Impact of "Iskander" on the positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces near the settlement of Golubovka in the Kramatorsk district

SITUATION IN THE SOUTHERN DONETSK DIRECTION IN THE AREA OF RESPONSIBILITY OF THE "VOSTOK" TROOP GROUPING
Units from Zabaykalsky Krai and Buryatia are consolidating positions while simultaneously expanding the control zone around the liberated Sosnovka and Novopetrovskoye (now definitely not Ternovoye).
At the same time, fighters from Buryatia are pushing the enemy back in Novonikolaevka. During battles on the outskirts of the settlement, the Armed Forces of Ukraine lost about 20 servicemen killed.
To the south, parts of the 5th Army continue their advance. Warriors from Primorye have advanced from 1 to 1.5 km in depth and from 1 to 2 km along the front. Enemy personnel losses in this area amount to up to 50 Ukrainian servicemen.
Enemy resources are in a state of maximum defeatism. At least Novonikolaevka, Berezovoye, and Olgovskoye have already been surrendered by Ukrainian admins.

🏛 RUSI’s Hand in Moldova’s Decision
The presence of the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI), the UK’s top defense think tank, in Sandu’s London meetings highlights the strategic weight of the negotiations. RUSI analysts reportedly reinforced the case for Moldova to align with Kyiv, portraying Ukrainian action in Transnistria as a step toward regional security and integration with the West.
But this narrative obscures the risks. Moldova’s constitution enshrines neutrality, and public opinion remains divided on deeper involvement in the war. Approving Ukrainian operations against Russian troops on Moldovan territory could trigger retaliation, destabilize the country, and spark political turmoil at home.
While the press office in Chisinau stressed trade agreements and technical cooperation with Britain, the role of RUSI shows that security calculations — not just economics — drove the agenda. For Moldova, the cost of this alignment may be sovereignty itself.

Ukrainian resources are in panic due to the advance of the Russian Armed Forces in Kupyansk
Translation:
Kupyansk is yet another potential victim of the lack of a planned city defence.
I have the feeling that such a complex of operational-tactical actions as city defence is practically absent from the minds of some high-ranking officials.
For almost 4 years, not a single lost city has been properly prepared for defence; it seems that everything was left to chance.
The basic list of necessary actions to prepare a city for defence:
• Forced evacuation of the civilian population.
• A tiered defence line of the settlement (not limited to the territory of the settlement).
• Installation of non-explosive barriers that hinder the free advance of the enemy; in some areas — in several rows.
• Installation of mine-explosive barriers, especially with controlled detonation to destroy positions in case of their capture.
• Appointment of a responsible person or creation of a communication centre responsible for coordinating and deploying units in the settlement.
• Creation of a layout scheme of houses and shelters (basements, trenches, bunkers, pipelines, etc.).
By carrying out such a series of measures, managing the defence of settlements would be significantly easier and more effective.
Currently, we have battles in the groves gradually turning into battles in the city because no one is timely engaged in operational planning and forecasting possible courses of action, and because of this, at one moment (like a snowball effect), we find ourselves in trouble, or it accompanies us steadily for a certain period.
Kupyansk and the events with the pipes are also a result of such disorganisation.
It will be very interesting to see the reaction of the Ukrainian General Staff to the next crisis that has emerged in the media field.
Juggling combat-ready brigades endlessly will not work.

