It would have been nice if the “goodwill gesture” had been true. Perhaps it is prescient.
x In the morning, Russian state media announced that Russian troops have been "regrouped" near Dnipro river (temporarily occupied part of Ukraine). They claimed that troops have retreated to "more favorable positions to the East."

Several minutes later, the media have deleted the news: "The news... is ANNULLED like one that has been published by mistake. We apologize to our followers and readers," TASS agency wrote.Some Russian Telegram channels have quickly reported that the news about the troops that retreated has a "Ukrainian trace". However, other credible sources report that the news was indeed true but now the Russian ministry of defense ordered those troops to "stand till the end".
Russia has also been grinding Orikhiv into rubble. Orikhiv is about 10 miles north of Robotyne and had a prewar population of about 13,900.

Targeting the Black Sea fleet has paid off. However, it is likely Russia will adjust and correct this situation eventually.

“The enemy was forced to relocate its cruise missile carriers to Novorossiysk, but the logistics that service these carriers remained in Sevastopol. That’s why you are seeing such a big pause in the use of missiles, because now the enemy is faced with the problem of lack of logistics,” explained the speaker of the Naval Forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Dmitry Pletenchuk.
This is a pretty sight.

Helpful tips in case you are ever driving along minding your business while invading somebody else’s country and you are suddenly stalked by an FPV kamikaze drone.
x How to save yourself in this situation? Step 1: remove your seatbelt and be prepared to jump out of a car and run (but you can simply die in a car crash then on the other day).

Jordan turned a nice profit.
x The US bought 60 Gepard self-propelled anti-aircraft guns from Jordan for €110 million to be send to Ukraine. The systems were previously sold to Jordan by the Netherlands back in 2013 for 'only' €21 million.

These numbers are probably correct, unfortunately.
x Citing data from US officials, The Economist claims that at least 70.000 Ukrainian soldiers died and up to 120.000 were wounded as a result of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

In reality, according to verified data, at least several hundred scientists, science figures, and high-ranking teachers have left Russia since the war began. Among them are the academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, president of the Moscow Mathematical Society Viktor Vasiliev, corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences Yuri Kovalev, professors of the Russian Academy of Sciences Sergey Popov and Alexander Markov. The international organization Scholars at Risk took 200 people out of Russia. The German Alexander von Humboldt Foundation took more than 60 scientists out of Russia. And this is not counting dozens and hundreds of younger and less titled researchers.
In reality, he died for nothing.
x • Graduated in April ’23
• Sent to the battlefield in August
• Eliminated on 17 September near Nova Kakhovka, Kherson Oblast by a grenade dropped from a drone.
As usual, indoctrinated Russians claim that he died “defending his Homeland”.

The display of the colors blue and yellow together in any form continues to be a serious crime Russia intends to stamp out.
