🇮🇱🇵🇸Israeli authorities consider a video of Israeli hostages distributed by the radical Palestinian organization Hamas to be “cruel psychological propaganda.” This is stated in a statement from the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The office emphasized that the Israeli authorities "will do everything to return the abducted and missing people home."

🇺🇦 After his visit to the United States, Zelensky appeared to be in a "sour" mood, as reported by TIME magazine, citing sources within the president's inner circle.

Zelensky seemed to have lost his usual optimism, sense of humor, and the tendency to liven up a military briefing with jokes. "Now he comes in, gets the news, gives orders, and leaves," says one of his longtime team members.
Another member of his inner circle reveals that Zelensky feels abandoned by his Western allies. They have left him with the means to survive the war but not to win it.

Nevertheless, Zelensky remains resolute in his commitment to continue the fight, and his "faith in Ukraine's ultimate victory over Russia has taken a form that worries some of his advisers." It has become "unshakable" and borders on messianic. "He's deceiving himself. We have no options. We are not winning. But try telling him that," one of the president's closest aides told the publication.

ℹ️Head of the Presidential Office, Andriy Yermak, initially recommended reading this article in his Telegram channel, but later deleted the post, according to reports.

🇺🇦In winter, one of the “senior generals” in Ukraine, who is responsible for the offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, will be fired, Time reports, citing one of Zelensky’s assistants.

Another point from the TIME magazine article about the situation in Ukraine.

After Zelensky fired all regional military commissars, mobilization in Ukraine slowed down significantly, a senior military officer said in a comment to TIME.

Dismissed persons also proved difficult to replace because the reputation of the military registration and enlistment offices was damaged.

“Who needs this job? It’s like putting a sign on your back that says: corrupt official,” the officer said.

The publication writes that the losses of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, which the West estimates at more than 100 000 people, “so greatly undermined the ranks of the Ukrainian armed forces” that recruiting stations were forced to recruit increasingly older people for military service.

As a result, the average age of a Ukrainian soldier increased to approximately 43 years.

“There are now grown men in the army, and they are not so healthy to begin with. It is Ukraine. Not Scandinavia,” says Zelensky’s close aide.

The publication "Strana" suggests that we are talking about the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valery Zaluzhny, the commander of the Ground Forces Alexander Syrsky or the commander of the operational-strategic group of troops "Tavria" Alexander Tarnavsky.

There was no official information about the upcoming layoffs.

🇺🇸🇸🇾🇷🇺 The USA has committed a blatant violation of international law and Syria's sovereignty by conducting strikes on its territory, as stated by Russia's permanent representative to the UN, Vasily Nebenzya, during a session of the UN Security Council.

"On October 26, at the orders of President Joe Biden, United States forces conducted strikes on two locations near the city of Bu-Kemal. Washington claimed that the attack was carried out under the so-called right to self-defense in an American manner, thousands of kilometers away from U.S. territory. Such illegitimate actions by Washington are nothing but a blatant violation of Syria's sovereignty and international law," he said, emphasizing that in the midst of the Israel-Palestine conflict escalation, such actions carry extremely dangerous consequences and may provoke "armed escalation on a regional scale."
