Worth noting, korrespondent.net has compiled its Invasion of Ukraine series into separate months, beginning May 9th, 2023. Linked in the title.
[Korrespondent] 19:47 The Italian government is preparing the 10th package of military aid for Ukraine. This was reported by Reuters, citing sources. It is noted that the new aid package will probably be approved by the end of this month. As is known, since the beginning of the Russian invasion, Italy has already approved nine aid packages for Ukraine, including two air defense systems known as SAMP/T.
19:10 The Verkhovna Rada supported in the first reading a bill according to which citizens in Ukraine will automatically register for military service upon reaching the age of 17. This was reported on December 3 by the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. According to Defense Minister Rustem Umerov, young people no longer need to go to the TCC or undergo a medical examination. They will only need to undergo identification in Reserve+, after which the application itself will generate a military registration document.
17:55 NATO should help Ukraine, but sending the Alliance's troops to Ukraine would mean its entry into the war, Luxembourg Foreign Affairs and Trade Minister Xavier Bethel said.
"Troops on the battlefield mean war. It is terrible that things continue as they are, but we said that there should be no war between NATO and Russia," he said.
17:36 In the Kherson region, Russians dropped explosives from a drone, there is a victim and a wounded person. In Berislav, a 43-year-old woman died. In Antonovka, a 54-year-old civilian man was wounded.
17:25 Russian troops struck Pokrovsk in Donetsk Oblast. A woman was killed, a man and a three-month-old boy were injured. This was reported by the Prosecutor General's Office. The baby was diagnosed with mine-explosive and craniocerebral injuries and a concussion.
16:01 On December 3, President Volodymyr Zelensky held a meeting of the Headquarters of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief, where they discussed orders for the production of drones, missiles and artillery, as well as the protection of energy infrastructure.
15:15 Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha called on NATO countries to provide an additional 20 air defense systems to protect energy infrastructure in winter.
"Ukraine urgently needs at least 20 additional air defense systems such as HAWK, NASAMS or IRIS-T. This will help avoid blackouts," he stressed.
14:00 Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrsky reported on the situation at the front, the situation in the Kurakhovsky and Pokrovsky directions remains difficult, there are good results in defense in the Zaporizhzhya direction. This was reported by President Volodymyr Zelensky.
"Report of Commander-in-Chief Alexander Syrsky. General situation on the front, defense of our positions. Kurakhovskoye and Pokrovskoye directions remain the most difficult. I am grateful to each unit that is destroying the occupier and holding back the Russian advance," he said.
Zelensky added that "there are good defensive results in the Zaporizhzhya direction."
13:05 The partners hear Ukraine's calls for NATO membership and do not back down from their plans, but at the December meeting of the Alliance they have a different goal. This was stated by NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.
"In the coming days, we will focus on what to do to help Ukraine now... The meeting (of Alliance ministers - ed.) will focus on ensuring that when Ukraine decides to start negotiations, it can do so from a position of strength," he said.
12:59 NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte responded to the launch of the Oreshnik missile on the Dnieper, assuring that the Russians' brazen attack will not deter allies in their support for Ukraine.
11:35 The head of the Center for Countering Disinformation (CCD) at the National Security and Defense Council Andriy Kovalenko said that the Russian army is preparing for offensive actions in the Zaporizhia region, but there is no threat to the city of Zaporizhia. According to him, when speaking about the Zaporizhia direction, it is important not to confuse the Zaporizhia region and Zaporizhia.
10:46 Ukrainian forces are fighting for control over part of the Kursk region, repelling continuous attacks by the Russians. The fighting here is reaching peak intensity, according to a CNN report.
10:32 The Security Service detained two underage Russian agents who were involved in terrorist activities by enemy special services. On November 28, the perpetrators committed a terrorist attack in the Vyshgorod district of the Kyiv region.
On instructions from Russian special services, they detonated a homemade explosive device near the building of the local police department. No one was hurt in the incident. Both terrorists were exposed "hot on the heels." The perpetrators turned out to be two 14-year-old boys whom the Russians recruited remotely through Telegram channels looking for quick money.
9:45 Air defense forces worked in the Kiev region at night - there are destroyed targets. No critical or residential infrastructure was hit, there were no casualties.
In one of the settlements, damage was recorded to four private houses, a gas pipe, two cars and a fence.
9:25 On the night of December 3, Russian troops attacked Ukraine with 28 Shahed attack UAVs and other types of drones. Air defense forces shot down 22 enemy UAVs in the Kyiv, Chernihiv, Vinnytsia, Khmelnytsky, Zhytomyr, Sumy, Odessa, Mykolaiv and Dnipropetrovsk regions.

08:27 NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte warned Donald Trump that the United States will face a "terrible threat" from China, Iran and North Korea if Ukraine is forced to make concessions to end the war with Russia.
07:44 Special Operations Forces (SOF) fighters of the Ukrainian Armed Forces carried out another successful raid on enemy positions in Kursk region. As a result, almost twenty Russian soldiers were eliminated and eight more were captured.
07:26 NATO foreign ministers will meet in Brussels on Tuesday, December 3. On the eve of this meeting, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha said that inviting our country to the Alliance would eliminate one of Russia's main arguments in waging the war, namely, preventing Ukraine from joining NATO. However, the bloc's members are unlikely to listen to Kiev and provide an invitation after the meeting.
00:30 Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky denied Western media reports about losses in the war, allegedly 80,000 Ukrainian soldiers killed, and noted that the losses are significantly less.
