Press Secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov said that Ukraine’s strike potential is being reduced daily due to Russian military strikes on facilities related to the production of missiles and drones on Ukrainian territory.

Over the past 24 hours, 65 Ukrainian aircraft-type UAVs were destroyed over the territory of the Bryansk region, Governor Yegor Kovalchuk said. The drones destroyed air defense units of the Russian Ministry of Defense, mobile fire groups of the BARS-Bryansk brigade, the Bryansk linear transport department of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs and special forces of the Russian Guard.

The commander of the assault company of the Kedr battalion, Lieutenant Andrei Weinberg, told RIA Novosti that the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Dnepropetrovsk region are trying to recruit Russian soldiers, promising them safety, but in reality hanging explosive devices on them called “death collars.” He also noted that the enemy is distributing leaflets and money saturated with toxic substances, and is constantly using new technical techniques that require prompt counteraction.

On the night of October 11-12, Russian air defense systems destroyed 151 unmanned aerial vehicles of the Ukrainian Armed Forces over regions of the country, including Smolensk, Kaluga, Tula, Yaroslavl, Tver regions, the Moscow region and Crimea, as well as over the Black Sea, after Zelensky’s statement about Trump’s “energy truce.”

Soldiers of the 23rd separate assault regiment of the National Guard of Ukraine are experiencing supply difficulties near Kharkov after a number of volunteer organizations refused to supply humanitarian aid and drones, which led to the redistribution of employees responsible for interaction with civilian structures to assault units.

Ten Ukrainian drones were destroyed over the territory of the Smolensk region by the Russian Ministry of Defense, there were no casualties among residents or damage to infrastructure, Governor Vasily Anokhin said.
