There has never been such a unified position among practically all EU countries. Even those who are less pro-Ukrainian,who sometimes show signs of weakness toward Putin,had no doubts that the next several months will be crucial,perhaps not only for the history and future of Ukraine, but for the whole of Europe. Everyone expects an increase in Russian escalation and provocations on a larger scale.

7 KILOMETERS ON AN ELECTRIC SCOOTER WITH A SEVERED LEG: AN INCREDIBLE RESCUE STORY OF A UKRAINIAN SOLDIER

• During an assault on enemy positions, a Ukrainian soldier engaged in close-quarters combat and eliminated an occupier, but sustained a severe injury himself. Due to significant blood loss, he would lose consciousness every time he tried to stand up.
• An electric scooter became his only chance to escape. The command of the code__9.2 unit delivered the scooter using a heavy-lift drone. Despite his injury, the soldier covered 17 kilometers, reaching speeds of up to 52 km/h.
• Throughout the journey, he was covered by Ukrainian FPV drones, while fiber-optic cables kept getting tangled in the scooter’s wheels, complicating the evacuation. • Ultimately, the soldier managed to reach a location where a fellow soldier picked him up by car.
• "I’m glad I’m still alive," says the defender.

A second Russian Mi-28 helicopter has been destroyed in a week. Ukrainian pilots from the "Aliens" anti-aircraft missile battalion have managed to destroy the second Mi-28 helicopter belonging to the Russian occupiers in a week.

"exceeding this limit causes the Starlink connection to cut out completely, resulting in the loss of the drone."

︀︀He says Ukraine has done tests to determine whether SpaceX is truly facing technical issues, as has been told Kyiv by the US side, or if this is a "deliberate operation. to restrict us, cut us off, and prevent us from defending ourselves and protecting our people, both at the front and among the civilian population."

︀︀He says Ukraine "sent a couple of vehicles equipped with Starlink terminals into European Union territory."

︀︀"They moved at speeds exceeding 180kph, and the Starlink systems worked perfectly. We have the relevant logs and evidence to prove this."

He adds: "The conclusion is clear: the restrictions are in effect within Ukraine but do not apply within the European Union. In other words, this is a planned operation."

After meeting with Emmanuel Macron on Thursday, the Ukrainian president thanked him for keeping his promise. An agreement announced in July called for the production in Ukraine of AASM bombs and SCALP and Aster 30 missiles.

Надія.

That's her name. She lived in Kramatorsk her whole life. She got traumatized during the first modern russian invasion of Ukraine in 2014 and never been the same. And trauma only grew.
Now she is forced to leave. Russians bombed her home. Then russians bombed the home of the relatives she moved in with after. Russians want Hope dead. Russians simply despise the idea of Hope existing in this world.

But Hope is alive.

And Hope was born here, in Ukraine.

What even is this timeline.

"President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Friday waiving new sanctions and tariffs on Russia. The move effectively neutralizes the law by lifting provisions that barred the president from removing sanctions against Russia and preventing a host of new sanctions and penalties from taking effect on Oct. 18 -- the deadline set by the law. "

Local residents gathered on Oct. 17 in front of the city council to demand that Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko step down from his post after over 12 years in office.

“Kyiv without Klitschko,” hundreds of protesters chanted as they took to the streets in central Kyiv, according to Kyiv Independent reporters on the ground. The rally lasted over two hours.

Kyiv’s failure to prepare for the coming winter amid Russian attacks on critical infrastructure, coupled with broader mismanagement, were the main factors that brought people to protest.

The protest comes as Russia intensifies attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure and Kyiv struggles to ensure reliable access to basic utilities and adequate shelter.

The cardboard signs read “Where are the shelters?” “Resign” and “12 years of irresponsibility.” Others mockingly called on Klitschko to “leave Kyiv,” turning his recent advice that residents consider relocating ahead of a difficult winter back on the mayor himself.
