Military reports

There were no official reports of progress on the fronts on Thursday. The Ukrainian General Staff reported on the liberation of 122 settlements from September 21 and indirectly admitted that the offensive in the north-west of the Kherson region has stopped. The situation in the Kherson region is commented by the regional council deputy Sergei Hlan. In the east, the offensive probably continues: the representative of the so -called “LPR” announced the evacuation of “social institutions” from Kremennaya and Svatov. Here, the Ukrainian head of the city, Alexander Stryuk, tells about the situation in Severodonetsk and his environs: according to him, all the Russians who came to restore him left the city, the communications there are muffled there, and local residents hide in the villages to avoid Russian mobilization. To the question of whether Russia is able to stop the Ukrainian counterattack, the military analysts responded with Medusa respond rather negatively , indicating the exhaustion of resources in Moscow.

The Wall Street Journal writes with reference to Oryx analysts and military officials that Russia has left more weapons in Ukraine since the beginning of its full -scale invasion than the Western countries transferred to Kiev. In this video, the Ukrainian military show trophy Russian equipment, here the military expert Valery Ryabykh explains how this equipment is used on the fronts.

The command of the air forces of Ukraine claims that on the night of Thursday in the south of the country, nine nine Iranian Drones-Kamikadze launched by the Russians were shot down. Since the beginning of the use of this type of weapon, according to the Ukrainian General Staff, out of 86 launched “marten”, 60% were shot down . How they are knocked down, it is told here . The good news is that the conveyor production of these drones in Iran is not established, and it is difficult to intensify artisanal, so the drones will just end soon. But while there are still reserves: on the night of Friday, the “flying mopeds” raided the Nikolaev region.

The victims of Russian missile strikes on five -story buildings in Zaporozhye steel, according to the latest data, six people, another 12 were injured. Here is a report from the place. On Thursday morning, Russian aircraft inflicted a missile blow to Ukraine from the territory of Belarus - the first from August 28. Two X-22 missiles were released from the Tu-22 m3 of strategic aviation in the Khmelnitsky region (they did not get anywhere). When a retreat in the Donetsk region, the Russian military undermined the dam - the village of Raigorodok was flooded.

Of the historical materials about the current war, readthe story of the Russian artilleryman , who wore a month with a little under Chernigov, after which he was fired for non -compliance with the terms of the contract - now he fears that he will be raked back already in the wake of “partial” mobilization. He says that he will sit better, but he will not go to fight.

Normalization of mobilization

In the military unit in the village of Kamenka of the Leningrad Region, a 28-year-old Petersburger shot himself during a training. The mother of the mobilized resident of Bratsk Alexander Koltun said that her son died on the fourth day of being in the educational part in the Novosibirsk region. According to her, when he called the last time, he said that "they do not give a form, do not feed, everyone staggering and drinking." Here is an incomplete list of similar deaths in the last week.

Relatives mobilized from Ufa and Chelyabinsk told the “layout” about the terrible conditions of their maintenance: they don’t feed in the military units, the huts are not heated, there is no soul and hot water, there are full of bugs in dirty mattresses. In the south of Russia , the situation is no different - except that there are no places even in barracks without hot water. Relatives purchase the equipment for mobilized themselves, and the Russian authorities are not going to compensate for these costs - the government portal “Explaining.rf” said this (in Buryatia, however, firewood is promised without breadwinner). But the Kuzbass authorities posed a moral question by the edge: the Governor of Tsivilev, the husband of Putin’s cousin, called on those who go to the front to marry their girls. “You go to the holy cause, you need to do everything as it should be in Rus',” he said.

For a “holy cause” they row everyone without analysis: immigrants from Central Asia who have received Russian citizenship, people with epilepsy and schizophrenia , rural teachers who lead half of all subjects, prisoners and even those who want to fight professionals abroad. The last two categories of fighters are, of course, the Wagner PMC. The suspicions that yesterday’s video of the outraged mobilized was Prigozhin’s provocation, it seems, did not materialize - it explains why .

