✈️ Statistics of visual observation of the use of FPV drones for strikes in August

📈 In August, the use of FPV drones went strongly in our favor. In fact, the number of strikes doubled (by 100%), while the katsaps increased by 21%. Of course, we can't record everything, but in our team's opinion, the real correlation won't differ much from this one.

ℹ️ It is worth understanding that this statistic more likely reflects the approximate correlation of FPV drone strikes rather than their use on the front. It is impossible to estimate the number of actual uses, as there is no statistics: neither from us nor from the f***ers.

Situation on the frontlines as of the end of the day on September 1, 2023

▶️ On the Belarusian, Siverskyi and Bilhorod directions — no changes. The enemy has intensified shelling of the northern part of the Kharkiv region.

▶️ On the Svatove direction — the hottest spot remains near Novoiehorivka. The Defense Forces destroyed six tanks there. Despite this, the katsaps continue to press there, bring up equipment, and introduce fresh units of convicts-shoiguists. In recent weeks, enemy artillery has been activated in the Serebryansk forestry.

▶️ On the Bakhmut direction — combat operations continue in the area of Klishchiivka and Andriivka.

▶️ On the Avdiivka direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Berdiansk direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Zaporizhzhia direction — fighting continues near Novoprokopivka.

▶️ On the Tavria direction — no changes.

🗂 Analytical note. It is important that the pace of advancement on the Melitopol direction has significantly increased compared to the first months of the offensive. Everything will depend on the development of events near Verbove and Novoprokopivka in the near future. Near Robotyne, the first paratroopers from the 104th regiment of the 76th airborne assault division are already being captured. The 234th and 237th regiments have either already arrived in the combat zone or are still moving from Kreminna. The withdrawal of units from Kreminna indicates the enemy's problems with reserves, which he is trying to solve in this way.

🇭🇺🤡"The Western world, which supports Ukraine, must provide security guarantees to Russia, but by no means NATO membership to Ukrainians," - Head of the Hungarian Prime Minister's Office Gergely Gulyás

🤦‍♂️The Head of the Prime Minister's Office stated that there are no real chances for Ukraine to regain occupied territories and that "it is also clear that russia is not a threat to Central Europe since russians have not achieved rapid and breakthrough results in the last one and a half years", and Ukrainians did not receive armed assistance from anyone at the initial stage. Gulyás added that no negotiations will take place without the participation of the Americans.

🤕Gergely believes that the only possibility for long-term peace in Ukraine is the deployment of peacekeeping forces and providing security guarantees to Muscovy.

🇸🇪Specifically, the head of the office commented on the ratification of Sweden's accession to NATO:

💭"Sweden's accession has not yet been ratified due to unfair and unfounded accusations that Swedes have made against our country in recent years...".

🇷🇺 The ministry of attack of muscovy is taking over the power of wagner in Africa

🌍A delegation tour of African countries is ongoing. Yesterday, colonel-general yunus-bek bamatgireyevich yevkurov arrived in 🇲🇱Mali. Before that, he had already visited 🇱🇾Libya, 🇸🇾Syria, 🇨🇫CAR and 🇧🇫Burkina Faso. In all these countries, mercenaries of prigozhin previously had significant power.

🤐Specific details of the visits are not disclosed, but we can see the ongoing process of changing influences and a crazy orientation of russia towards the African continent. Interestingly, will they only take, as usual, or also bring and support aid with the same water, as Western partners constantly do?

🇺🇦 Tomorrow, the government is expecting changes - a new candidate for the post of Minister of Defense will be proposed

⚜️In his evening address, Volodymyr Zelenskyy highlighted this issue, announcing that a new candidate, Rustem Umerov, will be presented to the Parliament.

💬"I have decided to replace the Minister of Defense of Ukraine. Oleksiy Reznikov has been through more than 550 days of full-scale war. I believe that the Ministry needs new approaches and different formats of interaction with both the military and society as a whole. Rustem Umerov is now supposed to head the Ministry. The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine knows this person well, and Mr. Umerov does not need additional introductions. I expect the Parliament to support this candidate," the President's post states.

🤝From us, we want to thank Oleksii Reznikov for the work done in the field of defense, especially on the international stage. Practice shows that history remembers people's achievements after their peak. Often the headlines in the media prevail. We know a little more, and we are confident that time will show the other sides of the coin, and maybe Oleksii Yuriyovych will write a book about it, and his diplomacy will be useful to many. Thank you.

