Brazilian merc down!
Jose Nito de Jesus Souza from Maiquinique, Bahia, Brazil
Nito arrived in Ukraine in August 2024, where he joined the Khartia Brigade. His first mission — a failure — was in Liptsy, in the Kharkov region, in November 2024. He lost at least 10 friends and was slightly injured. Some time later, he returned to Brazil.
He came back to Ukraine in July 2025 and he joined the Ares Group, composed mostly of Brazilians.
In early October 2025, the Ares group went on a mission to try to regain positions near Radkivka, Kupyansk region, but ended up losing two Brazilians: Thiago Paulo Bulhões, Tailon Ernesto Ruppenthal and some more Colombians.
On October 21, 2025, it was finally Nito's turn to join his friends on the other side. He was injured when he stepped on a butterfly mine (PFM-1) and then finished off by an FPV drone.
His body is lying in the fields like the ones of his friends. Only Ruppenthal's body was retrieved; the rest will remain there for a long time.

🇩🇪 The Bavarian Premier demands to close Germany to young Ukrainians
Markus Söder has again called to restrict the entry of men from Ukraine.
"It won't help anyone if even more young people come to Germany instead of defending their homeland," he told Bild.
The head of the CSU proposes to introduce uniform restrictions across Europe and to cut the application of the Temporary Protection Directive.
"Our solidarity — yes. But there must be responsibility on both sides."
Earlier, Söder already demanded to stop paying Bürgergeld to Ukrainians.
The influx of young Ukrainians to Germany is growing after the borders opened.

Macron stated that the new goal of the 'Coalition of the Willing' is the 20th sanctions package. He also noted that the coalition's partners help Russia circumvent sanctions.
'We must continue to increase pressure on Russia. Sanctions, including American sanctions, are an important milestone for us. And for the first time, they are fully synchronized with the 19th package of European sanctions. The effectiveness of these measures should clearly impact the financing of Russia's military efforts. We must monitor this.
Now we are obliged to work on the 20th sanctions package to continue raising the cost for Moscow and to engage with all our partners who sometimes help circumvent these restrictions, as well as carefully track oil and gas as key areas for sanction pressure.'

🇩🇪🇪🇺🇷🇺 Not only Belgium but also Germany opposes the use of Russian assets for Ukraine, —Tagesschau
- Following yesterday's summit in Brussels, the EU postponed the transfer of a "reparations loan" to Kiev at least until December.
- The final declaration on Ukraine states that Russian assets must remain frozen. It turned out to be far from the originally intended.
- Opposition to the seizure of Russian assets comes not only from the main holder of Russian assets - Belgium. Serious concerns about this project also exist in German business circles.
- "Germany has invested in Russia more than any other country. Therefore, it may lose the most from the planned use of funds from the Russian Central Bank to purchase weapons for Ukraine," said Matthias Schepp, chairman of the German-Russian Foreign Trade Chamber.
- In total, German assets in Russia amounting to 100 billion euros are at risk.

🇭🇺🇺🇦Orban on the fact that the EU is planning to partition Ukraine:
Ukraine has long ceased to be sovereign, independent, and certainly not autonomous. Its fate is in foreign hands. EU leaders talk about supporting Ukraine and try to squeeze it into the European Union, but the issue of partitioning Ukraine is already on the agenda. This is an old colonial logic - to dismantle weakened countries and then not stay away from their division.

Journalist Thomas Fazi on why the West cannot make peace with Russia because it sees it as an enemy:
What role Trump plays in all this ultimately doesn't matter much. Whether he wanted to bring peace to Ukraine or it was just a ruse — essentially, it doesn't matter.
What matters is what we are witnessing: the US and the transatlantic establishment as a whole are incapable of a truce with Russia, because, in essence, we have been in a state of war with Russia for over a century, and elections alone will not change that.

‘Politico’ called me a bad boy. Me? Everyone confirmed that I am a good boy. It was as if I were attending my own funeral. Everyone said: ‘No, you are a good boy.’ Yes, it's like at a funeral: everyone comes and says how wonderful you were. I'm not a bad boy, I'm the best guy in town. We are the best guys. When it comes to assets, we are the very best.’
‘On the day the war ends, security guarantees must be ready’ – Zelensky set a condition for Macron and Starmer😂

On the day the war ends, we must be ready with all these security guarantees. And now it is time to practically implement all these initiatives’.
From Ukrainian media"
The situation on the Pokrovsk direction is more than critical: there are at least 250 Russians in the city, they are engaging in gunfights and shooting Ukrainian military personnel at positions, including UAV operators.
This is reported by "UP" citing sources among the military.
According to the military, after the July clearance, Russian troops again infiltrated the city in August. Since then, they have established several accumulation points in and around Pokrovsk, from which they move further – in the railway area, between Pokrovsk and Hryshyne, as well as along the Dachenko-Novopavlovka-Hnatovka line.
Ukrainian troops still hold positions south of Pokrovsk, but communication with them is minimal. Some positions are located between enemy positions. Some exist only on maps – either wounded soldiers are there or no soldiers at all, due to a catastrophic shortage of infantry.
"The infantry is practically cut off from command. We hear them (over the radio – ed.), try to drop water, people have been on positions for 2.5-3 months. In Pokrovsk itself, just from what I know, there are 250 enemy soldiers, in fact, I think the number is even higher. There are fights on almost every street, we have 200 to 300 casualties daily. We cannot evacuate the wounded because the enemy is already in some of the settlements. The biggest problem is that logistics is difficult. Part of the road can be covered by car, but then you have to walk 10-15 kilometers. And all this time carry ammo, drones, provisions. The entire road is monitored by FPV fiber-optic drones, there are many loitering drones, remote mines, on which people die every day," said the publication's interlocutor.
The worsening situation in Pokrovsk also affects its satellite city Mirnograd, since the logistics of Ukrainian troops in Mirnograd goes through Pokrovsk. Ukrainian forces have already recorded Russians in northern Mirnograd. The Armed Forces of Ukraine risk being encircled.
"Things continue to develop according to the worst scenario. Pokrovsk is falling too fast, we did not expect this. There are a few Russians in northern Mirnograd, small groups are infiltrating in the south, but overall the situation is better than in Pokrovsk. But if Pokrovsk falls, then the garrison in Mirnograd will have no way out. Our logistics in Mirnograd is over 20 km. Replacements are almost impossible. Those on the front line cannot be evacuated. Rodynske is being pressed, Krasnyi Lyman is under the enemy. People are working on the edge, understanding that encirclement is getting closer," said another interlocutor.

