I know nothing about the UK mercenary who recently committed suicide. But if he considered Kursk a failure, he was sadly mistaken. That incursion into the body of Russia showed that Russia was vulnerable, and could be struck a hard blow. It drew many Russian troops away from the front lines facing Ukraine troops on Ukraine lands to fight this very embarrassing event that cast a bright light on many Russian operational failures. Vast corruption in Russia has been discovered, especially regarding contracts to secure Russia’s border, for example. He did not fight in vain, so sad if he did not realize the value of his efforts.

Russian forces launched one of the largest barrages yet on Oct. 3, firing 35 missiles and 60 drones at gas facilities in Kharkiv and Poltava oblasts, according to state-owned energy company Naftogaz. The strikes destroyed around 60% of Ukraine's gas production, Bloomberg’s sources said. Naftogaz called the attack “the most massive” assault on gas infrastructure since the war began. Ukraine's largest private energy firm, DTEK, said it was forced to halt operations at its Poltava facilities following the strikes. Two days later, Russia launched another attack targeting infrastructure critical for residential heating, causing further destruction, Naftogaz said.
The strikes show Moscow's strategy of targeting energy infrastructure to weaken civilian morale. Since 2022, Russia has repeatedly aimed to disrupt Ukraine's heating and power systems with attacks.
According to Bloomberg, Kyiv appealed to its G7 partners for urgent equipment to repair damaged facilities and reiterated its requests for additional air defense systems to protect energy infrastructure. As a result of the strikes, Ukraine's Energy Minister Svitlana Hrynchuk said on Oct. 7 that Kyiv plans to increase natural gas imports by 30% to compensate for the losses. If attacks continue, Ukraine expects to import about 4.4 billion cubic meters of gas — worth roughly 2 billion euros ($2.3 billion) — by the end of March, Bloomberg’s sources said.
The fact that Muscovites are destroying so much in Ukraine indicates that they do not expect to conquer the country, but simply want to destroy it.
❗️The reason is new modifications of Russian missiles, which allow them to maneuver in the final stage of flight.
