#BREAKING Ukraine’s Military Intelligence (GUR):

Kamikaze UAV strikes targeted a Russian aircraft factory where Kh-59 missiles were produced.

On October 1, 2023, as a result of an attack on the Smolensk Aviation Plant, the production process of Kh-59 missiles of various modifications was disrupted.

According to confirmed data, three out of four UAVs hit the target, causing significant damage to the production facilities of the military enterprise of the aggressor state.

The Kh-59 missile (in the Kh-59MK2 modification) of the "air-to-surface" class with a range of up to 280 km is one of those with which the Russian Aerospace Forces most often fire at military and civilian objects in Ukraine.

Chernihiv, Sumy, Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions suffer the most from the use of such weapons.

Taiwan prosecutors are investigating accusations that people tried to interfere in the island's submarine program and that details about it were leaked, in what would be a serious breach of security.

Huang Shu-kuang, who is leading the program, told local media last week that lawmakers, whom he did not name, had made it difficult for the program to purchase critical equipment, and that a contractor who had failed to obtain a bid forwarded information to China.

Taiwan's Supreme Prosecutors Office, in a short statement, said Huang's accusations had attracted "great attention" given the national security and defence implications.

If we pull the plug on Ukraine, it will be 10 times worse than in Afghanistan.

POLITICO:

Biden administration deeply concerned about corruption in Ukraine.

The Biden administration is far more worried about corruption in Ukraine than it publicly admits, according to a new report by POLITICO.

A "sensitive but unclassified" version of the long-term U.S. plan lays out numerous steps Washington is taking to help Kyiv root out malfeasance and otherwise reform an array of Ukrainian sectors.

It stresses that corruption could cause Western allies to abandon Ukraine's fight against Russia's invasion, and that Kyiv cannot put off the anti-graft effort.

The confidential version of the document warns that "perceptions of high-level corruption" could "undermine the Ukrainian public's and foreign leaders' confidence in the war-time government."
