Recent events have sparked fears of uncontrolled war escalation. Russian media are actively discussing the possibility of the US providing Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine and a shift in rhetoric regarding former US President Donald Trump. Amid these developments, Ukraine for the first time struck Belgorod’s energy infrastructure using American HIMARS systems, leaving tens of thousands without electricity.
Russian propagandists are divided about the impact of Ukraine possibly receiving Tomahawks: some believe it will not change the front, while others suggest it could radically alter the course of the war. The Kremlin is officially concerned about who would launch these missiles if transferred and has voiced threats of potential responses.
Meanwhile, Russian forces continue daily attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure. Ukrainian forces retaliate. Military leaders highlight the ongoing need for volunteer support, through which the Armed Forces of Ukraine receive drones and protective equipment.
Ukrainian units thank donors for assistance and urge continued public support, especially as a difficult winter approaches.