The details of the first criminal case of evading mobilization, excited against a resident of Penza Maxim Moiseev, are set out here . The search was carried out with violations, after which the accused was kept in jail for three days, and then released on a recognizance not to leave. Lawyers consider this case illegal, because earlier the Russian Supreme Court explained that the sane article refers exclusively to conscripts. This, however, does not stop anyone: the Moscow military registration and enlistment office, according to rumors , demanded that the police put them into the wanted list of mobilization, and they are already looking for them in the Novosibirsk region.

Relatives sometimes manage to recapture illegally mobilized - these are a few stories with a happy ending and comments on lawyers. However, any lawyer will say that it is better to avoid the military enlistment offices and seek help in advance. Here is an interview with Grigory Sverdlin, who founded the project “Go Forest”, which helps the Russians not take part in the war.

The struggle with the “curds in the field” seemed to end: the military commissar of the Khabarovsk Territory, dismissed due to errors during mobilization, was returned to the post after three days.

Flight, protests and punishment

On the island of St. Lavrenty, relating to the state of Alaska, two Russians were detained , who, according to them, came by boat from Chukotka to avoid mobilization in Russia. Read the report from mobilization to Mongolia here . A live queue of Ukrainians at border crossings in the Pskov region after noise in the press resolved, but there are still a lot of cars there. Here, the Pskov politician Lev Schlosberg explains that at least part of the Ukrainians standing in this line - either refugees from the formally annexed by Russia occupied territories, or people who managed to obtain Russian citizenship - it turns out that they also run from Russian mobilization. According to Schlosberg, the Crimean transport company South Stream, which brings people to the border by buses, was reoriented to Belarus because of the Pskov chaos and will now bring the Ukrainians to the Lithuanian and Polish borders. Ukrainians do not need a visa to enter the EU; Can Russians by law claim asylum in the EU countries, understands in detail here (spoiler: Theoretically yes).

Inside Russia, protests boil down to an attempt to aim the military registration and enlistment office in the Kuban, arson of two cars in Moscow City and damage to a memorable board to the Donetsk militant Motorole in Ukhta. But the list of repressions is long:

• Three days after the launch, Roskomnadzor blocked the site of the Echo media project, created by former journalists of Echo of Moscow.
• The Ministry of Justice (for some reason on Thursday) replenished the list of “foreign agents” by the coordinator of the Vesna movement Bogdan Litvin and a former employee of Navalny’s headquarters and an activist of Vesna Timofey Martynenko. Both are abroad.
• For a 26-year-old English teacher, Olga Lizunkova from the Vorotynsky district of the Nizhny Novgorod region drew up a protocol on the “discredit” of the army for a conversation with students that it was better to go to prison than join the army. Pupils reported to her.
• The Petersburg Fem activist Marina Singh was arrested for seven days under the article on disobedience to the requirements of the police.
• The court in Moscow for five days arrested the coordinator of the Voice of Vladimir Egorov - also for “disobedience”.
• In Petrozavodsk, in relation to the 77-year-old pensioner of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Tatyana Savinkina, they opened a second criminal case on the “discredit” of the army. She pushes anti -war leaflets in her entrance.
• In relation to the Politics of Vladimir Kara-Murza, who was in the pre-trial detention center, the third criminal case was already opened -this time about the Stateizer. Here this step of Russian law enforcement officers is commented by his wife Eugene.
• The court appointed a year of restriction of freedom to the Petersburger, who in early March painted in the colors of the Ukrainian flag of the howitzer at the Artillery Museum.
• The court controlled by Russia in Sevastopol sentenced three Jehovah witnesses to the six years of the colony. They are recognized in Russia as “extremists” - probably because pacifists.

The head of the Russian Orthodox Church called for two days to pray for Putin’s health, and read about the mood among Russian Buddhists here .

