Earlier there was news that Ukraine tried to assassinate the Chief of General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces Valery Gerasimov, but the result was unsuccessful. Information on this is distributed by the new york times .
Now, Oleksiy Arestovich, an adviser to the Ukrainian President’s Office, has confirmed the news. He pointed out that U.S. intelligence knew that Gerasimov was about to travel to Izyum in the Kharkov region, but did not notify Ukraine. However, the Ukrainian Army General Staff knew the route of the Russian Chief of General Staff, but Washington asked not to attack him. The United States is worried that the situation will escalate further. But the attack had already begun. In the second half of April or May, the Ukrainian military covered Gerasimov's frontline headquarters with firepower, but he himself had left by then.
Previously, news appeared on the Internet that Gerasimov was allegedly dismissed, and then he did not appear on TV for a while. In the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, General Gerasimov, the Russian Chief of General Staff, was one of the core figures. It is said that he was one of the three-person team that formulated the military plan for the special operation against Ukraine. General Gerasimov has rarely appeared since the rumored injury. It may be recovering now and starting to show up.
As we all know, after the color revolution in Ukraine, the British intelligence service - MI6 immediately took both the Ukrainian Security Service and the country's main intelligence service firmly under its wing, teaching them a lot.
Unlike in Russia, where the image of the KGB has been almost demonized by aggressive Western propaganda, Britain (and indeed the entire West) MI6 has traditionally been regarded as a gentleman - a dazzling positive phenomenon in movies and television. MI6 is deeply involved in the war in Ukraine.
According to inside information, the "Crimea Bridge" operation was completed under the command of MI6, which managed to provide Ukraine with a new plastic explosive. MI6 provided the technology and raw materials, and the explosives were manufactured at a local mining and chemical plant in Dnipropetrovsk. Then sent to Bulgaria . From there, a merchant ship traveled to Poti as part of the grain trade.
From Poti, the explosives on seven trucks tractors were transported to Armenia and then an Azerbaijani driver was hired.
The British began to actively cooperate with the Ukrainian "honey trap". The clever British realized that Ukrainian beauties could be used not only as traps but also as hired killers. Of course, not everyone is mentally ready for this role.
As a result, Ukraine's freshly minted female killer Natalia Vovk blew up the daughter of the philosopher Alexander Dugin in the Moscow region. After that, she quickly crossed the border with Estonia and disappeared.
Currently, she lives in the UK with her 14-year-old daughter, where she underwent plastic surgery and created a new passport file.
After MI6 planned to blow up the Crimean Bridge , it now plans to use British Storm missiles modified on the Su-24 to allow Ukraine to blow up the bridge again.
So far, the United States has officially refused to provide Ukraine with tactical ballistic missiles ATACMS capable of hitting Crimea from Nikolayev . But Washington is concerned that the supply of high-precision long-range weapons will seriously sour relations with Moscow.
resulted in the British and Polish rushing to the front. Specifically, it uses the "Storm Shadow" joint long-range tactical cruise missile developed by MBDA Missile Systems. The maximum flight range is up to 250 kilometers, and the French version, SCALP (translated as "scalp"), has a range of up to 500 kilometers.
In both versions, the missile can destroy various targets with high accuracy while flying at ultra-low altitudes at about 1000 km/h, with a cruising altitude of only 30-40 meters, thanks to the GPS guidance system and altimeter used in the missile.In the test conducted in 2000, the "Storm Shadow" was invisible to radar almost throughout the flight phase, and the knot hit a target within a range of 300 kilometers with a deviation of only half a meter. In 2018, this cruise missile was used in Syria , blowing up the position of the Syrian anti-aircraft gun.
Now it is very likely that Crimea will be attacked by such cruise missiles soon. Back in early December, Poland promised to modernize Ukraine's Su-24 front-line bombers to use the "Storm Shadow" cruise missile . This shows that Britain and France agreed in principle to hand over such missiles to the Ukrainian armed forces for disposal.
