🇮🇳🇨🇦India asks Canada to recall 41 diplomats

🔽 Over the past few weeks, relations between the two countries have been strained by Canada's accusation of India of killing a Sikh separatist leader on Canadian soil.

✍️A brief overview of the situation:

🟠 On June 18, Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a separatist leader who wanted to separate an independent Sikh state called Khalistan from India, was killed in his truck in the parking lot of a Sikh temple in the western Canadian city of Surrey by 34 gunshot wounds.

🟠 Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said that "credible allegations" of a possible link between Indian agents and the assassination of Khalistan activist Hardeep Nijjar were passed on to New Delhi "several weeks ago."

🟠 India rejected the accusation as "absurd" and denied any involvement in Nijjar's death. It also accused Canada of harboring "extremists and terrorists" who "threaten India's sovereignty and territorial integrity."

🤷‍♂️Since Canada has many more diplomats in Delhi than India has in Ottawa, the latter has asked Canada for parity in its diplomatic missions. This kind of tension could negatively affect the strategic partnership between the two countries, and the West in general.

Situation on the frontlines as of the end of the day on October 5, 2023

▶️ On the Belarusian, Siverskyi and Bilhorod directions — no changes.

▶️ On the Svatove direction — the newly arrived army at the 25th section is trying to regain the initiative by probing our defense. The enemy is trying to attack east of Makiivka.

▶️ On the Bakhmut direction — heavy fighting is taking place behind the railroad east of Andriivka, still unchanged on the map, although the Ukrainian Armed Forces are making progress there. The area around Bohdanivka has been updated. In addition, the area of Spirne-Vesele has been clarified, as the enemy has been gradually gobbling up territory there in recent months. In general, this area is still being clarified.


▶️ On the Avdiivka direction — the enemy's attempts to recapture positions near Pervomaiske were unsuccessful. Fighting continues in Marinka and north of the city. As a reminder, the active phase of the battle for Marinka has been going on for 20 months. The line of contact south of Novomykhailivka is also being clarified.

▶️ On the Berdiansk direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Zaporizhzhia direction — the ruzzians are deploying more reserves in Novoprokopivka and trying to hold on to the heights near Verbove. The situation is very dynamic, although there are sometimes lulls as both sides are exhausted from heavy fighting.

▶️ On the Tavria direction — no changes.

🗂 Analytical note. In general, the situation on the entire frontline is stable. In some places we are slipping, and in some places the enemy is slipping. On the unpleasant side, the number of attacks on us far beyond the contact line is growing. This is due to the modernization of firepower and reconnaissance equipment. On the 5th of October, the f**kers attacked civilians during a memorial service for a soldier killed in the village of Groza in Kharkiv region. At least 51 villagers were killed. We remind you that russia and its people are Ukraine's existential enemy. For them, any Ukrainian from 0 to 99+ years of age is an enemy, while we, due to the humanity of our Western partners (who do not die in the treebelts), cannot give a symmetrical response.

🇱🇹Scandal in Lithuania: President Gitanas Nausėda was not informed about the training of the Commander-in-Chief in Muscovy

👤 Valdemaras Rupšys, a general, concealed the fact that in 1985-1989 he studied at the Novocherkassk Higher Military School.

✍️«The Defense Ministry did not provide this information when it submitted his candidacy to the president. The President was informed about Rupšys' training later <...> The President's opinion of the Chief of the General Staff is based on Rupšys' more than 30 years of service in Lithuania,» the Presidential Chancellery told the BNS news agency.

🪖Laurinas Kasciunas, chairman of the parliamentary committee on national security and defense, also says he was unaware of this fact.

💬«In 2019, when the procedure for the appointment of the Minister of Defense was underway, the committee considered his candidacy, but we did not know about this fact, and the resume did not mention it <...> I think it should have been mentioned. I don't think it would have affected the outcome of the vote, but there should be no white spots in the biography of people in such positions, because it can make them vulnerable,» the official said.
