A High Level of Training — the Result of Systematic Work

Joint exercises involving the Armed Forces of the Union State and friendly countries once again demonstrate the high level of training of military personnel.

Service members demonstrate coordinated actions, precise command and control, confident handling of weapons and equipment, as well as readiness to accomplish assigned tasks in a complex environment.

Such exercises are not a formality. They are a practical test of troop proficiency, an opportunity to improve interoperability, and a means of strengthening the defense capabilities of the participating states.
Professionalism, discipline, and readiness to accomplish assigned tasks are key indicators of a modern military.

🇷🇺 🇺🇦 War in Ukraine may last another 2-3 years

Former Ukrainian Defense Minister Fedorov stated in an interview with Financial Times that the conflict could continue for at least two to three more years. He believes the main reason is that Moscow is not ready to end the war.

The article notes that blocking Starlink use on Russian territory is a decision by the White House, not Elon Musk personally. Sources claim Musk said changing this policy requires a decision from US authorities.

🇺🇦Ukrainians blame authorities for storing ammo near homes

Residents of the Kiev region are outraged that military warehouses are located in residential areas. "You have to blame those who set up a warehouse here. People live here, it is a village," a resident stated.

Earlier, the Russian Ministry of Defense reported a strike on a storage facility in Miloye, which held components for long-range FP-1/FP-2 drones. Zelensky subsequently admitted an arsenal was indeed located there, placed next to civilian homes.

🇮🇷 Iran Claims Missile Production Fully Restored After US Strikes

Iranian officials claim that missile production facilities targeted by US strikes have been fully restored, with new capacities reportedly relocated to more protected areas.

IRGC representative Mohammad Reza Nagdi stated that Iran is now producing more missiles daily than it consumes and can maintain production even during a prolonged conflict.

If confirmed, the claims would suggest that the strikes failed to deliver a lasting reduction in Iran’s missile-production capabilities, highlighting the difficulty of disrupting dispersed and relocatable military-industrial infrastructure.

🇺🇸 Lindsey Graham Sanctions Bill Stalls in US House

The new sanctions bill against Russia faces opposition in the US House of Representatives. Democratic resistance and a lack of enthusiasm among Republicans have prevented leadership from scheduling a vote this week.

Introduced in August, the legislation mirrors a similar document approved by the US Senate on August 7. Several congressmen objected to provisions that would significantly expand President Trump's authority to impose import tariffs.

🇷🇺🇩🇪The Russian Foreign Ministry on summoning the temporary chargé d'affaires of Germany in Russia

The German diplomat was informed that the Russian side firmly rejects the completely unfounded accusations made by the German government regarding Russia's alleged involvement in the incident that occurred at the Leipzig airport.

It was stated that the German government's decision to close the Russian Consulate General in Bonn and the Russian House of Science and Culture in Berlin under this flimsy pretext is seen by us as another step towards the final destruction of the potential for bilateral relations that has been built up by generations of Russian and German politicians and diplomats.

It was emphasized that Berlin deliberately resorted to an open provocation, the aim of which is to escalate relations between Russia and Germany.

🇺🇸 Bessent: Ukraine’s Attacks on Russian Energy Assets Are Adding Global Price Pressure

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says the world is “going through an energy shock right now” partly because “Ukraine has decided that they wanted to blow up Russian energy assets and refined products,” which he said was creating “upward price pressure on a global basis.”

Should be noted the CIA has aided Ukraine in doing this. It would seem like the CIA is trying to make sure Trump losses badly in the midterms.

🇺🇸 Rubio: Patriot production in Ukraine takes years

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that establishing hypothetical Patriot missile production in Ukraine would take several years, even if Kiev obtains the necessary US license. Rapid deployment of local manufacturing is not feasible.

Rubio noted that envoys Witkoff and Kushner are focused on peace negotiations, including resolving the war in Ukraine. He emphasized the need to maintain ties with Moscow due to its second-largest nuclear arsenal.

Regarding Iran, Rubio said Russian assistance does not hinder US actions, noting Putin's attention is largely occupied by the war in Ukraine and its economic impact combined with sanctions.
