Orcs Expelled from Snake Island: Next “Gesture of Goodwill”?

June 30, 2022February 11, 2026

More and more sources that haven’t been noticed in overly optimistic sensations report that in recent days, the Armed Forces of Ukraine regularly struck Snake Island. Orcs expelled from Snake Island after our military destroyed practically everything they hauled there for so long and tediously to make an “unsinkable aircraft carrier”. We’ve encountered this formulation more than once among Orc¹ experts.

But one of the conditions for an aircraft carrier’s survivability is its high speed and excellent maneuverability. And if you compare an aircraft carrier to a small piece of land where the coordinates of every point are reliably known, and you can’t influence this in any way, then all the unsinkability loses any meaning. Everything rests on one simple circumstance: does your opponent have the means that can work on these points? Moreover, you don’t need to sink anything there specifically. We have such means. Therefore, the “unsinkable aircraft carrier” turned into a target.

The Trap Closes: No Way Out

We must pay tribute to the endurance of our military. They let the enemy bring to the island a maximum of expensive toys. These included EW, communications, radar, air defense, and various goodies necessary for their special forces sabotage groups. When it became clear that the delivery of everything already approached its finale, a nightmare began there. After a transport heading to Snake Island was sunk, it became clear that the mousetrap slammed shut. There’s simply nothing to export all the hardware back with. The Armed Forces of Ukraine clearly showed that now they’ll send to the bottom everything that tries to approach the island.

And then came the first massive strike on the island. After this, it turned into a suitcase without a handle. This is understandable. Instead of covering operations in this area and performing the role of a sabotage group base, the only task regarding Snake Island became to evacuate the surviving personnel as quickly as possible. Because they too are entirely non-simple. And at that moment it became clear that equipment can’t be exported anymore.

“Gesture of Goodwill”: The Retreat Begins

Some large vessel, possibly a frigate, tried to approach the island. But something there broke or caught fire. It became clear that no more options exist. They urgently need to evacuate the surviving Pidars² from there on small vessels. This is simply because the Orcs were confident that we wouldn’t spend powerful missiles on small boats. And here they’re right. We still need to sink the remaining fleet. Therefore, missiles must be saved for larger targets.

As far as one can understand, at dawn the enemy blew up the remains of equipment, ammunition, and gear. Personnel were removed from the island by small vessels. They also loaded part of the corpses there. The enemy side, unofficially, already confirms withdrawal from Snake Island. This means they recognized the impossibility of even holding it. And the impossibility of using it as originally planned already goes without saying. And today their clown in pince-nez, who already received general’s shoulder straps for spouting nonsense on behalf of their military department, told about how they exported their corpses from Snake Island and several living ones as a “gesture of goodwill”.

Thus, now in Crimea they’ll know that expansion has choked and retreat has begun. Already the second, after Zhytomyr, Kyiv, Chernihiv, and Sumy oblasts. And there everyone was aware of why they captured the island and built everything else there. And we’re sure that the “goodwill” of Orcs will sooner or later touch Kerch, Amvrosiivka, Luhansk, and other of our still occupied cities. Orcs expelled from Snake Island marks just the beginning of russia’s long retreat from Ukrainian territory.

¹Orcs – a common term for Russians who support or participate in the armed aggression against Ukraine. Dehumanizing? Yes. Accurate? Also yes.

²Pidar (pronounced “pidar”) – Ukrainian military slang for a Russian service member. In radio communications, the word “Pidar” sounds shorter and clearer than “Enemy” especially under EW.
