformers from each other may have protected the other transformers from damage, but the destruction of at least one of the three renders the remaining two useless.

    Targeting the 750Kv subs is a big escalation , if Russia continues on that track Ukraine will be forced to put nuclear power reactors into cold mode ,their network to supply EU with electricity through the 750Kv network will  shutdown permanently .Honestly i thought Russia will use that card only if Ukraine targeted the dam or the bridge again .

    Do you have any links to the things you said about the mobiled troops?

    I don't believe that because high command would have come down hard, if that happened.

    Also Wanger group are also volunteers, I have read before that the leader of the Wanger group said nobody touches the volunteers because they are there on their will.

    I am not accusing you of anything, I would just be very surprised if that happened.

    Elon Musk's Starlink has been hijacked by the US military, it is be used in Ukraine and there talks it will be used in other countries as well.

    What can be done to **** this system? Does Russia or China have the technology to block communications on Starlink, where it becomes useless?

    How would you deal with it?

    They are using pics of the burning tires at the marine training ground as a backup for the "destruction of Bllack Sea Fleet flagman".
    It should already give us a hint about the scale of the next outstanding success.

    It was posted on the official tg account of Rusich. They are nationalists. Closely aligned with Wagner. It is very possible was only bullshit and part of the organized campaign against Lapin. It doesn't matter anymore, as he is dismissed.

    What I meant is that all air targets were taken out, but there is no mention of sea drones being intercepted. So it could be that the sea drones actually penetrated and caused damage.

    Afaik, these sea drones are always hardwired and not autonomous as they don't have enough signal underwater. It should not be difficult to track which ships were close and could have acted as the command center.

    Read somewhere but cannot locate now that 4 were destroyed out at sea, 1 detonated against the antisubmarine net and another damaged (?) the minesweeper while being destroyed... that leaves one and obviously it was accounted for somehow.

    Not true in so many ways.
    1 - commander of the Central MD not the Northern MD
    2 - successful in Syria, liberated Palmaria
    3 - took over command of the Russian forces in Luhansk and Kharkov from the Western MD commander when he faltered. Liberated Severodonetsk / Lysychans'k, Popasna and I believe he was in command of liberating Lyman and possibly Izyum.

    Ukrainians released a video from underwater drones. They have cameras and they are probably remotely guided.
    Maybe admiral Makakrov is hit by ome of them? At least that's how it looks from the video.
