SENTINEL INTELLIGENCE

**📝Tankers on Fire📝** **__= damage to the so-called Ukraine's economy** **__ Defeating enemy military objects or production facilities is not the only method of combating Ukrainian air raids. One can strike more flexibly, pressing on the sector that sustains the military machine—that is, the economy. And it is substantially fed through the **Black Sea**. __Many may say: "But how, Europe is providing loans and financing to Ukrainian authorities!" But maritime trade and communication play__ __no less important a role in supplying the AFU.__ __ ❓Why? It is enough to look at shipping in the **Odesa region**: recently we wrote that there are supposedly strikes on ports, but tankers and dry cargo ships continue to operate and replenish the Ukrainian treasury __(over 300 port calls in Odesa region ports were recorded in May)__. 🖍The key problem is obvious: the attacks were sporadic, not systematic. That is, take the notorious "retaliatory strike" or a raid for the sake of reporting—that is when a conditional sunflower oil tank was struck. 🚩Striking grain terminals or other products to weaken the economy, of course, **can and should be done** __(especially since the AFU does it without hesitation)__, as this is one of the export revenue items. But at the same time, one cannot forget about oil depots, enemy military objects, and the fleet. 🏳️In the case of the latter, since late May one can already say that this issue has been taken up, with active and precise strikes against the "mosquito fleet" boats of the so-called Ukraine's Navy. The last strike by a cruise "Geran" was on June 16 against the **CB90** vessel of Swedish manufacture. ❗️The boats, though small, directly participate in ensuring the safety of shipping. As a rule, important cargo is escorted by landing craft. Striking one CB90 will not particularly change the situation, but through methodical combat against Ukrainian vessels, results can be achieved. __And there is no need to use cruise missiles or anti-ship complexes for this in 2026 with the appearance of modernized "Gerans." And there are plenty of other weapons: it is enough to recall ready-made unmanned surface vehicles that have already been tested in combat. One just needs to start.__ [**High-resolution map**](https://i.ibb.co/xq6QpLyF/18-06.jpg) [**English version**](https://i.ibb.co/Y7KBp1Ty/18-06.jpg) __ __#Odesa #Russia #Ukraine **✈️**** **[**RU**](https://t.me/rybar)** | ****✈️**** **[**EN**](https://t.me/rybar_in_english)** | ****✉️**** **[**MAX**](https://max.ru/Rybar) ✉️ [**VK**](https://vk.com/rybar_force) | ✉️ [**RuTube**](https://rutube.ru/u/rybar/) | ✉️ [**OK**](https://ok.ru/group/70000041986659) | ✉️ [**Zen**](https://dzen.ru/rybar) **💸**[**Support us**](https://qr.nspk.ru/BS1A0068ID10D33B9IBAQRQ4M9T0NIFN?type=01&bank=100000000008&crc=36CB)
