CC i agree those semi submersibles are very effective but they are quite technical
another one on the Kerch bridge to finish off the road crossing would be awesome but it has stopped trucks anyway so the job is done.
being able to block cars and the soldiers familiys from moving over the bridge would be a good psychological blow
but an expensive one.
targeting the docks might be useful to hamper their repair efforts on damaged ships
if they cant dock their ships they cant re supply them



Russia says it has finished its mobilization

i expect they will continue to conscript prisoners & use them as cannon fodder for wagner

What the Israeli 'independent source' failed to mention was that Iron Dome is largely if not entirely owing to as usual US freely gifted technology.
And that it's purported 95% success rate is against crude Palestinian 'bottle rockets'. Similar success rate against Russian missiles? Very doubtful.
But as expected, it's a case of one Ukrainian member of The Tribe, put in power by other members in the US, pleading with others based in The Jewish State.

would be awesome if usa or uk had an orbital laser cannon that could target one of irans ballistic missiles as its loading on to the airplane  

i hope israel bombs more of the drone factorys to make sure they cant re build them.
if iran attack saudi arabia it will green light retaliation where saudi arabia can target the iranian drones & ballistic missiles

i think its far better for Ukraine to concede ground to let the Orcs advance into Ukrainian artillery range and get smashed
allowing Ukrainian concentrated fire to come down on advancing orcs.
good way to pick off orc armored vehicles
let them advance into a kill zone
i wonder what the black ribbon across right bottom corner of putzlers TV means
i wonder if its some type of secret message to undercover russian agents living abroad

Here's a follow-up thread to GeoConfirmed drone boat thread.

They still think that three ships were hit.

One of them was at anchor in Sevastopol harbor when it was hit. That ship remains unidentified and it isn't known what happened to it.

One of the other two ships was a Project 266M/natya class minesweeper the 'Ivan Golubets'. It was underway just outside the harbor mouth when it was hit in the stern. It seems to have made its way back into port under its own power and was later seen tied up in port. So the Russian claims that it only suffered minor damage seems to have been accurate.

The other ship may or may not have been the Admiral Makarov. The difficulty there is that photographs have appeared from the days before the drone boat attack showing two frigates of that same Admiral Grigorovich class in Sevastopol harbor. Whichever one was hit appears to have been moving in the open sea outside the harbor when it was hit on its starboard side. This ship was also able to make its way back to port under its own power where it appears to have undergone inspections and is now tied up back at its usual mooring. So this ship doesn't appear to have been seriously damaged either.

So both the Ivan Golubets and Admiral Makarov(?) have been photographed after the attack and neither was sunk.

But the fact remains that the Ukrainians were able to launch a surprise attack inside one of the Russian navy's most secure harbors. We can be sure that the Russians are belatedly taking measures to ensure it doesn't happen again.