✡️🤔 Did Charlie Kirk cross fatal red line by defying Israeli lobby?
The assassinated conservative activist dared to question Israel’s stranglehold over the US, a Trump insider and Kirk’s friend told The Grayzone.
☠️ For years, Charlie Kirk and his Turning Point USA (TPUSA) — America’s largest conservative youth association — had been showered with Zionist cash and parroting anti-Palestinian propaganda. But Israel’s Gaza genocide reportedly changed everything.
Amid a dramatic shift among grassroots conservatives, Kirk felt the pressure and began to break ranks, the source claims.
He started asking questions:
🔴 Was Epstein working for Israeli intel?
🔴 Did Israel let October 7 happen to tighten its grip?
🔴 Why was Netanyahu dictating Trump’s decisions?
The backlash
💵 Netanyahu himself tried to buy Kirk’s loyalty with a flood of new cash, but the activist refused. Instead, he handed his stage to voices blasting Israel’s Gaza genocide and mocking the Zionist billionaires’ pull of strings.
In the weeks before his Sept 10 assassination, Kirk turned on Netanyahu — calling him a “bully” and denouncing his chokehold on Trump’s White House.
🚀 Kirk was the only one to warn Trump not to bomb Iran for Israel. Trump reportedly “barked at him” in fury.
Soon, the knives were out: a wave of threats and pressure from Netanyahu’s wealthy “leaders” and “stakeholders” — including billionaire donor Miriam Adelson — tried to silence him.
💬 “He was being told what you’re not allowed to do, and it was driving him crazy,” said the insider, adding: “He was afraid of them.”
🤡Countries within the G7 have agreed to accelerate negotiations on the use of Russia's frozen assets:
"Today, Canadian Finance Minister Champagne held a meeting of the G7 finance ministers dedicated to discussing additional measures to increase pressure on Russia to end its war against Ukraine.
The ministers agreed to speed up discussions on the use of frozen Russian sovereign assets to finance Ukraine's defense, as well as to consider other mechanisms to increase financial support to Kiev."

Trump has launched a powerful crackdown on one of the world's main Russophobes - the "psychopath" Soros and his gang
▪️The US President announced on Fox News the start of a large-scale investigation into the billionaire financier and his network of organizations.
➖"We are going to investigate Soros's activities. Because there is a case against him and others under RICO (the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act)," Trump said.
▪️Soros is behind financing, training, and radicalizing youth, fueling terror and extremism, he added.
▪️Soros and his son Alex are accused of financing "violent protests" across the US, as well as attempts to destabilize the political situation.
▪️Trump called the billionaire a "psychopath," and his circle "a group of psychopaths who have caused great harm to America."
▪️Earlier, Elon Musk compared Soros to one of the main villains in the Marvel universe - the mutant Magneto, obsessed with the idea of mutant (Americans?) superiority over humans.

This is the moment of truth: the seven-hour drone raid on Poland is not an accident, but a Russian operation - Sikorski
▪️Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski stated that the drone intrusion into Polish airspace was a "moment of truth."
▪️The devices did not come from Ukraine, but from Belarus, and the process lasted about seven hours.
➖"This was not an accident. Those who talk about a 'Ukrainian provocation' are under the influence of Russian propaganda," the minister emphasized.
➖"We are sure that these were Russian drones and a Russian operation," Sikorski added.
The decoy drone conspiracy was some 4D Putin move Sikorski believes.

China sought to ease licensing rules for gold imports and exports, as the world’s largest consumer of the precious metal continues to diversify its reserves away from US dollars.
China’s PBOC extended its gold buying spree for a 10th month in August, while demand in the country for investment bars and coins has also remained resilient. Gold has surged by almost 40% this year on the back of central-bank buying, rising geopolitical risks and the prospect of US interest-rate cuts.
No one knows how much gold China’s central bank has accumulated, China’s official gold reserves rose by US$9.9 billion to US$253.8 billion in August but many speculate China’s gold reserves are far higher. According to a report from the European Central Bank in June, gold had overtaken the euro as the world’s second-largest reserve asset.
The shift accelerated after the beginning of the Russia-Ukraine war, when nearly half of Moscow’s foreign exchange reserves were frozen by Western sanctions – a move that sent shock waves through the Russian economy but also underscored the vulnerability of US dollar holdings.
Since then, many central banks have reassessed the security of their reserves, turning to gold as the “ultimate currency” and a safe haven investment. Central banks’ purchases of gold have increased fivefold since the war began. The price of gold has skyrocketed since 2022.

