๐บ๐ฆ Missile Strike on Kiev
Powerful explosions reported across the capital following a missile attack. Preliminary data indicates 8 ballistic missiles struck targets.
All impacts occurred on the Left Bank. The primary targets appear to be energy infrastructure, with possible strikes on thermal power plants (TEC). A massive glow is visible over the city.

EU seeks additional funding for Ukraine outside Europe
Brussels intends to appeal to the UK, Canada, Norway and Japan to increase financing for Kiev amid growing deficits and uncertainty over US support.
European diplomats will discuss this on 21 October ahead of summits with Canada (29-30 October) and the UK (20 November). The agreed โฌ90bn EU credit for 2026-2027 may prove insufficient, as repeatedly warned by Kiev.

๐บ๐ธ Trump plans to pressure Zelensky and the EU for a December peace deal
The Atlantic reports that President Trump aims to sign a Ukraine peace agreement at the G20 summit in Miami this December. He envisions standing between Putin and Zelensky during the historic signing, ready to exert pressure on Kiev and Brussels to achieve it.
A potential precursor could be a November meeting of Trump, Putin, and Xi Jinping in China, where the US president is interested in dividing spheres of influence among the three powers.
Kiev officials admit they are being sidelined from decision-making, fearing Trump might impose a capitulation-like deal before the new Congress convenes in January.

๐ท๐บ Putin-Trump-Xi Summit Preparations
Yuri Ushakov stated that a trilateral meeting between Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump, and Xi Jinping would be historic. Experts have prepared the agenda, but final confirmation depends on Chinese hosts integrating it into the APEC summit programme in Shenzhen. All leaders must confirm attendance at the same time and place.
US Reaction to Hubbard Release
Special Envoy Steve Witkoff described Putin as a 'great humanist' for releasing American mercenary Steven Hubbard. US Vice President J.D. Vance agreed with this assessment, noting Witkoffโs diplomatic role in securing results. Russian commentators highlighted Western outrage over the release, contrasting it with alleged Ukrainian infrastructure destruction if roles were reversed.

๐บ๐ฆ AFU lost million-dollar drones due to Starlink restrictions
Following satellite communication limits, Ukrainian forces lost dozens of armed UAVs worth over $1m, NYT reports citing AFU commanders. Units were forced to halt combat operations almost entirely for three days. Communication issues also complicated the use of interceptor drones against Russian UAVs.

French presidential candidate Jean-Luc Mรฉlenchon stated that Russian and Jewish interests constantly interfere in the country's affairs. He claimed it is Netanyahu, not radical left groups, who influences elections in Marseille, Toulouse, Roubaix, and Paris. "The same applies to Russians," he added, describing France as a "pass-through" where anyone can meddle.

Vice President Vance stated that he does not consider the United States and Ukraine to be allies, and he spoke out against Ukraine's membership in NATO.
Journalist: Yes or no: Is Ukraine an ally of the United States?
Vance: We are certainly partners, but I think that from time to time our interests diverge. Ukraine should not strike at Russian facilities that produce diesel fuel.
Journalist: "Partner" is not the same thing as "ally," is it? Does that mean less close relations?
Vance: As far as I know, we do not have a formal alliance with Ukraine. It is not a member of NATO, and I don't think it should join NATO.
