Our important operation in the Kupiansk sector. Mykhailo Drapatyi, Ihor Obolenskyi, and Pavlo Palisa reported on the initial results and progress of Operation Veles, carried out by the Khartiia 2nd Corps of the National Guard of Ukraine. More than 100 Russian occupiers have already been eliminated, and more than 30 have been taken prisoner. The underground advance has exceeded 15 kilometers.
The Russians had already tried to use underground gas pipelines to move through our positions and launch assault operations. Ukrainian warriors have successfully transformed this tactic, modernized it, and made it much more sophisticated and technologically advanced. We are protecting the lives of our people, inflicting losses on the occupiers, and achieving our objectives in the Kupiansk sector. Glory to Ukraine!

Umar Kremlev is sanctioned by Ukraine and linked to Healthy Fatherland, run by his wife’s twin sister. Ukrainian intelligence accuses the group of involvement in abducting and forcibly deporting Ukrainian children under the guise of “rehabilitation”.
This is the US Presidents son, unbelievable frankly, children.
Donald Trump Jr. reportedly took a hunting trip in August to a remote part of Mongolia with the Russian oligarch, Umar Kremlev, who helped pay for his wedding.

Zuckerberg already admitted it wrongly suspended the No Kings Instagram account during the peak of a massive voter-mobilization effort.
Now, seven days before the midterms, Zuckerberg has suspended the account Angie Nixon’s Senate campaign uses to organize Latino voters.
At what point do repeated “mistakes” that suppress organizing by Democrats become an election-integrity crisis?

2/ Analysts have recently identified a fresh expansion of the air defence ring around Putin's palatial residence at Valdai outside Moscow, one of the four locations from which he conducts most of his business (the others are the Kremlin, Novo-Ogaryovo, and Sochi).

1/ Vladimir Putin seems to have decided that protecting his palace at Valdai is more important than protecting Russia's vulnerable factories and oil refineries. A few bold Russian warbloggers are questioning why scarce air defence assets are being diverted for Putin's benefit. ⬇️

More scenes from Kyiv overnight where Russians once again poured ballistic missiles onto the city, targeting university dormitories, killing people, injuring many, all in partnership with the White House that refuses to deliver air defenses that Europe paid for.
This isn't about countries, this is the Trump family, Musk and Putin against global democracy.
