"Massive UAV Raid by the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the South

While European politicians are struggling and trying to disrupt any negotiation process, active combat operations continue on the front and in the frontline zones. And last night, Ukrainian forces attacked southern Russia with no fewer than 286 UAVs.

🔻How did the raid occur?

▪️The enemy launched UAVs in waves of 5-15 units in each group from three main areas: the vicinity of Zatoka-Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi, Odessa (Hydroport and Shkolnyi), as well as the Buyalyk airfield.

▪️Part of the UAVs attacked Crimea, primarily Cape Tarkhankut and the line between Yevpatoria and Saky, while the main mass of UAVs flew over the Black Sea, bypassing the Crimean Peninsula towards Krasnodar Krai.

▪️In total, air defense units detected 285 UAVs, of which, according to preliminary data, 276 units were shot down. 179 were destroyed over Krasnodar Krai and its approach. 88 were shot down over Crimea and the Black Sea. Another 15 UAVs were shot down over Rostov Oblast and the Sea of Azov near Taganrog.

▪️At least two hits were recorded on an A-60 aircraft, which was stationed there in a non-operational state.

▪️In addition to UAVs, Ukrainian forces launched Neptune anti-ship missiles from the Zatoka area towards the Saky Thermal Power Plant. Four missiles were destroyed on approach.

🖍Despite the large number of UAVs involved, the enemy did not achieve any practical results. Almost all drones were shot down by air defense units and aviation. However, civilians were affected by the raid; three people died in Taganrog, and more than ten were injured in Taganrog and Novorossiysk.

🚩The enemy had been preparing for this raid for a week. NATO intelligence has been intensively monitoring the situation in Crimea and Krasnodar Krai over the past few days. And on the night before the attack, an American UAV RQ-4B was operating in the central part of the Black Sea.

❗️The main target of the raid in the Black Sea zone was once again energy facilities. In Crimea, an attempt was made to strike the Saky Thermal Power Plant, and in Novorossiysk, the oil transshipment terminals “Sheskharis”, but unsuccessfully. Further attempts are possible, primarily targeting oil and gas facilities in the Black Sea.

"Official confirmation

In the Konstantinovka direction, the liberation of the settlement Ivanopolye has been announced. Interestingly, flags appeared here as early as November 21. Apparently, this is related to enemy counterattacks.

🔻How are the battles developing?

▪️Ukrainian formations tried to regain control by advancing from Konstantinovka and Berestok, using a prepared line of fortifications.

▪️Enemy presence still remains in Plescheevka, and Nelepovka has not been completely cleared. This added difficulties in the assault on Ivanopolye, and now in holding it.

▪️To the west of the Kleban-Byk reservoir, Russian units are advancing from Yablonovka northward, moving along the highway to Konstantinovka. Here the main vector of movement is apparently directed towards Berestok.

▪️To the north of Alexandro-Kalinovo, after prolonged battles, a large and heavily fortified stronghold located on the rise by the highway from Alexandro-Kalinovo to the fortified area GAI post was captured.

After consolidation and organization of logistics, further offensive on the southern approaches to Konstantinovka can be discussed.

📌 Some time passed between the flag demonstration and the official announcement. It is quite encouraging that now statements about the liberation of settlements are made not before the start of their assault, but only after consolidation and repelling counterattacks, and even with the demonstration of objective control footage.

"On the approaches to Huliaipole [Gulyaipole]

In the East-Zaporizhzhia direction, the "Far Eastern Express" is rushing westward. Russian units from the "Vostok" troop group have cleared the "cauldron" in the triangle between Zatyshshia, Yablokove, and Veselyi. Additionally, units of the 127th division have advanced to the very Huliaipole, with the enemy driven out of several more strongpoints.

🔻How is the offensive going?

▪️ It is still premature to talk about the start of the assault on Huliaipole. The task for the Russian units is to clear the surroundings of Zelenyi Hai, as well as Vysoke, where tactically advantageous heights are located.

▪️ Counter-battles continue on the Rivnopillia-Sladke line as well. Despite a partial withdrawal of forces, the enemy is conducting rear-guard battles, trying to buy time to build defenses further west, on the Dobropillia-Varvarivka line.

