The Russians launched a large-scale offensive on Avdiivka, Donetsk region. 3 battalions (about 2,000 people) were involved in the attack. In recent days, military positions and residential areas have been subjected to constant shelling. 1,600 residents remain in the city. The Russians are trying to surround Avdiivka, advancing from the north and south.
***** The Russians have not launched long-range missile strikes since September 21. Apparently, they are stockpiling missiles for the winter to bomb the energy infrastructure.
**** Explosions are reported on Russian warships near Sevastopol, which are carriers of Kalibr cruise missiles.
The gas pipeline and telecommunication cable between Estonia and Finland, which are laid along the bottom of the Gulf of Finland, were damaged. The damaged cable is located at a depth of 70 m, and the gas pipeline is located at a depth of 60 m in the Finnish economic zone. It is assumed that the Russians may be involved in the damage, as revenge for Finland joining NATO. The damage was done neither by a diver nor by a small underwater robot, but rather severe. Repairs may take several months.
The head of the National Police of Ukraine said that probably someone from the local area gave the coordinates of the cafe in the village of Groza because the strike was very accurate. The village was under Russian occupation for some time. A memorial service was held in the cafe for a soldier who died earlier and was a soldier in the "Aidar" battalion. The son of the deceased decided to hold a memorial service for his father because it was previously impossible to do so under the occupation. Perhaps one of the locals informed the Russians that there would be a commemoration of the soldier of "Aidar" battalion and the Russians hit it very accurate with a rocket. Everything really looks like a tip-off.

From the territory of the Gaza Strip in Israel, Islamists fired rockets into the territory of Israel, and Hamas militants suddenly attacked the south of Israel. It is reported that more than 2,000 rockets were fired from the Gaza Strip (the Arabs report about 5,000 rokets). Militants also drove jeeps into Jewish settlements, shot passers-by, took hostages and military personnel. A tank was shoted and damaged with a drone and a Jewish tank battalion was captured. Israeli forces began retaliating with airstrikes on the Gaza Strip. Mobilization of reservists announced in Israel. They say that this is the beginning of a war.
The Russians shot up a shop-cafe in the village of Groza, Kupiansk district, Kharkiv region, 50 people had been killed, among them a 6-year-old child. There was a memorial service for a deceased fellow villager in the cafe. 330 residents lived in this village. One person from each family, from each yard was present at the commemorative dinner. It is reported that the Russians hit the cafe with an Iskander missile. The hit was very accurate, so it is suspected that someone from the locals directed the Russian missile to a cafe where there was a crowd of people.
At one of the roadblocks on the way out of Kharkiv, a skirmish broke out between a combined police unit and a group of armed men in military uniforms over a vehicle inspection.
On September 29, 4 SUVs drove up to one of the checkpoints. Men in military uniform came out of them and threatened with firearms the entire assembled police unit, which included policemen, border guards, national guardsmen, and a representative of the military law enforcement service. They demanded an end to checks and inspections of their vehicles while passing through checkpoints. After a brief argument, they drove away from the scene of the incident.
An investigative team went to the scene and documented the incident.
Last Friday, our troops hit the headquarters of the Russian Black Sea Fleet in Sevastopol with two missiles, and reported that the commander of the Russian Black Sea Fleet Viktor Sokolov was killed as a result of the attack. Yesterday, on Russian television, a military video conference with Defense Minister Shoigu was shown on the big screen, and below it with Admiral Sokolov. Russian mass media often lie, but ours also often pass off wishful thinking as reality.
