In the partially Russian-occupied Kherson region of Ukraine, the car of the district police department chief was blown up

This was reported by the Investigative Committee of Russia's department stationed in the Ukrainian region. The explosion occurred in the morning in the urban-type settlement of Novotroitskoye - an explosive device detonated under the bottom of a car.

It is alleged that the head of the district police department – who is also the owner of the car – received injuries of varying severity and is currently in hospital. A criminal case has been opened under Article 30, Part 3, Article 105, Part 2 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (attempted murder).

It follows from open data that since March 6, 2023, after the seizure of the territory by Russia, the head of the Novotroitskoye OMVD is Serhiy Lyashko. In February 2023, the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs department in the partially occupied Kherson region announced the recruitment of employees in the urban-type settlement of Novotroitskoye.

Today, October 7, two "Daggers" and 32 "Shahedy" shot down air defense forces over Ukraine.

Aeroballistic missiles "Dagger" with a speed on the route of more than 10,000 km/h can destroy, in particular, the MIM-104 Patriot, whose work you can see in the video ⬆️

Together with Novaya Poshta, we are collecting 300 million hryvnias for the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which will help protect those who protect us 🫡

‼️ "Obukhov" choked - another Russian ship was disabled

👉 As a result of the successful operation of the GUR of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, the minesweeper of the Baltic Fleet of the Russian Federation "Aleksandr Obukhov" was disabled.

🛳️ The ship, which was based in the city of Baltiysk and was supposed to go on combat duty, suffered severe damage - due to the mysterious appearance of a hole in the gas pipe, water got into the engine: "Obukhov" choked.

✔️ Now the Russian minesweeper is undergoing major repairs, and this may turn out to be a serious problem - the damaged M-503 engine is a rare thing. Repair of a key installation on a ship is technically difficult and expensive.

❗️ It is interesting that the decommissioned enemy ship very recently, in July of this year, underwent repair work in the city of St. Petersburg.

⚡️ "Obukhov" is already the second neutralized ship of the Baltic Fleet of the Russian Federation in the last six months.

☝️ We will remind you that in April 2024, as a result of the Rybalka operation of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, the missile boat "Serpukhov" was disabled .

Today, the pilots of the special purpose platoon of the BpAK "Amor Fati" of the 15th operational brigade of the NSU "Kara-Dag", with the support of a neighboring unit, conducted an operation on "motivation to surrender"😈.

One of the occupiers, who tried to storm the positions near Selidove, made the right decision - to surrender to our infantrymen.

Although he had little choice. Either capture, or join the "colleagues" who remained forever in that forest strip. 🏔️⚔️

A video has emerged, allegedly taken in the first hours after the nighttime attack on the Feodosia oil depot. ASTRA has verified that the location of the fuel tanks in the video matches their location in satellite images of the depot. According to ASTRA, this is at least the fourth attack on the Feodosia fuel terminal (and the first to cause a major fire).

In Feodosia, the Marine Oil Terminal, the largest terminal in the region in terms of oil product transshipment volumes, continues to burn after being attacked overnight . A state of emergency has been declared in the city — now officially , the city's "head" Tkachenko reported. Crimean Deputy Prime Minister Igor Mikhailichenko has left for Feodosia because of the fire. The republic's Ministry of Transport reported that "for technical reasons" suburban train service on the Feodosia-Vladislavovkaz section has been suspended.

According to officials, there are no victims or injured as a result of the fire at the oil depot. The Crimean "authorities" have not yet reported the causes of the fire, although the Ukrainian Armed Forces have already reported on the successful attack on Feodosia.

UPD: Due to a fire, about 300 people are being evacuated from Feodosia, local “authorities” reported.

