    Simplicius: SITREP 30 Aug 23 - Ukraine Smokescreens Failures With Meaningless Deep-strikes Archived Message

    Posted by sashimi on August 31, 2023, 7:56 am

    More of the same this week: Ukraine has intensified its drone campaign to carry
    out some headline-grabbing strike or terror stunt to manage media perceptions
    and keep themselves looking viable and relevant.

    A new strike on Russia's Kresti airfield near Pskov last night was the latest in
    these efforts, not to mention continual attacks on Bryansk, Donetsk, attempted
    landings on Crimea, and many other such stunts which have no military value
    whatsoever.

    But let's talk about the Pskov strike briefly, as it has generated a lot of the
    usual gnashing of teeth and 'patriot' outrage. The airfield houses Russia's
    Il-76 transport planes. The most up to date report claims upwards of 4 total
    were damaged in the strikes, with 2 of them potentially destroyed, as the
    following videos show:
