Operators of one of the units of the SSO, while conducting reconnaissance in the Zaporizhzhia direction, discovered two enemy strongholds, the destruction of which was necessary to improve the tactical situation.
Fire damage was inflicted on enemy targets by impact anti-aircraft guns. As a result of accurate work, the strongholds along with heavy equipment and personnel of the enemy were completely destroyed.
Finally, to once again remind the occupiers that this is Ukrainian land and they are here for a short time, the operators, using a drone, installed a blue-yellow flag on the site of the destroyed enemy strongholds (how exactly - see the video).
Operators of one of the units of the SSO during night reconnaissance discovered a Russian BMP on the left bank of the Kherson region, which went hunting for Ukrainian BpAK crews.
Fire damage was promptly inflicted on the enemy target by strike drones. As a result, the enemy's BMP was completely destroyed, and the Ukrainian pilots continued their work to destroy the occupiers on the left bank of the Dnieper.
During night surveillance in the Kherson direction, snipers of the 73rd Marine Center of the SSO discovered a group of the enemy.
Fire was opened on the group, as a result of which three enemy servicemen were destroyed.
Our operators conduct constant surveillance in their area of responsibility and destroy all targets that fall into their sights.

For more than a year, Russia has been using Iranian development - Shahed-136 drones in the war against Ukraine. Air defense forces of Ukraine say that it is possible to deal with this type of barrage munition, but Ukrainian inventors are still looking for a guaranteed means of destroying Shahed, because the Russian army is constantly trying to improve the deadly drone.

Day 707: Jan 31
Today, there is a lot of news from the south.
Several hours ago, Ukrainian forces conducted a concentrated missile strike on Crimea. The Russian Ministry of Defense stated that Ukrainian aviation launched 20 missiles in the direction of Sevastopol and claimed that all of them were intercepted. Local residents, however, reported hearing 6 explosions in the northern part of Sevastopol. Judging by the footage, the target of the missile strike became the Russian airbase. Some sources claimed that apart from the airfield itself, at least one missile hit the underground headquarters, similar to what we saw near Mariupol last year.
Today’s missile strike should not have been a surprise because yesterday, Ukrainians conducted a successful drone strike. The drone strike focused on the western part of Crimea, and according to Russian sources, 11 drones were detected near Rozdolne, Tarkhankut, and Sevastopol. Most of the drones were operating near Rozdolne, which is exactly where Ukrainians managed to destroy a Russian air defense system radar station. The destruction of the radar undermined air defense in this region and opened a window for today’s missile strike.
And these latest developments serve as a direct extension of the much broader Ukrainian strike campaign in Crimea, which reached its peak intensity in the previous several weeks. In fact, connecting all these strikes together reveals an unbelievable scale and far-reaching implications of the operations because Ukrainians are not just aiming to destroy whatever equipment they can but rather exploit and exacerbate systematic weaknesses of the Russian military.
The first stage of the operation happened in the first half of January when Ukrainians focused their fire on the remnants of the Russian Black Sea Fleet in Sevastopol. As you remember, Russians have already relocated much of it to Novorossiysk, causing the evolution of the Ukrainian goals. Nonetheless, Ukrainians did not want to reveal their new goals and designed the operation to make it seem like they were still chasing the Russian fleet. The strikes involved a lot of marine and aerial drones. Ukrainians even put to use the newest marine drones that were equipped with missiles and could damage Russian ships from afar. Interestingly, Ukrainian partisans from the Atesh Group recently revealed that one of the smaller ships sank in the bay, possibly due to this strike. Such development served as a great distraction, forcing Russians to focus on protecting the ships. Ukrainians reinforced this decision by launching anti-ship missiles from Odessa.
In the meantime, Ukrainians detected that some of the drones managed to get very close to Saky without being shot down, signaling that there was a weakness. Ukrainians immediately followed up with a comprehensive missile strike involving Storm Shadow and SCALP missiles, as well as various anti-radar and decoy rockets and drones. Based on the satellite footage, Ukrainians managed to destroy a Russian command post near Sevastopol, ammunition warehouses near Pervomaiske, and most importantly, an air defense radar system and a communications center in Yevpatoria responsible for coordinating Russian air defense operations. Russian analysts concluded that the real goal all along was degrading the Russian air defense umbrella.
And this was correct because the destruction of the radars and communication centers created a massive hole in the Russian airspace, which Ukrainians immediately started to take advantage of. In a matter of weeks, Ukrainian strikes started reaching not only eastern Crimea but also Tuapse, Krasnodar, and Rostov.
In order to plug the hole, Russia began constant sorties of A-50 long-range radar detection aircraft. Moreover, Russian commanders ordered to fly closer to the northern shore of Azov to cover possible strikes from the north. Ukrainians noticed that the aircraft usually reached Berdyansk and relocated the Patriot system to launch a hunt on it. As you know, the hunt was successful, and apart from destroying an extremely rare A-50, of which Russians have less than 10, Ukrainians also severely damaged an Il-22 airborne command post aircraft.
This temporarily created an even bigger hole in the sky, and Ukrainians immediately launched a series of missile and drone strikes. The targets became a chemical plant in Rostov, a massive oil refinery in Tuapse, and a speed boat factory near the same city.
On the night of January 31 to February 1, 2024, soldiers of the special unit "Group 13" of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine destroyed the missile boat "Ivanovets" of the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Federation.
SSO operators continue to perform tasks in all operational directions and inflict significant losses on the enemy.
Soldiers of the 73rd Naval Center of the SSO during aerial reconnaissance in the Southern direction discovered two enemy BM-21 "Grad" salvo fire systems.
Our operators adjusted the HIMASR fire of the missile and artillery unit of the Defense Forces on the targets. As a result of fire damage, both "Grades" were destroyed.
"Ivanovets" at the bottom - an enemy missile boat was destroyed as a result of a special operation of the GUR of the Ministry of Defense
Multiple Ukrainian marine drones are seen hitting the Project 12411 Tarantul-class missile corvette Ivanovets at Lake Donuzlav, Crimea. At least three, likely more Sea Baby drones struck the vessel. This is the latest over a number of Black Sea Losses thanks to Ukraine. This ship likely was engaged with patrolling the coast of north Crimea.