Other Russian and Belarusian

Navalny's associates found five villas of the Deputy Prime Minister Golikova in Spain and Portugal, a Hotel on the Cote d'Azur, a Bombardier Challenger 600 aircraft, three golf clubs in Russia and one in Spain, shares in pharmaceutical companies and other ownership for 50 billion rubles. In the form of a film, the investigation can be seen here .

Lukashenko forbade raising retail prices in Belarus, and Russia allocates a loan of $ 1.5 billion for the needs of import substitution.

The KGB of Belarus brought to the "List of terrorists" of the journalist and activist of the Union of Poles Andrzej PODOLOT and four more people; Four journalists of an independent information agency Belapan, recognized in Belarus with an “extremist formation”, sentenced to “creation of extremist formation”, “preparation of unrest” by paying fines and services of lawyers to detained employees, betraying the state and non -payment of taxes.

International Echo of War

• The European Union approved the eighth package of sanctions against Russia. It introduces restrictions for seven legal entities and 30 individuals (including artists of Gazman, Rastorguev and Chicherin, CEC of Russia, Goznak, factories and design bureaus). In addition, the package introduces (but does not determine) the ceiling of prices for Russian oil and oil products, a ban on servicing cryptocurns of Russians and providing it with IT and consulting services, a ban on imports from Russia of weapons and its components. Export restrictions will affect coal, electronic components, technical products used in the aviation industry.
• How the OPEC+ decision to reduce oil production will affect the cost of oil, it is explained here (spoiler: not really, because the oil was not produced as much as it was stated; rather, a political signal should be considered).
• Sweden police confirmed the version that the leaks on the Northern Stream - 1 and Northern Stream 2 gas pipelines occurred as a result of explosions. In this regard, Norway limited entering its ports for Russian fishing vessels.
• The head of the Council of the Russian Federation, Valentina Matvienko, came to the Summit of the Parliaments of the G20 countries and offered the delegations of Ukraine “right today” to start negotiations on the world on the terms of Russia (Ukraine, predictably, did not react in any way). In parallel in Prague, a meeting of the leaders of 44 countries that make up the informal European political community is held . The idea to create such a format belongs to Emmanuel Macron; The head of European diplomacy Josep Borrel, before the meeting, said that its participants would discuss the creation of a "new order without Russia."
• The International Prize named after Anna Politkovskaya was awarded this year Tatyana Sokolova, a midwife from the Mariupol hospital No. 2, who was repeatedly fired by the Russian military, and Svetlana Gannushkina, the Russian human rights activist, the head of the Civil Promotion Foundation, which specializes in the help of refugees and forced immigrants. Here is an interview with them.

Around the world

• The DPRK launched ballistic missiles towards the Sea of Japan, the authorities of South Korea and Japan said. Pyongyang said that missile launches in recent days are a “fair answer” to the joint exercises of the United States and South Korea.
• In Thailand, the unknown person opened shooting in kindergarten, more than 30 people died - mostly children.
• Kasim-Zhomart Tokayev was nominated by a presidential candidate from the ruling party of Kazakhstan. He promises honest elections.
• The National Energy Service of Great Britain, the company National Grid, allowed the power outage in the case of a cold winter and gas interruptions. The approval of the British Prime Minister Liz Tracers collapsed to a record low level-but not because of the hypothetical shutdowns of light, but because of its unsuccessful economic plan, which involves a reduction in taxes for the rich, and not the support of ordinary citizens who are faced with high inflation and sky-high energy prices. Now Liz tracks is the most unpopular leader of the conservative party.
• The US President pardoned all convicts under federal laws for storing marijuana - this is about 6.5 thousand people. Bayden called on the governors to follow his example and have a pardon of convicts for the storage of marijuana under the laws of the States. This, obviously, is a pre -election step, although the mitigation of federal policy towards marijuana was one of Biden's promises in 2020.
