A small UPD about the Pokrovsk direction by Kindratyuk
"Well, the situation near Pokrovsk is once again gradually turning critical.

They enter the mine’s territory in small groups but fail to hold positions for long, as they are quickly eliminated. Still, these are worrying signs.

In the southern part of the city, the occupiers constantly infiltrate the southern neighborhoods in small groups, taking

Our soldiers keep driving them out, but the situation has worsened and is now very difficult.
The only sector still holding is the flank near Rodynske. It’s holding at a great cost — my nephew, Oleksandr Kindratyuk, was killed there — but it holds.

Zelenskyy made this statement in an interview on Oct 9.
“For exple, when we had major problems w/ artillery—at one point, we simply had none—we started using other means,” he said -Today we have artillery systems that we manufacture ourselves; we already have a surplus of them

However, He explained that challenges remain with the 155mm caliber—the NATO standard 🇺🇦 is gradually adopting.
He noted that even w/ enough artillery systems available, not all units can transition from older Soviet guns because the supply of 155mm shells is still limited

🇷🇺 banks have reduced lending by more than 4 times in the first half of the year, from 11 trillion to 2.5 tn.

But at the same time, they have sharply increased the purchase of federal bonds, from 0 to 1.2 tn ₽.

Banks have started lending for government debt!

What it means⤵️

What’s Happening with Russian Banks?

❗️1. Lending has crashed

Banks gave out 4 times less money in loans this year.

That means businesses and people are not borrowing, and banks are afraid to lend.

It’s a sign the economy is in big trouble.

2/

🏦2. Banks are buying government debt instead

They stopped lending and started buying government bonds.

This means banks are giving money to the state, not to the economy.

It’s like the government is forcing banks to help fund the war.

The 1st documented use of the M712 Copperhead 155mm shell by the ZSU.
- Unit - SOF
- Location - Kursk
- Target - communication tower (between the Pravda and Martinivka settlements)
- Aiming device - a Leonardo's Type 163 LTD.
- Distance to the target 2256 meter.
- Gun - M777.
1/

- The 1st round - direct hit to the target (most antennas were damaged or destroyed)
- The 2nd round - direct hit, the tower was partially leaning
- The 3rd round - missed its target, reason - seeker's malfunction
The M712 is a ShCh round, so it was unable to destroy the tower
2/

The M777 crew had only three M712 rounds, so after that SOF group returned back.
Conclusion:
- The Type 163 LTD must illuminate the target straight or from down to up, from up to down designation don't recommend - target can reflect laser beam and affect the round seeker

According to our various sources, France will supply between twelve and twenty Mirage 2000-5Fs to war-torn Ukraine next year. The Minister of the Armed Forces has targeted the first quarter, i.e. between January 1 and March 30, 2025.

By then, the French teams must ensure the operational transformation of pilots and the advanced training of mechanics and gunsmiths. It is currently unknown whether one or more Mirage 2000B two-seaters will be integrated into the batch of aircraft supplied.

On the other hand, what is certain is that from pure fighters specialized in air policing within the Air and Space Force, the Mirage 2000-5Fs will become multi-role combat aircraft in the ranks of the Povitryani Syly Zbroynykh Syl Ukrayiny.