Pure Anger is a project of the "Come Back Alive" Foundation for 100 snipers from various units of the Defense Forces of Ukraine.
This is a set of equipment, and of course a sniper rifle and ammunition for it. The whole set will allow the sniper to shoot at a distance of more than 2000 meters.
Departure at dusk, return - also at dusk. 12 hours of work in the frost at -15 degrees. Work - under Bakhmut.
The soldiers of the 93rd brigade from the black raven attack UAV company go to work at dusk for a reason. As they work with their strike drones not only against the infantry of the enemy, which is storming the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine near Bohdanivka, but also in the rear, where there are vehicles and equipment, the enemy also hunts for pickups of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Drones have changed the war so much in recent months that all logistics through them take place only at night.
For the "Slidstva.Info" team, it's the same - getting up at 2 in the morning, and the same 12 hours in the cold to see what war is like in such weather. The result is one dilapidated house, in which there was a mobile station of the Russians, and one found Russian "beha".
The coordinator of the Gleb UAV training department and the military consultant of the Rico UAV department of the "Return Alive" Foundation spoke about the new joint project of the Foundation with the OKKO company for companies of unmanned aerial systems (RUBAK) of the Russian Armed Forces. And this is already "EYE FOR AN EYE 3".

About the importance of protecting your hearing. The video examines different types of active headphones and their interaction with helmets. At the end, a little quality tests of microphones.
Models that were on the test
Walkers XCEL-100 - not suitable for use with eared or earless helmets. Only in the shooting range.
Walkers X-trm with silicone ear pads. They were attached to the earless helmet, a good budget option.
Walkers Firemax - I like everything, with the occipital arch mounts, but unfortunately too thick for a helmet with ears.
Walkers Razor - a Chinese copy from alic. For those who care more about money than health. You can go to the shooting range, but I would think twice about going to war. After all, such ears are much better than none.
MSA Sordin Supreme Pro X - A very good option for a helmet with ears. The quality of execution is pleasing, which I cannot say about the price. But in the end, health is more expensive.

The full-scale war has been going on for almost two years now, the counteroffensive has not gone as planned, and the morale of the military has dropped significantly, but since they have no other choice, they continue to face the enemy. In this video, we drove around the entire front line of Donetsk and Luhansk regions and visited 4 units to show how the Ukrainian military lives and works. As one of the commanders said, "There is no such thing as bad weather for the military, nothing stops the war, neither rain, nor snow, nor day, nor night." This war will continue. This video documents one of the most difficult pages of the modern history of Ukraine and its tireless struggle for independence.
In addition to the previous video of the destruction of the ROV column. In this video you will see the destruction of the column through the eyes of our pilot working in that direction.

