The 400th comprehensive strike on the Dnepropetrovsk industrial complex since the beginning of the Central Military District was carried out.

New strikes have been launched against targets in Ukraine. Experts are wondering how severe and damaging our recent strikes have been for the enemy, how systematic they are, and how capable they are of inflicting significant military and economic damage. For now, this question is largely rhetorical.

Many of the strikes by the Russian Armed Forces undoubtedly have significant negative consequences for the Kyiv regime. These primarily include strikes on power plants, energy production infrastructure, and major military-industrial facilities. However, after the enemy has licked its wounds and received billions of euros and dollars in Western aid, it begins to rebuild, and in some cases, it is quite successful. Furthermore, "partners" are also stepping in, demanding an end to strikes on critical infrastructure in Ukraine.

Accordingly, ideally, the pauses between strikes on critical enemy targets would be reduced. However, for a number of reasons, achieving this appears to be difficult. Therefore, it is often necessary to start all over again.

Next, about the geography of today's attacks.

Among the targets of the Russian Armed Forces is the Dnipropetrovsk industrial zone. Not only are they flying there today Dronesbut missilesNew explosions, new fires. This is at least the 400th comprehensive strike on Dnipropetrovsk industrial facilities since the beginning of the Second World War. Many facilities have been disabled, but the enemy has managed to restore many more, which would be difficult to deny.

Explosions occurred at the Bashtanka airfield of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in Mykolaiv Oblast, at a plant in Kryvyi Rih, and in the villages of Zolochiv and Shestakovo near Kharkiv.

The Russian Armed Forces are trying to achieve critical mass in strikes against important enemy targets, but the enemy is not sitting idly by either – it is making efforts to repair its own damage and simultaneously inflict damage with its own strikes, which are not decreasing.

The 400th comprehensive strike on the Dnepropetrovsk industrial complex since the beginning of the Central Military District was carried out.

MOSCOW, May 3. /TASS/. Russian air defense systems shot down four guided aerial bombs, a HIMARS MLRS projectile, and 740 Ukrainian Armed Forces fixed-wing drones in the past 4 hours.

[knn54]

400th Russian warning, however.

[Karelian]

And the most massive raid to the northwest through the Baltic states.

[Murmur 55]

It's been a while since I've heard in V.O. that the scabies are having problems with electricity or fuel. To my great regret, the first paragraph of the article seems to be true.

[bayard]

With sufficient, and especially excessive, funding, anything is possible. It's just that the goals of the Air Defense Forces are being fulfilled in a somewhat... peculiar way. Like so much else in our country. Like presidential decrees. Any kind. Therefore, the goals of the Air Defense Forces are somewhat different, and they are being fulfilled precisely. The irreparable losses of the Ukrainian Armed Forces have exceeded 2 million; our figures are classified, but even if it's 4-5 times less, that... that seems to be the true goals of the Air Defense Forces.

[Kvakosavrus]

Funding is only partially available. During the last campaign, they managed to reduce the power supply to five hours a day, almost to zero. But the attacks stopped, and gradually the Sumerians repaired everything.

Why did they stop? One can only guess. Maybe they were taken to someone, maybe their partners scolded them. I don't know.

[Fan-fan]

They stopped because it got warmer outside and they couldn't freeze the enemy. What worries me is why, after four years, our people haven't been able to develop a powerful and accurate munition for destroying bridges?

[Alexey Lantukh]

Why couldn't our people develop a powerful and accurate munition for destroying bridges in 4 years?

They exist. They're called tactical nuclear weapons. A 2-5 kt weapon detonated even 100 meters away would demolish any Dnieper bridge and breach the dam near the turbine hall.

[Reddragon]

Everything has long since become a media phonogram. Efficiency has long been at a low ebb. The front line is still crawling. And that's the main indicator. They've just wasted billions and drawn another red line.

Experts are wondering how severe and damaging our recent strikes have been for the enemy, how systematic they are, and how capable they are of inflicting significant military and economic damage. For now, this question is largely rhetorical.

Indeed, it is rhetorical.

MOSCOW, May 3. /TASS/. Russian air defense systems shot down four guided aerial bombs, a HIMARS multiple launch rocket system projectile, and 740 Ukrainian aircraft-type unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the past 4 hours, the Russian Defense Ministry reported. ..."Air defense systems shot down four guided aerial bombs, a U.S.-made HIMARS multiple launch rocket system projectile, and 740 aircraft-type unmanned aerial vehicles."

