[Korrespondent] 21:25 Ukrainian OSINT project DeepState reports that the Russian army has occupied Ugledar in Donetsk Oblast - Russian publics are publishing tricolors hung in all corners of the city.
20:39 Russians shot 16 Ukrainian prisoners of war in the Pokrovsky direction - an investigation has been launched into another war crime by the Russian army, the Prosecutor General's Office reported. Information about the alleged execution of 16 Ukrainian servicemen appeared in Telegram channels on October 1. According to media reports, the Russian army committed another war crime in the area of the villages of Nikolaevka and Sukhoi Yar in the Pokrovsky district.
The released video shows captured Ukrainian servicemen leaving a forest plantation under enemy control. After they lined up, Russian soldiers deliberately opened fire on them to kill. The wounded, who showed signs of life, were finished off with a burst of machine gun fire at point-blank range. This is the largest known case of the death penalty of Ukrainian prisoners of war on the front line.
20:01 The number of victims as a result of the enemy attack on Zaporizhia has increased to 32 people, 69 apartment buildings and private houses have been damaged and destroyed, reported the head of the OVA Ivan Fedorov.
19:43 Zelensky said that he heard a report from the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate, Kirill Budanov: "About how our intelligence assesses the prospects for this year, Russian intentions, the tasks that the Kremlin sets for its military. We clearly see the main guidelines of what exactly needs to be responded to and how exactly."
19:08 The number of victims as a result of the enemy strike on Zaporizhia has grown to 24, including three children aged between nine and 12 years old, one person died, reported the head of the OVA Ivan Fedorov.
18:12 In occupied Melitopol, near a plant for auto and tractor parts, a VAZ 2110 car exploded, in which there were three Russian servicemen. As reported by the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense, the operation to eliminate the occupiers involved in the brutal terror of the local population was carried out under the coordination of intelligence by Ukrainian underground fighters, who set up a mine trap.
17:26 New NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte has called for not listening to Russia's nuclear threats and said that the allies do not currently see any direct risks of using nuclear weapons. He added that if the world were to make concessions to Putin's threats in general, it would set a dangerous precedent.
Rutte also spoke in favor of allowing Ukraine to strike at Russian territory, but at the same time acknowledged that these should be decisions by individual countries: "Ukraine is waging a war of self-defense. This means that Ukraine has the right to defend itself. And, as we know, under international law, this right does not end at the border. This means supporting Ukraine's right to self-defense. But each ally determines the level of its support for Ukraine. I do not decide this on behalf of the Alliance. The partners decide this."
NATO Secretary General estimated Russia's losses in the war with Ukraine at 500,000 soldiers: "Russian losses are 1,000 killed or wounded soldiers per day. This means that about 500,000 were killed or wounded. This is significant in the context of the continuation of the Russian war."
17:19 Zelensky said that he had heard reports from Defense Minister Rustem Umerov, Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrsky, and Chief of the General Staff Anatoly Bargilevich. They discussed the situation at the front, the need for weapons and equipment, coordination with allies, and preparations for the Rammstein meeting.
17:11 Forced evacuation of families with children has been announced from 90 settlements of Sumy district, the district council reported. Children will be evacuated from Belopolskaya, Vorozhbyanskaya, Krasnopolskaya, Khotynskaya, Yunakovskaya, Miropolskaya, Nikolayevskaya communities.
17:05 Russians shelled Malaya Tokmachka in Zaporizhia Oblast, one person was killed, reported OVA head Ivan Fedorov.
16:56 Half of the ammunition that the Ukrainian Armed Forces use at the front is of Ukrainian production, Shmyhal said. According to the Prime Minister, the production of domestic weapons has tripled in 2023. The missile program is being implemented, and the country is also reaching significant volumes of production of artillery systems and armored vehicles. By the end of the year, Ukraine will produce 1.5 million drones, Shmyhal said.
"We are not only producing drones, but also training personnel to operate them. Today, the government is launching a pilot project to certify UAV operator schools. We are setting clear requirements for these schools and unifying the educational process. It will be easier for trained drone operators to obtain the appropriate military registration specialty," the prime minister added.