Day 709: Feb 02
Today, there are a lot of updates about the battle near Vuhledar.
But first of all, more information became available about the combined strike on Crimea. Russian sources reported that Ukrainians tricked the Russian air defense system by first launching decoy rockets. Once the Russian air defense started shooting them down and revealed their positions, Ukrainians launched anti-radar HARM rockets. These rockets are designed to pick up signals from working radars and destroy them, so Russians basically had to either switch the radars off or take a risk and try to intercept these rockets before they destroy the radars. For Ukrainians, it did not matter what Russians decided to do – the air defense was busy, creating a perfect opportunity to launch Storm Shadow missiles. Ukrainian Air Force Spokesman stated that based on the eulogies of Russian soldiers and other reports, at least 3 aircraft and 2 facilities with personnel were destroyed, including Russian general Oleksandr Tatarenko. Moreover, Ukrainians conducted a simultaneous marine drone strike on the Russian Fleet. As a result, 3 drones successfully hit a Russian missile carrier, which promptly went to the bottom of the sea. Such a massive and successful combined strike caused huge discontent in the Russian media space. Russian analysts criticized the overpraised S-400 air defense systems that were supposed to create an iron dome above Crimea and the continuous failure to protect the radars as well as military objects.
Another point of concern for the Russian analysts became the disastrous Russian offensive operation near Vuhledar. Vuhledar became notorious a long time ago because multiple Russian brigades were completely annihilated here, achieving zero territorial gains. In the most recent offensive operation, Russian forces tried to implement a new plan and bypass Vuhledar from the north. In order to achieve this goal, the main target became Novomykhailivka.
The operation started from demining the fields and attacking Ukrainian strongpoints around the settlement. At first, Russian forces managed to achieve some success on the southern flank, and the main reason for such a big jump was the lack of strongpoints. As you can see, there is a small river going through the settlements, creating several lines of swamps between the fields. Ukrainians had a series of small unit-size defenses in the tree lines, however, the main defense belt was located right in front of the village – more precisely, 2 farms, a cemetery, and main road intersections.
By leveraging 3 settlements under their control, Russian forces were launching one mechanized attack after another from all sides, forcing Ukrainians to withdraw to the main defense belt. Russian sources reported that the battle for Novomykhailivka had started as Russians reached the outskirts. Since Russian forces on the northern flank were substantially lagging behind, the only way to collapse Ukrainian defense was by penetrating the settlement from the south and cutting off supplies. Geolocated footage showed that Russians managed to take control of several strongpoints and get a foothold, and started preparing to storm the settlement.
Despite devastating shelling and the use of heavy thermobaric systems, Russians failed to undermine the Ukrainian defense, and Russian forces on the outskirts were slowly killed. Once the garrison was liquidated, Ukrainian fighters from the 79th Airmobile Brigade conducted a powerful second wave of counterattacks and pushed the front line back by more than 2 kilometers, forcing Russians to start the whole operation from scratch.
The only positions that Russians managed to maintain were south of the swamp. Russian forces decided to leverage the natural obstacle in the form of the swamp as a shield against possible Ukrainian flank attacks and expand westward. Russians created a powerful assault unit consisting of 4 tanks, 10 armored fighting vehicles, and around 150 soldiers and launched an attack. Unfortunately for Russians, Ukrainians ambushed the column with drones.
Geolocated footage shows that Russian forces sustained about a company’s worth of heavy armored vehicle losses during assaults in the area. The Ukrainian General Staff reported that only in this attack Russian forces lost 2 tanks and 7 armored fighting vehicles.
Latest military technologies and weaponry are being utilized in the war in Ukraine. Ukrainians themselves have already proven to be outstanding warriors. But what does the work of the world's best military professionals look like on the inside? See in the ‘Profession: Warrior’ project. Today, our hero is the commander of one of Ukraine's most modern tanks—Leopard 2A6.
Join us on a report from the Zero Line with the infantry of the 1st Presidential Brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine. Here, just 150 meters from the enemy, in the freezing cold, soldiers are holding their positions, making sure the enemy doesn’t have a chance to dig in.
During the Battle of Bakhmut, CASEVAC operations were performed by Med Team Alpha of the 1st Squadron of the International Legion. This video showcases one of these operations.
Apparently, many subscribers of the channel remember Elena Ryzh and her actions during the assault of Russian troops on our positions near Avdiivka. Today we offer a long and in-depth interview with the attack aircraft of Oleg Sentsov's group of the 47th OMBr