Since autumn 2022, the Pantsir-S1 air defense system has been stationed at the oil depot in the port of Feodosia – it did not help repel the attack of Ukrainian drones last night

The Pantsir installed on the podium can be seen both in the video published by the Ukrainian Telegram channel ATESH and in satellite images. The same Pantsirs on podiums (to increase the range of target detection) were previously installed on the territory of the oil depot in Tuapse and near other Russian critical infrastructure facilities. In the Moscow region, they were also placed near Vladimir Putin's residence in Novo-Ogaryovo.

Russian companies have established a barter trade system with Pakistan to facilitate economic exchanges without the need for monetary transactions, as they seek to overcome challenges with payments related to Western sanctions on Moscow.

Under the terms of the agreement, Russia will export 20,000 tons of chickpeas, while Pakistan will supply an equivalent amount of rice. Another contract stipulates that Russia will send 15,000 tons of chickpeas and 10,000 tons of lentils in exchange for 15,000 tons of mandarins and 10,000 tons of potatoes.

While monetary transactions are under increasing scrutiny due to international sanctions against Russia in retaliation for its invasion of Ukraine, barter schemes offer companies a way to circumvent complications by exchanging goods directly rather than involving bank payments. Such deals help avoid attention from monitoring organizations tasked with ensuring compliance with sanctions.

This is not Russia's first exploration of barter trade as a solution to payment issues. In August, Reuters reported that Russia had been in discussions with China about resuming barter trade, particularly in metals and agricultural products. However, that project has been slow to gain momentum, as individual companies have struggled to meet the specific needs of both sides.

Defense forces of Ukraine hit another important object of the Russian invaders

Tonight, a successful attack was made on the enemy's marine oil terminal located in the temporarily occupied Feodosia of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea. A fire was recorded in the vicinity of the facility. The consequences of the damage are being clarified.

The Feodosia terminal is the largest in Crimea in terms of transshipment of petroleum products, which were used, in particular, to meet the needs of the occupation army of the Russian Federation.

The task was carried out by units of the missile forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in cooperation with other components of the Defense Forces of Ukraine.

Measures to undermine the military and economic potential of the Russian Federation continue.

Next will be...

Glory to Ukraine!

I know that Ukraine relies a lot on DJI drones, particularly for reconnaissance, and I am curious if this is a security risk. DJI is headquartered in China, and China and Russia have good relations, so is it possible that Russia makes a request to China that they brick Ukraine's drones, or backdoor them?

So, a brief summary of the night bangs in Crimea

The Belbek and Saki airfields were attacked.

At 11:30 p.m. on October 6, the first explosions were heard, which were clearly audible in the Saksky district, and their echoes were heard in the Simferopol and Krasnogvardeisky districts. In total, subscribers counted up to 12-15 explosions. Bursts of large-caliber weapons were also heard. An hour later, a second series of explosions was heard. According to our source, there was at least one hit in the area of the airfield in Novofedorovka.

An alarm signal sounded in military units in Sevastopol. Around midnight, aircraft were scrambled from the Belbek airfield, subscribers reported. But we assume that they scrambled earlier to avoid being hit. At about one o'clock in the morning a strong fire broke out in the area of the Belbek airfield. Its source is unknown.

RosEmercom declared an air threat throughout the entire territory of occupied Crimea. Z-publics wrote about an attack by Ukrainian UAVs and that, allegedly, the valiant , clumsy RosPVO shot everything down.

Let's wait until the morning, when the smoke clears and the sun rises.

🐴 This is what an FPV drone interceptor for Russian reconnaissance UAVs looks like. It is able to rise to a height of up to 5 km stably, and in some cases - up to 8 km. The video shows how he reached a height of 4083 meters. The drone is equipped with a 6S6P battery with a capacity of 21000mAh, which provides it with a significant flight duration. Test flight.

Another enemy assault - another success of the 60 ombre fighters! FPV drone BBps "Vidarr" accurately aimed at the enemy tank and delivered a devastating blow. The explosion was so powerful that it was probably seen even on the ISS! Another enemy iron monster is destroyed thanks to the skill of our drone operators and the bravery of the defenders. We continue to stand in defense of our land!