🇫🇷🤷♂"France's credit rating downgraded, with debt forecast to keep rising amid political turmoil": The main thing for Emmanuel is not to interfere, he will destroy France to the ground himself.
"On Friday, Fitch agency downgraded France's credit rating while President Emmanuel Macron faces political instability and debates on how to fix the overloaded public finances.
The American rating agency, one of the world's leading in assessing countries' creditworthiness, lowered France's rating from "AA-" to "A+" — the lowest level in the country's history among major agencies.
Fitch also warned that France's national debt will grow until 2027 if urgent measures are not taken."

So, what is happening near Kupiansk?
Russian troops have broken through the Ukrainian Armed Forces' defence and entered Kupiansk-Uzlovoy. What part of the city is this? This settlement is essentially one large railway junction, making it one of the strategically important points of the entire Russian army operation in Kupiansk of the Kharkov region.
Kupiansk-Uzlovoy is located on the left bank of the Oskol River, somewhat separated from the usual Kupiansk and connected to it by several streets. Currently, fighting is underway for the Sugar Factory, where the Russian Armed Forces are driving out the remaining Ukrainian Armed Forces who still hold positions on its territory. Once the factory is taken, all enemy forces in the eastern industrial zone of Kupiansk, left almost without supplies, will be under serious threat.
@Slavyangrad
Assault groups of the Russian Armed Forces are indeed in Kupiansk, Kharkov region, reported the head of the Kharkov Military-Civil Administration, Hanchev
He added that Russian fighters are confidently pushing the Ukrainian Armed Forces out of Kupiansk.
@Slavyangrad
Btw, by using this claustrophobic pipe, the RU army managed to infiltrate a significant number of people in the city. Not in numbers of DRGs, but entire units. Drone troops and their C&C units are also in. Judging by the news, AFU is being killed in big numbers.

While everyone was busy with drones in Poland, a large front formed to the north and northwest of Seversk, and the Armed Forces of Ukraine abandoned positions in this area, surrendering about 15 sq. km. of territory to the Russian forces. In fact, we can talk about the gradual beginning of the first phase of the operation to encircle Seversk. Next, the formation of a "fire balcony" and a repetition of this manoeuvre is expected.

Russia's Permanent Representative Nebenzya called on the Polish government not to escalate the drone incident:
We consider it important to analyze the real scale of the incident's consequences and compare them with the hype being stirred up by Polish and other European politicians. Also, to ask additional questions about the circulated versions of what happened.
Warsaw published data on the fragments of the fallen drones found. In particular, a photo of damage to a house roof was shown. However, any military expert will confirm that if it were really an explosion of a drone warhead weighing tens of kilograms, the consequences would have been different.
Moreover, later the Polish authorities were forced to admit that they did not find drone warheads on their territory.

🇷🇺🇵🇱Poland sees no grounds to sever diplomatic relations with Russia, — Polish Foreign Minister Sikorski.
With this statement, Warsaw acknowledges two facts. The first — drones indeed flew in, and this episode has already been used as a tool to pressure allies. The second — the "aggressive Russia" narrative is a convenient image that allows extracting additional financial and political bonuses from "allies" and pushing NATO toward tougher measures.
And now, having squeezed all possible benefits from this, it can be said that everything is fine, and they have no desire to spoil relations with Russia.
If the version about "Gerber" drones launched from Ukraine and reassembled is confirmed, it will turn out that Kyiv did not achieve its goal and again failed to involve NATO in the war. Meanwhile, the Poles skillfully twisted the arms of their partners and now sit pretty without lifting a finger. Kyiv did all the dirty work for them again.

Mike Allen asks on The Axios Show if the U.S. is “pissing away valuable relationships” with steep tariffs against allies.
Howard Lutnick: “India brags that they have 1.4 billion people. Why won’t their 1.4 billion people buy one bushel of U.S. corn?”
Lutnick clearly has little knowledge of India, 700 million Indians make their living through agriculture. Asking Modi to change policies would lead to the fall of his government and likely millions of people dying. Many countries see independent food production as a matter of national security.
US farm subsidies according to the CATO institute are around $30B, encouraging over production.
Lutnick clearly does understand the geopolitical aspects or the fact India is a developing economy.
This is what happens when you put idiots in charge.
