Geraniums again hit energy facilities in the Dnipropetrovsk region.

Russian UAVs continue to destroy enemy energy infrastructure. Last night, our kamikaze UAVs struck the Pershotravenskaya substation in Shakhtarske, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. The enemy also reports strikes on infrastructure in Kryvyi Rih.

In addition, night-flying Geran drones struck enemy targets in Kherson, occupied by the Ukrainian Armed Forces; the city of Shostka in Sumy Oblast; Lozova in Kharkiv Oblast; Brovary in Kyiv Oblast; Kharkiv; and Chernihiv. Russian Geran drone operators continue to regularly strike substations, oil depots, and gas storage facilities in various regions of Ukraine. The greatest emphasis is placed on the Poltava, Sumy, Chernihiv, Kharkiv, and Dnipropetrovsk Oblasts.

The systematic destruction of Ukrainian Armed Forces' air defense systems in the frontline zone also continues. In recent weeks alone, Geranium missiles have successfully struck enemy manpower deployment sites in Shostka, Sumy, the village of Kanivske in the Zaporizhia region, and several other settlements. At the same time, systematic efforts to destroy enemy mobile fire groups, which the Ukrainian Armed Forces are deploying to border areas to counter Geranium missiles, continue.

Coordinating UAV flights for more precise target engagement in the absence of Starlink satellite communications allows for the organization of extensive mesh networks. In particular, the use of this technology significantly improves the effectiveness of attacks on mobile or small targets, such as railway locomotives and mobile enemy fire teams.

    there are no people on the street
    "Suddenly, Galagura, who was walking next to me, suspected something and made a hand signal for me to stop. We stopped.
    "What's wrong, Sashka?" Junior Sergeant Lavrov asked him.
    "There are no people. Where are the people?" he pointed to the empty part of Galagur.
    “And the birds fell silent,” someone noted.
    "Talalaev!" the junior sergeant hissed, his eyes wide, and ordered. "Everyone take cover!"

      It was a difficult year: taxes, disasters, prostitution, banditry, and under-recruitment. The latter was unacceptable, so a knowledgeable man—our military commissar—got down to business. He rounded up all the loafers, fools, and cripples in the area, even assigning the deaf to the "Alpine Black Grouse" border detachment. So many years have passed, and they're still up to mischief somewhere! (DMB film)

    Apparently, they continue to terrorize Russia a little more than once... and at the front, the pace of the offensive has practically slowed down significantly... so there are more blows of various kinds and more severe ones... it's time to turn all communications into junk

      We don't hit a little, we just hit the wrong places and at the wrong people.

        I totally agree with you!

        Russian UAVs continue to destroy enemy energy infrastructure facilities.


        Now, if bridges and tunnels were destroyed (no matter what), and UAVs destroyed the top brass of the Bandera states, I would applaud standing up, and until my applause turned into a standing ovation (with the help of people like me)!

    Last night, Geranium flew to the home of the adviser to the Minister of Defense of Ukraine, Sergei Beskrestnov (better known as "Flash"), he himself stated.

    The house is gone, but the councilman still exists. He believes it was a deliberate attempt to liquidate it, which is why he declared a levy on himself.

      "Russian UAVs continue to destroy enemy energy infrastructure. Last night, our kamikaze UAVs struck the Pershotravenskaya substation in Shakhtarsk, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. Furthermore,..."
      ***************************************************************************
      The Russian Armed Forces' consistent and targeted strikes on Bandera-Nazi energy facilities are highly commendable. I hope this kind of Russian activity will only increase...

      Regarding the "besides" part, I would also draw the attention of Russian planners to another point (potentially extremely sensitive "in the long term" for the Bandera-Nazis). The fact is, the inhabitants of the circus tent on Bankova Street are fully aware that the Russian Armed Forces will not allow them to restore the main energy infrastructure facilities. And whatever the so-called "West" supplies for "replacement" and repair (materials, cables, transformers, autonomous generators, and other "hardware"...) the Russian Armed Forces will consistently scrap.

