Inside a secret Ukrainian mission behind enemy lines | DW News
Ukrainian special forces are operating on the wrong side of the Dnipro river. They've gained footholds in Russian-held territory and are keeping the enemy busy. We look at what these small groups of Ukrainian soldiers are doing - just 100km from Crimea

Russians have been aware of their presence since that fist ambush but are still in the dark regarding how many Ukrainians there are in each bridgehead, how many bridgeheads there are in total, which routes they use to move around and where they shelter overnight -- so this is indeed at least in my book a secret mssion
That is why Ukraine is winning. The mystery is finally revealed😂😂😂

The Surovikin line is impossible to penetrate. That is why Ukraine Counter Offensive failed. They cannot find any weak points. What other choices did the Ukrainian Army has? Its easier and more successful to cross the river into Russian territory than trying to break the Surovikin line.
Is Krynki a valuable bridgehead for the Ukrainians? Yes it is. Will it help in any way other than sending soldiers to their deaths? No, it's just wasted soldiers who can't expand that bridgehead and only sit in basements

There are events, called: "Press conferences" where journalists interview public figures, to convey informations or policies... and there is nothing evil about that. Now, if you have a problem with a specific country policy, may it be foreign or domestic, there are generally official channels you can use to voice your concern. Participate in your democracy, if you have one, if not, I'm sorry for you but know that you have my support to make your dictature great, for once, by destroying it and joining the free world.

1:54 So, in terms of Ukrainian capabilities, Crimea might as well be on the Moon?
The Ukrainian special forces to the Russian troops are like having a few mosquitoes in the room when you're trying to sleep. It stresses them to be ever watchful for a surprise attack.
Оооо теперь я знаю все секреты, пойду расскажу Путину😂
Russian are not scared neither worried about any of this
I remember the famous statement by Napoleon "we are winning "😂😂
I’d be more worried by the recent Russian bridgeheads which pose a real threat.
Guess its not so secret anymore.
Does the narrator understand that, a Bridgehead by definition has to e expand to be sustainable and once established armored reinforcements are a must, otherwise the Bridgehead soon becomes unsustainable and essential becomes a death trap for soldiers holed out and will eventually transform into their burial ground.
It appears this video is like two or three moths late.
For those following military bloggers, these bridge heads have been known for a while. The numbers and exact positions have been secretive. New York times ran a story on it a while ago too.
You totally failed to comment on how much this is costing Ukraine other than, Ukraine losses is a big secret!
" We are winning " 😂😂😂😂
DW News teaches young people the Germany is 1989 - West German
Good stuff Thanks for reporting.
Thank you DW German for sharing this. Best regards, WAGNER.
God bless the people of Ukraine 🇺🇦 from us here in Australia 🇦🇺
There is only one bridgehead in Krynky and it is just a PR stunt by Ukraine cuz it makes no sense, Ukraine lost thousdands of Marines trying to hold Krynky, Russian artillery and FPV drones directly hit Ukranian positions and even their boats when they try to cross the river. One Ukranian soldier said that his superiors told them that attack and the enemy will run away. However that was not the case. He said that the Russians exactly knew where to find them and hit them.
We can all be supporters of Ukraine. For example, by donating to United24 which funds important drone programmes.

I did not get the purpose of bridgeheads. What is it for?
Если честно, это какой-то грёбаный цирк. Превратили провал и мясорубку в какое-то геройство и спец операцию.

with how open and honest ukraine is about their strategy, they must have almost no confidence in their plans or they think this is some big-brained 4d chess move.
Telling your enemy what you are doing and what you getting is not no secret.
Meanwhile in kharkiv:
Not many people have heard of this mission because it’s pure, weapons grade Baloneyium.
What a discovery from DW!
Supplying your troops on the other side of the river using boats under enemy fire for months. Sounds like a drain on already scarce resources to me.
This bridgehead has been in place for months. They are fixing Russian forces in place and drawing reinforcements to the region. It's just not new, if you are watching the Ukrainian commenters.
Hahaha!!! This is as usual doomed to fail. In fact it's suicidal
