Worth noting, korrespondent.net has compiled its Invasion of Ukraine series into separate months, beginning May 9th, 2023. Linked in the title.
[Korrespondent] 22:01 Partners have raised more than $4 billion to restore Ukraine's energy sector, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said. According to him, Germany, the Netherlands and other countries have announced new contributions in the last month alone.

21:50 The number of victims as a result of the Russian strike on Zaporozhye has risen to 22, the State Emergency Service reported.
21:42 Zelensky reported that he met with Scholz: "We talked about how to bring a fair world closer. The main thing is to maintain unity. Our Peace Formula was created precisely for this, and we held a successful first Peace Summit." In turn, Scholz said that lifting restrictions on strikes deep into Russia "is incompatible with my personal position."
21:05 Denmark has allocated 16 million euros to restore Ukraine's energy sector, the country's Climate Ministry reported. The package is one of the largest on the part of the state. It was announced during a meeting of the G7 working group on Ukraine's energy security.
20:48 Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said that Tehran is allegedly ready to sit down at the table with Europeans and Americans to conduct dialogue and negotiations on ending the war in Ukraine. "We have never approved of Russian aggression against Ukrainian territory," he added.
19:03 Russians have struck the Zaporizhia region and a critical infrastructure facility in Zaporizhia - according to preliminary information, two people were wounded, said the head of the OVA Ivan Fedorov.
18:37 Every second ammunition at the front is of Ukrainian production. If in 2023 the Ukrainian share of ammunition was 18%, then in 2024 - 41%, said Defense Minister Rustem Umerov. He also said that this year Ukraine has increased its long-range capabilities several times. In 2024, the Defense Ministry alone contracted drones for more than UAH 21 billion and ammunition for them for another UAH 9 billion. In total, more than 1 million drones were purchased. In addition, the minister emphasized that Ukraine was the first in the world to introduce the "drone swarm" technology. Over the past year alone, more than 200 targets on enemy territory have been destroyed or damaged.
17:46 The Russian "shahed" has again flown near the Khmelnitsky NPP. According to Energoatom, the flight path indicates that Russia was probably trying to simulate an attack directly on the NPP by sharply deviating from the initial trajectory towards the plant.
17:10 In Omsk, two schoolchildren burned a helicopter at a local airbase. They were promised $20,000 for the arson, Russian media write. The schoolchildren entered the airbase on the evening of September 21, threw a bottle of Molotov cocktail at the Mi-8 helicopter and fled the scene. However, they were soon detained. The teenagers said that they received the task to burn the helicopter via Telegram, and were promised a large sum for the work - however, they were never paid. A few days ago, teenagers burned a helicopter in Noyabrsk.
16:24 According to Forbes, Russia is capable of producing over 500 "shaheeds", 40-50 ballistic and 90-115 cruise missiles per month. The Russian Federation also has a stockpile of 60 North Korean missiles and 55 Kinzhals. The Russians add one or two units to the latter every month.
15:49 Ombudsman Dmitry Lubinets reported that during his visit to Odessa Oblast, he held a meeting with the families of Ukrainian defenders who are in Russian captivity or are missing. More than 400 people joined the meeting, but the ICRC representatives once again did not come, ignoring the official invitation.
15:36 Russians shelled Shakhove in Donetsk Oblast - seven people were wounded, including two children, reported OVA head Vadim Filashkin. The strike damaged 24 private homes, three administrative buildings and a social institution.
14:52 British intelligence reports that Russian troops have advanced in the Kharkov region - west of the village of Peschanoye. They now occupy a small ledge 3.5 km from the Oskol River. The invaders are probably trying to reach the eastern bank of the Oskol River in this way, to use it as a natural defensive barrier and create conditions for future operations, analysts predict.
14:45 Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has stated that it is necessary to lift restrictions on Ukraine's use of long-range weapons. According to her, "the most important red line has already been crossed - this happened when the Russians entered Ukrainian territory." In her opinion, allowing Ukraine to use Western missiles to strike Russian territory does not mean escalation and will not draw Kiev's allies into the war.
14:33 Russians shelled Kramatorsk in Donetsk Oblast - one person was killed, three were wounded. Eight private houses were damaged, said OVA head Vadim Filashkin.
14:27 In the morning, Russians fired Tornado-S missiles and cluster munitions at the village of Stary Saltiv in the Vovchansk community of the Kharkiv region - three police officers were wounded, official vehicles were damaged, the National Police reported.
14:16 Peskov said that the Kremlin will study Zelensky’s plan if it is in official sources.
13:22 The number of victims as a result of the night strike on Zaporizhia has risen to 21, reported the head of the OVA Ivan Fedorov.
12:39 Zelensky received the Golden Plate Award in the United States - an award from the American Academy of Achievement. For 60 years, it has been recognizing contributions to the development of humanity.
