Ukraine continues to use long-range attack drones to attack Russian military infrastructure and cause serious damage to fighter jets, fuel tanks and ammunition depots On August 4, the Ukrainian army attacked a tank depot in Rostov and a missile attack on a Lugansk-style fuel depot Lugansk leader Leonid Pasechnik, who was occupied by Russia, said the Ukrainian army fired eight land-based tactical missiles and four storm-shadow cruise missiles at Lugansk Pasechnik said that the Russian air defense system dropped four missiles Some missiles hit a fuel depot Some fallen missile fragments caused a fire A video released by social media shows two thick smoke in the air of Lugansk A fuel depot in Rostov-on-Don was hit and caught fire At the same time, a fire broke out in the Lugansk mechanical manufacturing plant According to reports, the Russian army is repairing and storing military equipment there Russian sources said that the attack caused considerable damage On August 3, the Ukrainian army also launched a series of successful drone attacks on military targets in Rostov, Kursk and Belgrade, as well as on ammunition storage facilities near the Morozovsk airport The Ukrainian army is evaluating the damage caused by these attacks The Morozovsk airport, where the Russian 559 aircraft carrier air force is located, was attacked by Ukrainian drones on August 3 Although it is protected by the Russian air defense system, 40 of the 40 drones that attacked the airport have 18 successful targets Satellite images show that multiple Su-34 attack aircraft and Su-30 fighter jets from the air force base were damaged The video released on August 3 showed a second explosion near the Morozovsk airport which is similar to the statement that the ammunition depot was attacked Russian sources said that the Ukrainian army launched about 55 drones towards Rostov The Ukrainian General Staff reported that the Ukrainian military intelligence agency also attacked some oil depots in Rostov, Kursk and Belgrade, as well as fuel and lubricant storage facilities The Ukrainian special forces used 15 drones to attack the Atlas oil refinery in Rostov The Russian army is using the Atlas refinery to provide fuel for Lugansk and Donetsk military equipment Belgrade Governor Vyacheslav Gradov said Ukrainian drones also attacked the Belgrade-based Kursk oil depot According to reports, the oil depot supplied fuel to the Russian military According to the Russian Defense Ministry, the Russian army destroyed 75 Ukrainian drones in the air between August 2 and 3 Earlier, on August 2, the Ukrainian army destroyed four Russian S-400 anti-aircraft missile launchers a Russian S-500 anti-aircraft missile launchers and a Russian Black Sea fleet Ukrainian Navy Spokesman Dmitry Platonchuk said on August 3 that the Ukrainian army successfully destroyed the Russian military's S-400 and S-500 anti-aircraft systems The War Research Institute said that it had not yet been observed that the Ukrainian army attacked the Russian anti-aircraft system occupied by Crimea on August 2 There is no independent, appropriate report on the destruction of the Rostov-on-Don anti-ship Recently, there was a report that the Crimean People's Republic planned to transfer unknown missiles and other military equipment to the Yemeni Hussein Army but failed under diplomatic pressure The Russian report highlighted its growing military partnership with Iran and showed that Russia may be using Iranian agents to indirectly confront the West and influence its decisions On August 2, US officials and other informants said At least three Russian military officials will go to Yemen in late July to provide advice on Hussein's armament and may assist Hussein's armament in time-based exercises Russia is also preparing to send unknown missiles and other military equipment to Hussein's armament but gave up the plan under the diplomatic coercion of the United States and Saudi Arabia Russia may think that providing weapons and military consultations to Hussein's armament is a retaliation against the United States for cancelling the use of weapons provided by the United States to Ukraine to attack the Russian domestic target Russian President Vladimir Putin said on June 6 that Russia will provide long-range strike capabilities to unidentified collaborators to confront the West as a symmetrical response to the West's cancellation of some restrictions on the use of Western weapons in Ukraine The War Research Institute believes that Putin's unidentified collaborators should refer to Hussein's armament to indirectly confront the West and further upgrade the situation This is in line with some of Russia's information operations It is to intimidate the West and make them worry about the conflict with Russia spreading to other European regions and to reduce or stop supporting Ukraine Ukraine has confirmed that it has received the first batch of F-16 fighter jets Ukrainian President Zelensky announced on August 4 that Ukraine has received the first batch of F-16 fighter jets provided by the West He did not disclose the number of F-16 fighter jets that arrived in Ukraine in the first batch and which countries these aircraft came from But he is particularly grateful to Denmark, the Netherlands and the United States It is said that Ukraine has received a promise of 79 F-16 fighter jets By the end of 2024, Ukraine's air force should be able to drive up to 20 F-16s The War Research Institute believes that Ukraine will need a large number of F-16s in order to successfully deploy these fixed-wing aircraft into a wider range of air defense Ukraine also needs to use the long-range weapons provided by the West to target Russian air defense assets behind Russia and Ukraine's occupied territory In these areas, the F-16 fighter can fully play a role Russian military bloggers also responded to the arrival of F-16s and tried to mitigate their potential battlefield impact Before that, they claimed that the West handed over to Ukraine F-16s and other long-range weapons systems will be seen as an inevitable red line by Russia The red line has obviously been broken Now some Russian military bloggers say that the West and Ukrainian media hype the arrival of F-16s to divert people's attention from the failure of Ukraine's battlefield Many military bloggers, on the other hand, discuss how the Russian military will begin to target and destroy these F-16s The War Research Institute believes that Russian space commentators and Russian officials often say that providing the West with weapons from Ukraine constitutes a red line If it crosses this red line, it will force Russia to react However, Russia has repeatedly proved that the so-called red line is a reflective propaganda control method The purpose is simply to threaten the West and make them opposed to providing additional military aid to Ukraine out of fear In fact, since the beginning of the war, Western and Ukrainian policies have crossed the red line set by Russia many times but have not caused a major reaction from Russia Russian military bloggers' comments show that Russia's response to F-16s is also part of the information action At the same time as the first batch of F-16 fighters arrived, Ukraine was also deploying F-16 models to carry out deception tactics and mislead the Russian military while protecting the F-16s Recent reports show that the United States has provided Ukraine with 1-to-1 high-quality F-16 assault models As the real F-16s arrive in Ukraine, these baits become more and more important Russia and Ukraine have effectively used models and assault baits throughout the conflict to protect key assets and mislead opponents Although this tactic is not new, it is still a powerful tool in military strategy which helps to save precious resources and reduce the impact of precise strikes Previously, Ukraine had begun to use various bait tactics to protect its military assets including the production of Stunner anti-tank missiles, metal, plastic and wood models Ukraine has also deployed wood replicas of the Himmels rocket system which has caused Russia to consume a large amount of ammunition to attack these baits The actual loss of the Himmels rocket system of the Ukrainian army is very small In July this year, the Ukrainian Air Force claimed that it had successfully deceived the Russian military to use the Kremlin and Odessa fighter jets and anti-aircraft missile models as targets Russia had previously announced that it had destroyed a Ukrainian MiG-29 fighter jet at the Dovzhentsy airport Later, it was confirmed that they had destroyed a UAV During the Jaberor counterattack, Russia used UAVs full of fakes and simple explosive devices to lure the Ukrainian army When the Ukrainian army approached, these warplanes would explode and cause casualties to the Russian army The Russian and Russian sides have been using baits which highlights the importance of deceiving tactics in modern warfare