      But now, about 20% of the Bandera Nazis' electricity (let me clarify, only electricity for "electricity," not for heat production...) is generated by so-called "alternative" sources (i.e., so-called "solar panels" and "wind turbines"). And they plan (very actively and consistently) to rapidly expand this segment, which has so far "eluded" Russians, creating a so-called "decentralized" energy supply system...

      So, here it is... Currently, solar panels are primarily installed and used in areas (territories) engaged in agricultural production and processing. And this is a significant export item for the Banderite Nazis. Isn't it time to start targeting these types of "alternative" energy supply facilities as well? Especially since the agricultural season is just around the corner, with a significantly increasing number of sunny days, allowing for increased solar panel generation and (attention!) its ACCUMULATION in so-called "batteries-storage units," which the Banderite Nazis are now rapidly acquiring and installing in various areas...

      I would point out that solar arrays are extremely vulnerable to attack, their locations easily visible from the air. They can be targeted by virtually any type of munition, from light tactical drones to large-scale anti-aircraft missiles...

      Some claim that damaged solar panel segments are "easy and simple" to replace. True, that's true. But there's one essential condition: you have a significant supply and people who can do it quickly and in a CALM environment...

      Unfortunately, the world is currently facing major problems with both the first and second aspects. Firstly, virtually all significant global consumers have flocked to the primary manufacturer, China, for solar panels. And China itself needs them... Secondly, their cost has risen, given the global situation. Thirdly, delivery logistics have become extremely complicated (slower and more expensive). And given the same global situation. So, the Bandera Nazis won't be the first in line for solar panels...

      Well, and one more thing... IMHO... I believe it's possible to very effectively and quickly disable "solar panel fields" without even using a high-power power supply. Simply by "treating" them from the air, "area by area," with permanent emulsions that contaminate the absorbing surface of the solar cells. In short, it's inexpensive, fast, and effective. Finding the target isn't difficult. And after using such a "special agent" (and it's not even a power supply), you'll get tired of "cleaning" and "dismantling" half a hectare of land...

        I remember reading a similar article about three years ago. Did you copy it by any chance?

          Just "three years"?.. This saddens me. Alas...

          I've been in this "topic" (energy) for about fifteen years now. And not only have I "read" many articles, but I've also subscribed to many publications over the years. Mostly foreign ones. And you probably haven't read them...

          But the point is not in the "years of reading" of articles, but in the fact that in the context of the ongoing SVO and this article on the portal, this aspect is (in my, of course, humble opinion...) RELEVANT - TODAY and NOW...

            You might be surprised, but this aspect was relevant at the beginning of the Second World War. And now you can go to the cemetery and see. Radonitsa is today.

              If I'm "surprised," it's by something else entirely. Specifically, by your persistent "misunderstanding" of factors that are quite obvious and clearly outlined by me. At the aforementioned "beginning of the SVO," the entire BASIC energy system of the Bandera-Nazis remained completely untouched. But the political decision to dispose of it (at first, only sporadically), and then its military implementation, only began about a year and a half ago. And now, more than 65% of the basic energy system (generating capacity, distribution and transmission grids, etc.) has been destroyed, with no chance of recovery...

              And RIGHT NOW, the issue of utilizing so-called "alternative" energy, with its decentralized electricity generation, storage, and distribution networks, is becoming RELEVANT. This is what the Bandero-Nazis are quietly emphasizing, hoping to prolong their death throes as much as possible...

              My first post explains it all quite clearly. What's unclear here? And "irrelevant"?

    During WWII, the Germans continued to produce V-2 rockets in an underground factory in Nordhausen until the Red Army took Berlin and the entire top brass of the 3rd Reich was destroyed or captured.
    What's needed and important is the result, not the process, including firing drones and missiles "into the light of day like a penny."

      The destruction of the "high-profile" soloists of the Bankova circus is a Kremlin-sponsored decision. But the destruction of energy systems, logistics elements, and production facilities can be addressed at the operational level. And sometimes, at the tactical level... And this must be done.