Zelensky also said that the next few months will be decisive: "In this war - Russia's war against Ukraine and all of you, because this is Russia's war against freedom itself - we have little time to determine what the outcome will be. And we must determine it. Not Russia, not their bloody allies. We must act quickly. We must not lose the next few months in the war, so as not to lose the next decades."
11:50 The Russian army hit a bus in the Miropol community of Sumy region with an FPV drone in the morning, two local residents were injured, OVA reported.
11:31 The number of victims as a result of airstrikes in Zaporizhia and its suburbs has risen to 17, including a 15-year-old teenager, the prosecutor's office reported.
11:25 In the morning, Russians launched another attack on Kupyansk in the Kharkiv region, one person was killed, reported the head of the OVA Oleg Sinegubov.
11:18 The Ukrainian Armed Forces have broken through another section of the border with Russia, the press service of the 95th separate Polesie airborne assault brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces reported. This is already the second successful operation to break through the Russian border since the beginning of the operation in the Kursk region. The paratroopers showed a video that shows the development of passages in engineering barriers, the entry of airborne assault units into enemy territory and the first battles in the border zone, where the airborne assault tankers destroyed an enemy stronghold. The brigade did not specify the details of the operation.
10:54 Zelensky's victory plan envisages providing Ukraine with security guarantees from Western countries, "similar to the mutual defense pact when joining NATO," The Times writes. In addition, the document contains a clause on international financial assistance for the restoration of the Ukrainian economy, the provision of modern weapons, and the continuation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces' operation in the Kursk region.
10:26 Biden said that he did not give Ukraine permission to use Western long-range weapons to strike Russian territory. Answering the question, the US president said briefly and categorically: "No."
09:47 Late in the evening of September 22, Russians shelled the KAB village of Sheykovka in the Izyum district, two people were injured, reported the head of the OVA Oleg Sinegubov. Two more people were injured the day before as a result of shelling of the urban-type settlement of Kupyansk-Uzlovaya.
09:33 Three people were killed in Donetsk Oblast as a result of Russian shelling on September 22: two in Myrnohrad and one in Novoukrainka, reported OVA head Vadim Filashkin. Another ten people in the region were injured in the past 24 hours: six in Kramatorsk, three in Slovyansk and one in Nikolaevka.
09:12 In the morning, Russians attacked an ambulance from a drone near Romashkovo, Belozersk community, Kherson region - a paramedic and a driver were injured, OVA reported. Over the previous day, as a result of Russian shelling in the region, one person was killed and seven were injured.
08:45 Russians attacked the center of Zaporizhia at night, 16 people were injured, said the head of the OVA Ivan Fedorov. 13 multi-story buildings, educational institutions, and private houses were damaged. The enemy carried out at least seven airstrikes on Zaporizhia and the Zaporizhia region. The police specified that the enemy used KABs for the strikes.
08:04 Russia attacked at night with two Kh-59/69 guided air missiles and four Shahed-type attack UAVs. Air defense destroyed three drones, and the remaining air targets - one Shahed and two guided air missiles - did not reach their targets due to electronic warfare countermeasures, the Air Force reported.

07:13 Zelensky said that he began his visit to the United States with a visit to a plant in Scranton (Pennsylvania), which produces 155-mm artillery shells for Ukraine. The president also announced agreements on expanding cooperation between Pennsylvania and Zaporizhia.
02:26 As a result of the Ukrainian strike on September 21 on the 23rd arsenal of the Main Missile and Artillery Directorate of the Russian Defense Ministry near the village of Oktyabrsky in the Tver region, more than 58 warehouses were destroyed, several open areas with ammunition, a railway was damaged and trains with ammunition were destroyed, American OSINT analyst MT_Anderson reported, citing satellite data.
01:38 The UN General Assembly adopted the main document of the Future Summit - the Pact for the Future, despite Russia's protest. Russia's amendments were rejected by 143 votes, and General Assembly President Philemon Young declared the Pact adopted and signed it. The document contains a list of countries' intentions to solve global problems - from military conflicts and climate change to artificial intelligence and reforming the UN and global institutions.
In particular, the section on peace and security notes that "the scourge of war is taking on new and more dangerous forms." Today, "the world is closer to a nuclear confrontation than at any time since the end of the Cold War." The pact also notes that countries commit to act "collectively to maintain and restore international peace and security on land, at sea, in space, in cyberspace, and in other emerging areas." Zelensky welcomed the adoption of the pact and stressed that a secure future is possible only if the war in Ukraine ends.
00:20 Macron said that after the war in Ukraine, it will be necessary to rethink the relations of all of Europe with Russia: "This is undoubtedly the greatest challenge of today, because our current order is incomplete and unfair. Incomplete because it was conceived at the end of the Second World War, and therefore did not have at its heart the problems that subsequently emerged and became dominant." In particular, according to the French president, "most of the countries on this planet and many of the most populous countries did not exist when the seats were allocated," so the international order in which the world lives today is "blocked."