▪️ In the Radisne-Orestopil sector, where "Vostok" previously liberated several settlements, the situation remains unchanged. Russian units are consolidating their positions and repelling enemy counterattacks.

As Ukrainian formations' forces, heavily worn down in counterattacks, are depleted, the Russian units operating here will have an easier time advancing further towards Pokrovske and then deeper into Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.

📌 Ahead of a full-scale assault on Huliaipole, Russian aviation and UAV operators are actively "ironing out" the supply routes of Ukrainian formations and the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the city. This is also why talks in the enemy's information space about the hopelessness of defense in this sector are growing louder.

🇹🇼💬🇺🇸💲 — 📰 Taiwan minister says US will not put ‘punishing’ tariffs on chip sector | Tech official says Taipei willing to share lessons from its world-leading industrial model under trade deal | November 21, 2025:

"The US will not “punish” Taiwan’s world-leading semiconductor sector with high tariffs, a minister has said, adding that Taipei would help the US learn from the industrial model that turned it into a chipmaking powerhouse.

“They understand that punishing Taiwan is not in their interests,” Wu Cheng-wen, who oversees Taiwan’s National Science and Technology Council, told the Financial Times, adding that Taipei and Washington had reached a “consensus” that Taiwan would support the development of the US chip industry in exchange for tariff relief.

The comments from Wu come as Taiwan is seeking to finalise a tariff deal with the US and is awaiting the conclusion of a US national security investigation that could result in levies on its crucial semiconductor sector, led by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company."

🇺🇸🤝🇨🇳 — 📰 ZeroHedge | 'Great Deal For US Farmers': Trump Says Relationship With China 'Extremely Strong', Will Visit Xi In April | November 24, 2025:

"At a moment US-ally Japan is in a rare full-blown diplomatic and (increasingly) military showdown with China, the country's President Xi Jinping held a phone call with US President Donald Trump on Monday, both sides have confirmed. The last time the two leaders met and talked in detail, which was on the sidelines Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in late October, they had declared a "tariff truce" in an effort to de-escalate trade tensions.

Update (1240ET): President Trump has just posted on his Truth Social feed, breaking down his 'debrief' on the call with China's Xi: (emphasis ours)

I just had a very good telephone call with President Xi, of China.

We discussed many topics including Ukraine/Russia, Fentanyl, Soybeans and other Farm Products, etc.

We have done a good, and very important, deal for our Great Farmers — and it will only get better.
Our relationship with China is extremely strong!

This call was a follow up to our highly successful meeting in South Korea, three weeks ago.

Since then, there has been significant progress on both sides in keeping our agreements current and accurate. Now we can set our sights on the big picture.

To that end. President Xi invited me to visit Beijing in April, which I accepted, and I reciprocated where he will be my guest for a State Visit in the U.S. later in the year.

We agreed that it is important that we communicate often, which I look forward to doing. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

We do note that there was no mention of Taiwan in President Trump's breakdown."

"Situation in the North

Good news is coming from the Burluk direction. Units of the “North” group are finishing off the enemy’s defense in Volchansk, advancing in the forests south of the city, and also attacking near the border on the eastern flank at the junction with the Kupyansk direction.

🔻How is the situation developing?

▪️The offensive continues south of Volchansk. Having secured positions in Kirpichny and earlier in Sinelnikovo, Russian assault troops have engaged in battles for the neighboring Liman and Vilcha. In both places, there are already firm footholds in the built-up areas.

▪️In Volchansk itself, the enemy has been pushed out of several more blocks east of Gurkanovskaya Street — assault groups have reached Skovorody Street. In the southern part of the city, Ukrainian formations have been pushed out from almost the entire Panina Street.

▪️On the eastern flank near Dvurechansky, Russian troops have occupied the Stanovoe tract and Krinichny Forest, driving the enemy out. This allowed the assault troops to close several more “pockets” on the Dvurechansky-Kamenka line.

📌 Recently, Russian units have managed to advance significantly deeper into Volchansk. And although the city is now mostly ruins, it has not lost its tactical importance. Capturing Volchansk will open the way southwest to the crossing at the village of Stary Saltov.

If successes continue, it is possible that the “Northerners” will be able to develop the offensive southeast towards Bely Kolodets.