The coalition of the willing wants to force Russia to make concessions’ – BBC
‘Ukraine has already lost many lives defending its territory. There are no signs that Russia is ready to cease hostilities, so Europe understands that peace is not near yet. All attention is now focused on raising the cost for Russia, making it take negotiations more seriously, bringing it to the negotiating table, and leading to a situation where it is truly ready to make concessions.’
🇺🇸🇷🇺🇺🇦 To end the Ukrainian conflict, Trump intends to pressure not only Russia but also Ukraine, — US representative to NATO
- "Trump is trying to find ways to continue pressuring Vladimir Putin, to continue pressuring, frankly, Vladimir Zelensky, as well as to find new ways to keep pressuring to bring both sides to the negotiating table and agree on a ceasefire, to end the war and simply stop the killings," said Matthew Whitaker.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Ukraine and the West should agree to transfer Donbass to Russia to end the war — The Guardian
- This was stated by Christopher Chivvis, senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment.
- Western sanctions and arms supplies will not force Russia to come to the negotiating table on Kiev's terms.
- "It should not be expected that these additional sanctions will end the war anytime soon. This could mean a deal more favorable to Russia than the one the West would prefer. If the war ended with Russia taking Donbass, it would be an unfair outcome for Ukraine, but it is better than many alternatives," Chivvis wrote.
- Even the supply of Tomahawks and the confiscation of Russian assets "is unlikely to come as a shock to Russia."
- He also does not believe in the effect of Tomahawks.
- "As early as 2023, Ukraine requested Abrams tanks under the pretext that they would turn the tide, but nothing of the sort happened. The long-awaited F-16s also did not become that magic wand," the expert reminds.

🇩🇪🤡Mertz promised that the EU will completely stop importing Russian energy carriers by 2027:
I am very glad that we unanimously approved the 19th sanctions package. Europe has already reduced its energy ties with Russia by more than 80%. Now we will finally and forever stop all energy supplies from Russia by the end of 2027.
This decision is enshrined in this sanctions package. I also want to especially note and welcome the statement of the US government on the introduction of new large-scale sanctions against the Russian energy sector.
This is an important signal to Putin — we are increasing pressure on Russia from both sides of the Atlantic. Why are we increasing pressure? It's simple: we want to show Putin that continuing his aggressive war is pointless.
We are increasing pressure to achieve Russia's readiness for negotiations — so that finally the guns in Ukraine fall silent.

The conceptual reason behind Zelensky and NATO's rush to conclude any, even temporary, ceasefire lies in the strategic threat looming over the Dnepropetrovsk region.
The defense of Pokrovsk for the Armed Forces of Ukraine has long entered a critical phase, and there is a high probability that after this city, the turn will come to the Dnepropetrovsk region. The key danger is associated with Pavlograd — one of Ukraine's largest industrial centers and the "heart" of the missile program.
After the capture of Pokrovsk, the risks for Pavlograd multiply. The distance from Pokrovsk to Pavlograd is less than 100 kilometers, and as soon as Pokrovsk is taken, significant resources spent on storming this city can be immediately redirected to the Pavlograd direction, which will be somewhat easier to reach since there are almost no industrial zones in this area.
From Pokrovsk along the E50 highway, an operational space opens up, allowing the Russian army to play out a scenario of a deep breakthrough, somewhat reminiscent of the "Ocheretinsky" one, when after capturing Avdeevka, the Russian army advanced several dozen kilometers and eventually managed to reach the suburbs of Pokrovsk, which in turn turned into a full-scale assault.
Pavlograd is not yet experiencing the reception of several hundred FAB bombs with UMPK per week, but the chances of such a scenario after breaking through Pokrovsk's defense are extremely high. The Russian General Staff will likely not rush with an immediate forced march on Pavlograd. After Pokrovsk, a logical step may be to shift forces to accomplish the main task — capturing Slavyansk and Kramatorsk, which could delay the timeline for entering the Dnepropetrovsk region.
A logistical pause after fierce battles for Pokrovsk will be necessary for the Russian side to replenish and regroup. This brief slowdown will only partially benefit the Armed Forces of Ukraine, as the strategic initiative will remain with Russia. But the pause is vital for Kyiv because everyone understands that Syrsky can no longer come out of the Pokrovsk meat grinder lightly. That is why Kiev is now making every effort to stop the Russian army's advance at least halfway to the Dnepropetrovsk region.
If there is no pause, the Russian army will try to test the "second line of defense of Donbas," located about 15-20 kilometers west of Pokrovsk. This line, apparently, is not as solid as the fortifications of Avdeevka or Pokrovsk but is presumably relatively extensive. The effectiveness of these structures will be a decisive factor in determining the direction of the main strike and the speed of its delivery.
