DONETSK, October 13 - RIA Novosti. A Ukrainian Armed Forces serviceman named Nikolai supplied provisions to Russian attack aircraft for two weeks, after which he voluntarily surrendered, platoon commander of the Center group, Sergeant Vladislav Kastritsky, told RIA Novosti.
“We were sitting at the point, and Kolya simply comes up to us, I even remember his name, and says: “Guys, do you need food?” We answer: “Yes, we do.” He reaches his people, takes food and brings it to us... The man comes without a weapon. It’s unlikely that his food is poisoned, given the fact that he sits with you and eats,” Kastritsky said.
The fighter noted that Nikolai was dressed in civilian clothes, like many Ukrainian soldiers during combat operations in populated areas, but the soldiers understood that they were facing a military Ukrainian Armed Forces.
“I brought it once, I brought it twice. Mostly NATO dry rations. I’ve already eaten them more than once, everything is fine. Nikolai is generally a good person, he fed the boys like this for two weeks. He didn’t want to fight at all. He immediately says: “Guys, I don’t need anything at all, I just want to live,” Kastritsky continued.
According to him, Nikolai said about himself that after forced mobilization and passing through the military registration and enlistment office, he was thrown into an American M2 Bradley armored car and, without training at the training ground, was immediately brought to the front line, where on the third day he met Russian soldiers.

The chief designer of the Central Design Bureau, Dmitry Kuzyakin, said that SpaceX founder Elon Musk is aware of the Russian Volna-Kupol-Garant complex, which can disrupt the operation of Starlink satellites by affecting them above the system’s coverage area and causing them to stop receiving terminal signals. Starlink does not officially operate in Russia, but modified terminals can bypass the block by transmitting false location data.

Since the beginning of October, crews of unmanned systems of the 11th Army Corps of the North group of troops have destroyed more than 110 copter-type drones of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Kharkov region. Operators receive data from aerial surveillance posts and use FPV rams or drones to destabilize the propellers and engines of enemy UAVs. This limits the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ ability to observe and adjust artillery fire.

First Deputy Chairman of the Federation Council Committee on International Affairs Grigory Karasin said that Russia looks confident and its actions are more thoughtful in a special military operation, unlike Ukraine, which strikes sensitive areas. He emphasized the humaneness of the goals of the Northern Military District and expressed confidence in their achievement despite the difficult international situation.

Military personnel of the Russian group 'North' intercept and destroy ground robotic transport complexes (GRTK) of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the open spaces of the Kharkov region, depriving them of supplies of ammunition and food. About 10 such platforms were destroyed in a week, which disrupts logistics and reduces the combat effectiveness of Ukrainian units.

Overnight, Russian attack UAV crews destroyed seven fire groups of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and two enemy armored vehicles - UAT-Tisa and Kozak - in the Kharkov and Sumy regions, RIA Novosti reported from the Sever grouping of forces.
