I am Ukrainian. My country has been invaded by Russia. In this video I will tell you what happened on the five hundred eighty ninth day of the war.

Day 589: Oct 05

Today, there are a lot of important updates from the Tokmak direction and Crimea.

First of all, today, Ukrainian Intelligence released more information about yesterday’s amphibious raid on the Russian base in Crimea. The video clarified a lot of questions, especially where was the high-speed boat that Russian sources were alluding to. As it turned out, the purpose of the boat was to provide cover during the withdrawal. And it makes sense because it is extremely difficult to return fire from jet skis. So, when the assault units started leaving the shore, Ukrainians on the boat opened fire from a machine gun from a distance to fix Russian troops.

In the meantime, fresh satellite imagery from Plat Labs revealed that there are fewer and fewer Russian ships in Crimea and that the core of the Russian Black Sea Fleet is no longer at home in Sevastopol. Most Russian ships were relocated to Novorossiysk – more precisely, 3 submarines, 2 rocket-launching ships, and 1 patrol ship. Smaller and less important ships were relocated to Feodosia – one assault-landing ship, a lot of small rocket-launching ships, and mine sweepers.

When it comes to the Tokmak direction, here, Ukrainians have opened one more axis of advance – toward Kopani. The goal of this operation is to give Ukrainian forces more room for maneuver when conducting assaults on Novoprokopivka, as well as reduce the risk of a flank attack at the most inconvenient time.

And this is a prudent decision because the latest updates suggest that Ukrainians gradually crossed the minefields and got very close to Novoprokopivka from the east. Recently released geolocated footage shows Russian Airborne units striking entrenched Ukrainian forces in a tree line just east of the village. This video confirms that Ukrainians managed to advance by almost 1 more km and establish tight control over new positions. If Ukrainians advance along the same tree line by 600 more meters, Ukrainians will be able to attack Novoprokopivka directly from the east.

But a more tactically sound decision would be to fix Russian troops on the hills because if we look at the topographic map, we can see that Russians control a hill southeast of the settlement. This hill helps Russians in resisting Ukrainian assault from the north. However, if Ukrainians start attacking this hill from the tree line simultaneously with the attacks on the settlement, Russian forces on the hill would be too busy to provide support to their units that are defending the village.

The biggest Ukrainian vulnerability in this situation would be the western flank because even if Ukrainians completely breach the Russian defense here and enter the village, Russian forces can conduct a counterattack along the ridge of the elevated platform and potentially split Ukrainian forces in half. In order to eliminate the possibility of such a disaster, Ukrainians launched a powerful attack on Kopani.

Today, Russian sources reported that Ukrainian artillery fire does not cease for a minute. Ukrainian sources substantiated these claims by releasing multiple videos of how Ukrainian forces destroy Russian shelters and observation posts. By the way, this is exactly where Ukrainian fighters from the Immaterium detachment detected Russian reinforcements in the tree line and destroyed 5 armored fighting vehicles with cluster bombs.

Russian sources also reported that Ukrainians are conducting their attacks at night, likely to leverage the widely available night vision equipment. Russian sources also admitted that Ukrainians managed to advance and establish control over at least 1 more trench network. Other sources, however, report that Ukrainians conducted a broad attack and managed to put all Russian fortifications on the hill in the grey zone, meaning the trenches in this region frequently change hands. And if we look at the topographic map, we can see that Ukrainians are taking control of the trenches on the tactical heights. If Ukrainians manage to push Russians into the lowlands completely, the flanks will be protected, and any Russian flank attack will be met with a reciprocal flank attack from the north.

At the start of the invasion I was clinging to hope for Kyiv, now I’m in awe at the Muscovite naval flight from Sevastopol. Keep supporting Ukraine, a bulwark against expanding North Korea 2.0.

'extremely difficult to return fire from a jetski'. Guess this explains why the bad guys on jetskis always missed when shooting at James Bond in the movies!

This is absolutely outrageous! The aggressors are not only targeting our military but also striking at civilians and medical facilities. It's a blatant violation of international humanitarian law, and it's high time the international community takes decisive action against such atrocities. Let's discuss the urgent need for a strong international response to these heinous acts and how they impact the ongoing conflict.

Yeah, you fight because of freedom, your birth country, history and pride in your nation and for the lives of your countrymen. But I just wanted to thank you and say that you do it all so well, especially your broadcasts to allow us all over the world to know what's happening, without flowery words, you're succinct, articulate and honest. I thank you and pray for your success sooner than the politicians can usurp your goals to belittle your efforts. Slava Ukraine!