🫡We wish strength to the new head. Let's work.

Situation on the frontlines as of the end of the day on September 3, 2023

▶️ On the Belarusian, Siverskyi and Bilhorod directions — no changes.

▶️ On the Svatove direction — Novoiehorivka continues to be the hottest spot in the entire JFO area. The katsaps were fought off at height 190.8, forcing them to retreat eastward. However, this is far from over, so we are closely monitoring the situation.

▶️ On the Bakhmut direction — the enemy retreat in Klishchiivka continues. Near Andriivka, especially to the south, fierce battles took place.

▶️ On the Avdiivka direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Berdiansk direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Zaporizhzhia direction — battles continue south of Robotyne, northeast of Novoprokopivka, and west of Verbove.

▶️ On the Tavria direction — no changes.

🗂 Analytical note. Despite all the reserves that the enemy introduced into the 4 main areas of the Svatove direction, they failed to achieve results. Moreover, some units have already gone to Tokmak. The katsaps continue to adhere to the practice of using convicts-shoiguists. The latter are present in almost all directions. Near Novoprokopivka, the advance is slow but ongoing. The next weeks may be crucial for our campaign in Zaporizhzhia.

🇺🇦🇷🇴Ukraine's Ministry of Foreign Affairs reported a "shahed" falling on Romanian territory during a night attack

😎 "According to the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine, tonight, during a massive attack by russia in the Izmail port area, russian 'shahids' fell and detonated on the territory of Romania. This is another confirmation that russian missile terror poses a huge threat not only to the security of Ukraine but also to the security of neighboring countries, including NATO member states," said MFA spokesperson Oleg Nikolenko.

🗣The spokesperson called on partners to expedite the provision of additional modern anti-missile and anti-aircraft defense systems to Ukraine, as well as combat aircraft, which will strengthen the defense of Ukraine's infrastructure and adjacent states.

🤦‍♂️For its part, the Ministry of Defence of Romania once again stated yesterday that the strikes inflicted by russia do not threaten the national security of the country:

😎 "The responsible structures of the Ministry of Defence are monitoring the situation in real-time, which arose as a result of yesterday's attacks by russian drones on the infrastructure of the Reni port. At no time did the means of attack used by the russian federation pose a direct military threat to the national territory or territorial waters of Romania."

UPD. The ministry has refuted yesterday's attack:

💭"The Ministry of National Defense categorically refutes the information in the public domain regarding the so-called situation that occurred on the night of September 3 to 4 when russian drones allegedly fell on the national territory of Romania."

🇺🇳UN does not have sufficient evidence to recognize genocide in Ukraine

🗣«At the moment, we do not have sufficient available evidence that would meet the legal qualifications provided by the Genocide Convention.» - Head of the UN International Commission of Inquiry on the violations in Ukraine, Erik Møse, during a press conference in Kyiv.

🤦‍♂️«We are well aware of the concerns and accusations about this crime. That is why we are investigating this step by step <...> You remember that this is a matter of intent, the intent of the perpetrators. There must be a "need" to destroy a certain group. And such destruction, according to the Convention, must be physical or biological. These are the strict conditions that have been confirmed by judicial practice,» Møse added.

⚡️ "We have proof" - Kuleba on the fall of the "Shahed" in Romania

🇺🇦Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said that Ukraine has photographic evidence of the falling of Shahed drones in Romania as a result of an attack on Ukrainian territory.

💬"I think that in this particular case, they [the Romanians] are now studying all aspects of what happened. It's pointless to deny that something fell there. And we authoritatively claim, with evidence, that it was Shahed drones that flew there. We have photographic evidence that something fell there," Kuleba told reporters.

⏲ Everyone is waiting for a reaction and conclusions from Romania, and the Ukrainian side is ready to help in recording terrorist acts on the part of Muscovy.

💬"We have photographic evidence. We are ready to share them, but the final conclusions will be drawn by the Romanian authorities, who will then have to not only draw conclusions but also say what they will do with them. It is easier to draw conclusions than to do something with them. That's why we are reacting so cautiously," the Ukrainian Foreign Minister added.

📌As a reminder, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, according to the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine, said that on the night of September 3 to 4, a ruzzian Shahed drone crashed into Romanian territory.

🇷🇴The Romanian ministry denied this fact.
