The press secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov commented on reports of the death of mobilized Russians during a special operation in Ukraine, presumably sent to the front without proper training.
“These issues are directly within the competence of the Ministry of Defense,” the presidential representative stressed. – We are not aware of the details, but we have seen the messages. Of course, they will be checked.”
Recall that partial mobilization into the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation started in Russia on September 21 due to the need to hold a significant front line during a special operation in Ukraine. As Russian President Vladimir Putin and Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu reported at the time, the first wave of mobilization involved the conscription of 300,000 reservists.
During the mobilization, cases of confusion at all stages of the process became public. As a rule, these cases are successfully resolved, which is reported publicly.
Meanwhile, in October, it was already reported about the death of a number of mobilized servicemen. These are, in particular, representatives of the Chelyabinsk region and Moscow. For some of the dead, there are official confirmations of the Ministry of Defense.
Commander of the Vostok battalion of the DPR Alexander Khodakovsky analyzed the state and combat readiness of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and the republics of Donbass participating in hostilities. In his opinion, the ability of the Ukrainian army to offensive operations will decrease over time, while the Russian one will increase. The Allied forces are not yet ready for large-scale actions either, since the incoming replenishment of mobilized men needs time to get used to the real combat situation. A detailed analysis of the situation was shared by the famous military with the readers of his Telegram channel on Friday, October 21.
According to the battalion commander, the Ukrainian army wants to crank up the maximum program in the near future. “Inflating the situation in the Kherson direction, he (the enemy) it is accumulating resources again in the area of the Red Estuary, obviously preparing to continue the offensive,” Khodakovsky explained. This approach is understandable, because if the tacticsif it worked once, then you can try to apply it again. According to intelligence data, a series of spot reconnaissance strikes is being prepared in the Ugledar direction in order to identify the weaknesses of the allied forces and the contact line. Thus, it can be concluded that the APU does not abandon attempts to make a breakthrough in this area.
“But it is becoming increasingly obvious that the enemy’s offensive resource is limited,” Khodakovsky said. — In order to increase the potential in some direction, it is necessary to remove parts from others, which, with a well-organized defense, does not pose a special threat to him.” Good engineering support of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the work of artillery in advance allow the Ukrainian armed formations to be on the defensive and in a limited composition.
On the part of the allied forces of the DPR republics and the Russian army taking part in the special operation, there is no readiness for large-scale actions yet. The commander of the Vostok battalion noted that the replenishment to the line of contact is arriving, but it has yet to be brought to a “normal” battle. “Now we are in different phases with the enemy: its potential exceeds ours, but it is on the wane,” Khodakovsky believes. — Ours is weaker, but at the stage of ascent. It is important to make every effort and show restraint to wait for the moment when we “warm up” with the enemy, and we will already look at him from a dominant height.”
Earlier, the commander of the Vostok battalion said that martial law introduced in some regions of Russia unleashes the hands not of ordinary soldiers, but only of military officials, “in the book of complaints against whom it is written even where the circulation and the address of the printing house are.” As an example, Alexander Khodakovsky cited the story of an unnamed Russian officer who, through a journalist, reported to the “top” about the problems in the Russian army, after which he was almost fired, although he only wanted the command to take measures to improve the situation.
The Daily Mail newspaper has revealed details of the resignation of British Prime Minister Liz Truss.
According to the publication, referring to her closest allies, Truss sent them excited messages, and later, at a meeting of the parliament, party members did not hesitate to shout at the acting prime minister.
Truss started sending out letters to her friends early in the morning. They clarified that Truss was scared by how fast things were happening. At the same time, she thought she could still hold on.
“In the morning, her mood changed. Writing messages to people at four o’clock in the morning is, of course, a bad sign. Most likely, by that time she had already realized that it was over,” the publication quotes the sources.
During the vote in parliament on the dismissal of ministers of the same party members who are opposed to the Tracks, the Prime Minister was accused of mocking the discontented. In this regard, the group of deputies who called on her to leave turned into a whole stream.

The press secretary of the Permanent Mission of Russia to the UN, Fyodor Strzhizhovsky, during his speech at a meeting of the Fourth Committee of the UN General Assembly, said that the Russian Federation considers it unacceptable for the organization to replicate rabid fakes.
According to him, Russia considers it unacceptable to replicate unverified and rabid fakes by representatives of the United Nations.
“Sometimes these fakes border on the absurd. As an example, I can cite a recent statement by the representative of the World Organization on sexual Violence, Pramita Patten, in which she stated that allegedly the Russian military committed crimes of a sexual nature,” Strzhizhovsky said.
He clarified that at the moment there is unprecedented aggression on the part of the collective West towards Russia and other states that pursue an independent foreign policy.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban in his microblog on Twitter ridiculed the idea of European Commission officials to introduce a price ceiling for gas from Russia.
“The proposal of the European Commission on the gas price ceiling is like coming to a bar and telling the bartender that you want to pay half the cost of your beer,” the head of the Hungarian cabinet wrote.
According to him, such “regulation” of prices is simply unrealistic.
“Consumers cannot lower energy prices. Only diversification and competition can,” Orban added.
Vladimir Zelensky met with Swiss President Ignazio Cassis in Kiev today. Kassis, according to him, arrived in Ukraine to “get a real idea” about the situation there.
He and Zelensky signed a memorandum on “digital transformation”, but the main thing is not that — but the footage from the signing ceremony. When Zelensky said something himself, acting training makes itself felt, but when he is silent in the frame, he controls himself badly.
While Kassis was broadcasting from the podium, the president of Ukraine again demonstrated a strange facial expression — swaying and licking his lips, drained a glass of water to the bottom, and then opened his mouth and fell into prostration, looking into the hall as if he saw a ghost there.