15:58 The Foreign Ministry has denied the Financial Times' information about Sybiha allegedly discussing possible territorial concessions in the war with Russia in New York. According to Foreign Ministry spokesman Georgy Tykhy, "there were no proposals, discussions or even hints about any territorial compromises at any meeting." On the contrary, according to him, the minister's position is unwavering: "There can be no compromises on the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine. The information from the Financial Times' source about the minister discussing compromises is simply untrue. And we wonder who is interested in spreading such false narratives."
15:21 The Financial Times reports, citing sources, that Biden may advance the status of Ukraine's bid for NATO membership before he leaves office as US President, while Ukraine is now speaking more openly about possible compromises. Thus, Ukrainian officials are discussing a possible ceasefire with their Western counterparts - even if Russian troops remain in the occupied territories. The changes in rhetoric became noticeable at the UN General Assembly meeting in New York. Western diplomats called newly appointed Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga "more pragmatic" than Kuleba on the issue of compromises.
15:09 The government has issued a decree allowing military units to mobilize reservists and conscripts who voluntarily wish to serve during mobilization. In particular, military unit commanders are authorized to issue orders for military training and staff combat units with volunteers. Conscripts and reservists-volunteers can also choose a military unit without contacting the TCC. The list of such military units will be determined by the General Staff.
14:52 In Zaporozhye, the number of victims as a result of today's Russian attack has risen to 21, including a 12-year-old child, one person died, said the head of the OVA Ivan Fedorov.
14:37 One of the people wounded in the Russian attack on Izmail in Odessa Oblast on September 27 has died in hospital, OVA chief Oleg Kiper reported. The attack has brought the total to four victims and ten wounded.
14:12 The advantage of Russian troops in artillery shells on the battlefield has decreased almost threefold since the winter of 2024, said First Deputy Defense Minister Ivan Gavrilyuk: "Today, the ratio of the use of artillery ammunition on the battlefield has decreased compared to the winter of 2024. Then the ratio was 1:8, today it is 1:3."
13:26 Russians attacked Zaporizhia with aerial bombs - one dead and six wounded, reported OVA head Ivan Fedorov. Multi-story and private houses, infrastructure facilities were damaged.
13:13 Die Zeit writes that Scholz plans to speak with Putin on the phone for the first time in two and a half years.
12:59 In the morning, Russians dropped four guided aerial bombs on civilian infrastructure in the Esman community of the Shostka district of the Sumy region: one person was killed, two were wounded, the prosecutor's office reported.
12:52 Russia is preparing for a long-term confrontation with the United States, said Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov. According to him, Moscow is sending Washington "all the necessary warnings so that it does not underestimate Russia's readiness for confrontation."
11:40 There are still 107 people left in Ugledar, Donetsk region, all children have already been evacuated from the city, said the head of the OVA Vadim Filashkin. He confirmed that the fighting is taking place within the city limits, so it is practically impossible to bring in humanitarian aid.
11:33 Zaporizhzhya NPP is again on the verge of a blackout: as a result of a Russian attack on a main substation, one of the power lines of the occupied station was de-energized, the Ministry of Energy reported. Power engineers are currently working to eliminate the consequences of the enemy shelling.
11:24 The new NATO Secretary General, former Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte, promised that aid to Ukraine would remain a priority for the Alliance: "We will continue to implement priorities. In particular, those concerning Ukraine. We must ensure that Ukraine wins as a sovereign, independent, democratic state." Rutte added that NATO should increase spending on deterrence and defense, and Ukraine, in his words, "must have a place" in the Alliance.

00:36 Ukrainian OSINT project DeepState reports that the Russian army entered Vuhledar from the west and south.

00:17 Ukraine can make its own decisions about strikes with its own weapons on targets in the Russian Federation. In addition, the United States does not prohibit the use of American-made weapons in Russia's border regions, said State Department spokesman Matthew Miller.

It is a sovereign country, and they can use the weapons they have created themselves, and there are a lot of them," he noted. According to Miller, "Ukraine has great potential to defend itself."
