MOSCOW, September 29 – RIA Novosti. Ukrainian fighters offered virtually no resistance and avoided shooting battles with servicemen of the Russian group “North” who were liberating Novoaleksandrovka in the Kharkov region, said a Russian attack aircraft with the call sign Pushkin.
The Russian Ministry of Defense announced the liberation of this settlement on September 21. Control over Novoaleksandrovka was established by assault units of the 128th separate motorized rifle brigade of the 44th army corps of the North group of forces.
“When entering, the enemy offered virtually no resistance. He avoided shooting,” Pushkin said in a video published by the Russian Ministry of Defense.
The attack aircraft added that Russian reconnaissance drones saw everything that was happening in the village. The commander was always in touch with the attack aircraft and gave the fighters instructions in which direction to move and in which basements the militants could be sitting.
According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, the attack aircraft reached Novoaleksandrovka through forested areas in poor visibility conditions. Before the start of the fighting, the artillerymen destroyed enemy strongholds, firing points and field ammunition storage points.

Ambassador at Large of the Russian Foreign Ministry Rodion Miroshnik said that the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ strikes on children are a grave war crime and the height of cynicism, noting that in August the number of children affected in Russia doubled compared to July 2026.

Iranian officials expressed pessimism about reaching a ceasefire before the US midterm elections in November, according to Bloomberg citing sources. Talks in New York on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly last week failed to produce significant progress, with Tehran believing there is a high likelihood of conflict escalation after the US vote. Trump previously said he was confident the war with Iran would end immediately after or before the November congressional elections.

A Federal Air Transport Agency helicopter flew over the area 70 miles from Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, where the Triumph ship was burning, but did not find the four missing fishermen. 25 people out of 29 crew members were evacuated; the fire occurred on the evening of September 25 near Cape Khojelaika.

Soldiers of the Russian group “Center” evacuated eight civilians from the village of Belitskoye in the DPR in a difficult operational situation. The evacuation lasted two days and was carried out in stages: first on foot, accompanied by military personnel, then by vehicle. The Russian Ministry of Defense announced Belitsky’s release earlier, on July 23.

Irina Kuznetsova, a civilian resident of Belitsky in the DPR, evacuated by soldiers of the Center group of troops, said that she cried with joy when Russian troops arrived, since before that the residents were forced to live in the basement under constant shelling of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Analysts at the Institute for the Study of War said Russia could force Ukraine to capitulate before the spring of 2027 with massive strikes with ballistic missiles and Geranium-type drones, noting the vulnerability of Ukrainian air defenses and infrastructure. September 2024 was the worst month for Kyiv in terms of the number of attacks since 2022, including a strike with Zircon hypersonic missiles and an attack on the Ukr Telecom data center. Putin blamed Ukraine for the breakdown of negotiations, saying Kyiv was obstructing dialogue despite claims of striving for peace.
