This was confirmed by Lieutenant General Mykola Oleshchuk, the Air Force Commander.
SOURCE: Oleshchuk on Telegram
QUOTE from Oleshchuk: “I hope another boat followed the Moskva (the Russian cruiser destroyed in April 2022 – ed.)!
In the meantime, we are waiting for official confirmation of the results once again; I would like to thank the pilots of the tactical aviation of the Air Forces for successful cruise missile strikes on the infrastructure of the Zaliv shipbuilding yard in Kerch, where one of the most modern ships of the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Federation, a Kalibr cruise missile carrier, was stationed.
DETAILS: Oleshchuk also thanked the anti-aircraft gunners for the three Iskander-K missiles shot down on the evening of 4 November.
NOTE: On 4 November, explosions were heard in the annexed Crimea, and an air-raid warning was issued.

PMC ‘Wagner’ became part of the Russian National Guard and resumed the recruitment of volunteers. Yevgeny Prigozhin’s son Pavel is now in charge of the company. According to analysts, cooperation with the government was his only possible option. Otherwise, he would have lost his father’s inheritance.
The rules of recruitment to PMCs have also changed. PMCs are already considering recruits with amputated limbs which clearly shows a severe lack of personnel in the Russian army.

Ukraine exported more than 100 million tonnes of goods through Solidarity Lanes, most of which are agricultural products.
SOURCE: This was stated by President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen at a joint meeting with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy
QUOTE: “Solidarity Lanes allowed Ukraine to export more than 100 million tonnes of goods. Most of them are agricultural products. Therefore, Ukraine feeds the world in these times of deficit,” said the head of the European Commission.
Von der Leyen also added that in 16 months, the Solidarity Lanes have brought Ukraine €42 billion.
According to her, Solidarity Lanes are important, as 65% of Ukrainian agricultural products are exported through them. That is why the EU continues to invest in railway, road and border crossings with Ukraine in order to expand them.
BACKGROUND: US$1 billion will be raised from EU states and international partners within the framework of the Solidarity Lanes initiative, announced by the European Union in May 2022 in order to facilitate export of Ukrainian grain.

Following Ukraine’s use of recently provided US artillery missiles in long-range attacks of airfields, air defense systems, ammunition facilities and other infrastructure in Russian-occupied areas, the Kremlin has now begun conducting simulator missions throughout its air defense forces.
The Kyiv Post media outlet wrote this:
İt is recalled that on Oct. 17 Ukraine carried out attacks against two airfields in occupied Berdyansk and Luhansk, using the M39 cluster munition variant of the US-supplied MGM-140 ATACMS.
The attack destroyed or damaged over a dozen Russian helicopters, air defense systems and ammunition dumps at the sites.
Russia claimed a second attack using ATACMS on Oct. 25, against another airfield to the south of the Luhansk region, had been foiled with two missiles being shot down.
That said, there is mounting evidence that Ukraine’s missiles had actually struck a Russian S-400 air defense complex.
On Oct. 30, Ukraine struck a Russian air defense system on the Black Sea in occupied Crimea with a series of combined missile and special forces attacks on the peninsula.
Despite Russia’s claims to have brought down the missiles during these attacks it was soon being reported that Moscow’s forces were moving logistics and command facilities farther from the front line and out of range of the ATACMS.
İt was further announced that air defense units throughout Russia were starting to train on simulators, specifically to intercept and destroy ATACMS.
Former Deputy Commander-in-Chief for Integrated Air Defense throughout the CIS, Lieutenant-General Aitech Bizhev, said: “Combat teams of all air defense weapons in service with the Aerospace Forces are training on simulators as part of the combat preparation of the entire air defense system across the country.”

Ukraine has created a unique electronic warfare system, Piranha AVD 360, to protect armored vehicles and military personnel against enemy drones.
The relevant statement was made by Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister for Innovation, Education, Science and Technology Development - Digital Transformation Minister Mykhailo Fedorov on Telegram
“The Piranha AVD 360 is a unique electronic warfare system to strengthen the Defense Forces. This technology helps to protect armored vehicles and military personnel against enemy drones more effectively,” Fedorov wrote.
In his words, the Piranha AVD 360 electronic warfare system creates a protective dome of up to 600 meters around itself. The system prevents drones from receiving commands and transmitting data. As a result, unmanned aerial vehicles hang in the air, make an emergency landing, or fall uncontrollably.
According to Fedorov, the Piranha AVD 360 electronic warfare system also jams satellite navigation systems, such as Russia’s GLONASS.
“Currently, the system has successfully passed field tests and is ready for serial production. Technologies and innovations are the key to our victory. They help to destroy the enemy more effectively and save the lives of the military,” Fedorov noted.
A reminder that more than 1,500 Ukrainian-made FPV drones were purchased as part of the government program and sent to the Donetsk direction.

Poland is at risk of direct confrontation with Russia and Belarus, says Medvedev

Dmitry Medvedev, the Deputy Chairman of Russia’s Security Council and former President, posted an eight-thousand-word rant about Polish-Russian relations, calling Warsaw a “dangerous enemy” of Moscow and threatening it with the loss of statehood.
Medvedev has warned that Poland’s actions may lead to a direct confrontation with Russia and Belarus and launch World War III.
“Poland’s own military buildup and Polish military presence in Ukraine may trigger a direct confrontation between Warsaw and Belarus and Russia,” Medvedev said in an article for the Rossiyskaya Gazeta newspaper. “In this case, the allied group will give an appropriate response to prevent threats that stem from the evil ambitions of the Polish establishment,” he stressed.
In Medvedev’s opinion, “Poland’s reckless actions, if rashly supported by its NATO allies, may have far-reaching dangerous consequences for the entire world.” “And then Poland will fulfill the role of ‘the hyena of Europe’ that unleashed World War III,” he noted.
Medvedev also writes about the EU’s “hatred” of Poland and the Poles’ disdain for Ukrainians, but separately focuses on Russia’s attitude towards Warsaw.
“In the 21st century, Russia has a dangerous enemy in Eastern Europe that was revived in the person of Poland... And it should be treated exactly as a historical enemy, considering that it is, in principle, incorrigible. And if there is no hope of reconciliation with the enemy, Russia should only have one and a very rigid attitude towards his fate,” he claims.
Medvedev explains the transformation of Poland into an “enemy” of Russia through “Russophobic revisionist policy” while at the same time recalling how, at the end of the 18th century, the Russian Empire took part in the dismemberment of the then Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
