The Ukrainian drone strikes on Moscow once again demonstrate the futility of weapons restrictions and the Kremlin's lack of red lines. This is the largest drone attack on Moscow from Ukraine. Drones hit Ramenskoye, Domodedovo, and Zhukovsky. Several drones hit residential

buildings. This may be due to the work of Russian air defense. Ukraine is aiming at military targets because bombing civilians does not improve the situation at the front. Drones do not cause much destruction since their warhead is about 10 times smaller than that of Russian
2/11 Image
FAB-500 bombs, but they have a psychological effect. Russia is not going to stop. The loss of part of the Kursk region, huge losses of personnel, a declining economy - Russia is not going to withdraw its troops from Ukrainian territory. In this case, the aggressor can only
3/11 Image
be stopped by moving the war to Russian territory and destroying the Putin regime. The Kremlin will survive the loss of Kursk, but the landings in Moscow are very close to the work of many propagandists and the Russian leadership. And this worries those on whom Putin's
4/11 Image
regime relies. Drone attacks become commonplace and will only happen more often. However, threats to Putin's regime do not only come from Ukraine. Internal ethnic conflicts with residents of the Caucasus are becoming more frequent, and on September 3, another fight on this
5/11 Image
basis took place in the city of Anapa. As the Anapa Media portal wrote, on the night of September 3, on Pionersky Prospekt, a girl refused to meet a representative of one of Russia's neighboring republics and received a portion of insults. When other guys stood up for her,
6/11 Image
a crowd of Caucasians attacked them and began to beat them up. Later, the commander of "Akhmat" Apti Alaudinov stood up for them, blaming the girl for everything. Russia is losing strength, and this is felt by representatives of those peoples who have been humiliated and
7/11 Image
discriminated against throughout their coexistence with Russia. Tensions are growing between Akhmat and Russian troops. If Russia starts to fall apart, it will be because of the war in Ukraine, but it will start with Chechnya and Dagestan. Russia is still trying to advance,
8/11 Image
but the advance in the Pokrovsky direction has slowed. "Agency" published the size of the territories captured by Russia from August to September based on DeepState data and it is clear that the advance has slowed. Russia is starting to show signs of resource problems, but
9/11 Image
Ukraine in turn has also transferred additional forces and more experienced brigades, like Azov, to stop the advance. The intensity of the offensive remains high, but the attacks are repelled more successfully. Ukraine is having a very hard time. Every day. Two and a half
10/11 Image
years. The length of the entire front line is more than 3 thousand km. The line of active combat operations is more than 970 km, but Ukraine is not defeated and it is obvious that Russia cannot win. However, how much longer the war will continue, no one can say.

This week, we received an answer on how effective the Korean troops are and how much they are helping Russia in the Kursk region. Footage of North Korean attacks demonstrates that they lack the skills to conduct modern warfare, which was not a surprise. They managed to
1/15 Image
capture several trenches, which were eventually recaptured by Ukrainian forces. The North Koreans became easy targets as they advanced through open fields in large groups. They proved to be ineffective, but it should not be forgotten that Ukrainians still have to repel these
2/15 Image
attacks, incurring their own losses. The situation remains difficult on the Pokrovsk direction as well. However, there have been some changes and personnel reshuffles. For a long time, reports from the area highlighted inadequate command, which led to the advancement of

No dictatorship lasts forever, and all dictators are mortal. Putin, due to his age alone, may "kick the bucket" very soon, although, unlike ordinary Russians, he can afford proper medical care. The events in Syria are clearly a significant blow to his nervous system and
1/9 Image
heart health. Such a scenario is now easy to imagine within Russia itself. The fall of Assad created a power vacuum in Syria, and now several countries are advancing their interests. Sunnis backed by Turkey, Kurds supported by the U.S., factions supported by Israel, Iran and
2/9 Image
remnants of Hezbollah, along with the remains of Russian units — all of it has become a chaotic mix. It's far too early to speak of an end to the crisis. Stability in Syria will not return soon. Over the years, Assad destroyed the moderate opposition, leaving only the most

Russia continues to advance and achieve local successes in the areas of Pokrovsk and Kurakhove. However, it is difficult to call this a success, as it comes at a huge cost in Russian losses. In this sense, the report differs little from previous ones from this section of the
1/22 Image
front. But the main events of recent days are, of course, in Syria. The regime of Bashar al-Assad has fallen, and it took only a few days for this to happen. Bashar al-Assad was the last dictator from the era of the Arab Spring. Ben Ali, Hosni Mubarak, Abdelaziz Bouteflika,

Muammar Gaddafi – for various reasons, they are no longer in power. Among all the countries of the Middle East and North Africa, Syria saw the highest number of casualties and destruction. Protests, which escalated into a civil war, began in 2011. Losing power and control,

The recent setbacks of the Russian military in Syria could prompt the Kremlin to strengthen its influence in Georgia as a way to compensate for its declining regional power. With its reputation in ruins and the world growing less fearful of Russia, Moscow may seek to
1/16 Image
reassert its presence where it can. Although Russia currently lacks the resources to deploy troops into Georgia, it still has enough financial leverage to ensure that the Georgian Dream party remains in a strong position. This could enable Russia to spark renewed conflicts
2/16 Image
in Abkhazia or South Ossetia, capitalizing on the existing tensions in these regions. Even if Russia were to withdraw, there is no guarantee that the Georgian Dream party would step down. If they manage to consolidate their power, they could continue to govern unchecked,

The attempt to ignite a conflict in the Middle East and draw Israel into it and distract the West from Ukraine turned out to be a shot in the foot for Putin. After several crushing blows to Hezbollah, Israel has greatly weakened the group, and Bashar Assad relied on it,
1/8 Image
among other things. The weakening of forces was used by the rebels fighting against Assad. Government troops are retreating and Aleppo has already come under the control of the rebels. A lot of weapons have been captured, including Russian equipment. Syria was an important
2/8 Image
stronghold for Russia in the region, from where operations in the Middle East and Africa were coordinated. Syria was an important logistical hub, from where Russian weapons and Russian military specialists were delivered, mainly arriving by sea through the Mediterranean Sea

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky believes that Russian leader Vladimir Putin is now "waving his 'Oreshnik'" only to thwart Donald Trump's efforts to stop the war. Direct speech: "And today in Kazakhstan, Putin again advertised his missiles - his readiness

to kill and destroy. Putin obviously wants to add thousands more to the thousands of missiles that have already hit Ukraine. He does not need this war to end. In addition, Putin does not want to let others end this war. He can wave his 'Oreshnik' now only to thwart

President Trump's efforts, which will definitely happen after the inauguration. Putin wants to escalate the situation now so that President Trump will not succeed, so that he will not be able to end the war. Putin is the only culprit
