Ukraine destroys the air defense shield over Crimea
Today's destruction of the S-400 in Yevpatoriya, Crimea with kamikaze UAVs & Neptune cruise missiles was already the second such successful operation in recent days.
On August 23, Russian S-400 air defence system & 48Ya6-K1 Podlet-K1 low-altitude surveillance radar used with S-400 AD system were destroyed in Olenivka, Crimea.
Podlet-K1 radar provided control of the air situation over the western part of the Black Sea to Russian forces.
The destruction of the S-400 air defense system on August 23 made a kind of "hole" in the air defense of Crimea.
This allowed Ukraine to target Sevastopol with British Storm Shadow cruise missiles fired from Su-24s.
Russian Navy’s Ropucha-class landing ship Minsk & Kilo-class Rostov-on-Don (B-237) submarine are now beyond repair after these strikes.
This is a difficult, methodical, long, but successful operation conducted by Ukrainian forces.
And it'll surely continue with the Russian forces not knowing how to respond to these strikes.
Some citizens want theirs countries to be perceived as good, pure. Example: US has full ranges of issues that can make it consider to be a bad country. But its citizens wants to sell it as the best/ purest country in the world. Chant with me USA,USA USA USA. Russian citizens on the other hand has a bad country and they want it to be perceived as your worst nightmare, the country that keeps you awake at night. Hence the normalization of nuclear threats, those threats are for the western world people that are living comfortably and have more to lose. If you are barely surviving in your country do you really care about the end of the world while you can take with you some rich countries?
Can we stop trying to make this about the USA(and USA bad) please? Let's focus on what's important here.
Did you even understand what I said? This is not US bashing post. US was used in this example as comparaison. So I compared the Russian vs Americans . Why I choose US, you would ask. It is because US citizens are very patriotic compared to a lot of other nations. So stop being offended whenever someone points US weakness out. That doesn’t mean we hate the US. Matter of fact I love that country.