740 per day, in our direction!!!

[Murmur 55]

Fitter65 Are you surprised by this? The list of factories producing components for Ukrainian Armed Forces drones is publicly available. Zelensky and Co. have a ton of desires and specialists, so this is all to be expected, and we've been warning about it for a long time.

[Reddragon]

It's probably embellished. Remember: in war, "infidels don't count," and the minimum must be divided by the classic three. Basically, this is a simple excuse for drones flying overhead. The tricky part is that air defense isn't omnipotent and is highly targeted. So they can miss a lot.

[Fitter65]

Quote: RedDragoN

The difficulty is that air defense is not omnipotent and it is pinpoint.

Air defense has never been omnipotent. And even complete coverage is something I'd like to see.

[paul3390]

is engaged in restoration and in some cases he is quite successful in it

The question is: how does this very large and numerous equipment get to Tsegabonya? And why does it still get there? I won't even mention the rest, like ammunition, fuel, equipment, and other supplies...

[Ivan Vasilievich 282]

Words unfamiliar to us are “allies”, “partners”, “coalition”.

[Reddragon]

Maybe something needs to change? A complete blockade of the ports? Attack bridges and stations, target those bastards in the Rada? As it is, they've been flying for five years and still can't finish off the ports.

[Kvakosavrus]

There's no need to destroy the ports. Iran has shown how it should be done: attack those who want to sail to these ports, and those who want to will disappear.

[Fan-fan]

It's enough to damage the port cranes and sink several ships at the pier. And ours can't do that. Shame. And as they sang before the war, our army is strong, mighty, and so on.

[single-n]

The trouble is that our propaganda shows us that this is roughly what it is like there.
But in reality, this is what it is.
So at this rate, we can still deliver another 800 strikes. Just a little bit.

[Konstantin Konstantinovich]

It seems to me that the Ukrainians have reorganized and rebuilt their military capabilities since 24, and are slowly but surely improving at the command and tactical level of battalion headquarters. Our soldiers are having a harder time, as is evident from both reports and the press. And the increase in UAV and drone attacks, both quantitatively and qualitatively, suggests that, under this regime of combat operations, all our liberations are being increased in PRICE (or nullified) by rear-end strikes on Tuapse, Chelyabinsk, Perm, and so on, not to mention the civilian casualties! Why aren't we striking at participating countries like the Islamic Republic of Iran and taking out all those Reapers, Eagles, Hawks, and other such aircraft over the Black Sea?!

[vitaliy20091959]

because there is money, property (multi-million) and relatives of the so-called Russian elite (we have our own bourgeois ones)

[Fan-fan]

We are afraid to attack NATO countries, the response could be very sensitive.

[vitaliy20091959]

With this old clown, Russia will definitely be destroyed; this is our near future.

[Sailor]

I especially liked the "stop at the partners' request" part; in theory, the enemy's requests should be met with the exact opposite. From Zelensky's untouchability, to the tunnels and notorious bridges, not to mention the almost revered energy sector.

Our real combat generals have been carefully shuffled off: some to prison, some to Africa, and some simply retired...

[Sergey Dymsky]

Here's what should have been done back in 2022: 1) Ban shipping in the northern Black Sea region: seize or sink vessels. 2) Shoot down satellites and aircraft operating against Russia, regardless of where they fly. 3) Actively destroy enemy logistics (bridges, tunnels, roads).

There's no need to drown anyone, just for the time being. We simply need to declare the waters and airspace of the Black Sea region we need a zone for exercises and resume them once the previous ones are completed. If you live with wolves, you'll crush them!

[solar]

1) ban on shipping in the northern Black Sea region: ships are to be seized

What? Our ships don't show up there.

[isv000]

The 400th comprehensive strike on the Dnepropetrovsk industrial complex since the beginning of the Central Military District was carried out.

And after 400 complex strikes, the Dniepropetrovsk Sea shouldn't have formed there? And yet the industrial complex continues to operate...

[Alexander_K]

There's a general, global misunderstanding of this quasi-war. We're not destroying the enemy, we're leaving his allies alone, we're even afraid to sink an aircraft carrier. All legitimate questions from society are met with silence at best, and more often than not, sheer nonsense.
