The Armed Forces of Ukraine have sunk a Russian barge carrying military personnel and equipment.

Quote: “[Ukrainian forces] have established fire control over the enemy’s transport routes, logistical hubs, manoeuvres and redeployment, bases and command points. As a result, the occupiers’ plans to restore the capacity of the Antonivka rail bridge, which they were trying to repair, have been thwarted.
[Ukrainian forces] also destroyed one ship from [Russia’s] alternative fleet: a barge which the occupiers were using to transport weapons and equipment. The vessel, now with several holes in it, and all of the equipment and personnel on its board, was sent along the same course as the infamous Russian warship [a reference to ‘Russian warship, go f*** yourself’; that was the reply of Ukrainian border guards who defended Zmiinyi (Snake) Island, when Russian Black Sea Fleet vessel ordered them to surrender – ed.].”
Details: The Operational Command reports that Russia’s confirmed losses amounted to 62 military personnel and five armoured vehicles.

It doesn’t look like the russian modifications worked.

The allies have satellite intel, plus partisan intel on the ground.
What stops them pounding these fucks 24/7 in Kherson and Krym?
A guess would be that they have to be very sparing with munitions. In other words, fighting with one arm behind their backs.
They must be given 40 more HIMARS, ammo and ATACM’s.
Immediately would not be soon enough.
Unfortunately there seems to be an issue with availability of HIMARS munition, not sure how reliable that info is but is one reason given as to why more units have not been provided. I agree that the ATACMs need to be provided immediately as well as several other goodies that have been discussed. Time for the west to find it’s balls to ensure Ukrainian Victory and end this rashist genocide once and for all. Soon lend/lease will be in motion. May everything on Ukraine’s wish list be granted and then some.
