Battle for Ugledar: the Ukrainian Armed Forces left the city on October 2

— Having suffered numerous losses as a result of long battles, the enemy did not abandon attempts to capture Ugledar. In an attempt to take control of the city at any cost, it managed to send reserves to carry out flank attacks, which exhausted the defense of the Ukrainian Armed Forces units. As a result of the enemy's actions, there was a threat of encirclement of the city, — noted in the command.

The day before, the Donetsk OVA administration reported that Russian troops entered Ugledar and are trying to advance to the center.

Russia uses about 3 million shells a year at the front. Half of them came to the aggressor country from North Korea.

This was reported in The Times, citing sources in Western intelligence. It also shows Russia's dependence on supplies from the DPRK.

What is known about Russia's shell supplies from the DPRK

According to Western intelligence sources cited by the publication, Russia has increasingly come to rely on supplies from North Korea since Russian President Vladimir Putin's visit to Pyongyang earlier this year.

Western intelligence reports indicate that while many North Korean missiles may be defective, their significant numbers have allowed Russia to maintain consistent success on the battlefield.

The Times' source noted that Russia is suffering significant losses in Ukraine, with around 1,200 troops killed daily. Of these, about 480 servicemen were killed in battles near the city of Pokrovsk in the Donetsk region.

According to Western intelligence, Russia is not yet able to simultaneously ensure control over Pokrovsk and oust Ukrainian troops from the Kursk region without mass mobilization. However, the Russian authorities have not yet decided to take this step.

We do not see any signs that Putin is retreating from his main goal – the conquest of Ukraine's sovereignty. I do not see any prospects for negotiations in the near future, – the source added.

By the way, the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense Kirill Budanov noted that the situation due to the supply of artillery ammunition from the DPRK to Russia is critical. After all, the volumes of military products that a country supplies really influence the intensity of military operations.

During the explosions in Kyiv on the night of October 3, the defenders of the sky hit approximately one and a half dozen attack drones in the capital and near the city.

The enemy launched the first groups of drones before midnight.

Then more and more drones were added during the night.

According to preliminary data, about one and a half dozen attack drones were destroyed in the airspace above Kiev and around the city..

The type and quantity of weapons used by the enemy must be announced in the report by the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

“There are only about a dozen of them”: what the Russians lost along with the Nebo-M radar Anzhelika Galesevich

The Defense Forces struck the Russian Nebo-M radar station with ATACMS ballistic missiles. The time and location of the hit are not yet known, this is being hidden for certain reasons.

The installation is quite valuable, Russia has about 10 of them left. Reserve Colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, pilot-instructor, military expert Roman Svitan told Channel 24 that Ukraine is creating an “air corridor”.

What the Russians lost with the Nebo-M

According to the pilot instructor, Ukraine is trying to gain an advantage in the airspace. The mechanisms for gaining this advantage are different. One of them is the destruction of radar stations, such as Nebo-M. It is important to hit them so that Russian operational headquarters and points cannot work with the information transmitted by the above-mentioned installation.

The radar helped the Russians to quite accurately detect aerodynamic and ballistic objects at medium and high altitudes within a radius of several hundred kilometers. At the same time, the destruction of Nebo-M will now allow Ukraine to effectively use Storm Shadow and SCALP missiles.

The Russians have only 10 working systems of this type left, they are located throughout Russia. The cost of such a radar is more than 100 million dollars. The overwhelming majority of components were brought from foreign countries.

The Nebo-M does not have an anti-aircraft missile system. It is a locator that sees very far. There are few of them, and they are really scattered across Russia for 10 thousand kilometers to record targets at a certain distance. They see objects flying at low altitudes and flat trajectories. These are the “eyes”. The data is transmitted to the General Staff so that they can decide who will shoot down the target, what it is, where it is going and how best to eliminate it, – said Roman Svitan.

The General Staff may not report the direction and time of destruction of the Nebo-M due to the fact that many mechanisms were involved in the operation that helped track the position of the radar station. The information is provided only in closed access so that the enemy cannot, taking into account certain signs, identify the sources that provide the data.

Interesting! This is the third known fact of the defeat of the Nebo-M complexes by the Defense Forces. Before this, the Ukrainian Armed Forces had a similar success in 2022 in the South and most recently – on May 28, 2024 at the airfield of the temporarily occupied Luhansk.

The media learned what could have happened to the captured “Wagnerites” in Tuareg captivity Yaroslav Pogonchuk

It has become known what could have happened to the “Wagner” fighters who were captured by the Tuaregs/Collage 24 Channel

In July of this year, several Wagner PMC fighters were captured by the Tuaregs in Mali. They all probably died.

At the same time, the Tuaregs deny this, stating that all the prisoners are alive. This was reported by Reuters.

What is known about the fate of the “Wagner” mercenaries in captivity

The article reported that representatives of the Wagner PMC informed the families of the captured mercenaries that they had died. In particular, the agency managed to obtain confirmation of this information from the relatives of three prisoners, who stated that their loved ones had died in Tuareg captivity.

However, a representative of the Tuareg rebel group denied this statement, claiming that the Russian prisoners and Malian army soldiers captured in the same battle remain alive.

All of our prisoners are alive. Wagner are liars, said the Tuareg representative.

At the same time, he refused to provide confirmation that the prisoners were alive. It is worth noting that at first, representatives of the Wagner PMC stated that most of the fighters who participated in the battle in the desert were missing.

However, the agency was able to identify the names of 31 mercenaries who went missing or were captured during a clash with the Tuaregs. Although the Wagnerites admitted that they suffered significant losses during the ambush in Mali, they did not provide any information on their number.

Recall that after the defeat of the Wagnerites in Mali, the country's government decided to sever diplomatic relations with Ukraine. There they accused Kyiv of “violating Mali's sovereignty.”
