In the Hulyaipole and Pokrovske directions, over the past week, Ukraine's defence east of the Yanchur River has collapsed, allowing for substantial Russian progress to be made.
In the north, Russian forces were able to break through from the positions west of Novoivanivka, where they began pushing west and northwest up a line of small, separated trenches, which were left largely undefended by the AFU due to their severe lack of manpower in this direction. The trenches were mostly covered by FPV drones, but a lack of drone operators allowed for the Russians to advance even quicker, rapidly approaching the village of Pryvilne, and bypassing Novohryhorivka.
With Novohryhorivka in a dangerous salient, any remaining Ukrainian soldiers withdrew, allowing for the Russians to infiltrate the village and establish control over it, as well as the positions to the north, west, and south. At the same time, assault operations were carried out towards Pavlivka from the north, which is now in a grey zone and covered by drones.
To the southeast, Russian forces closed the distance to the Yanchur River, pushing along the treelines, and downhill from the tactical heights into the village of Novovasylivkse, which was quickly brought under control following a Ukrainian withdrawal over the river. The Russians were also able to establish control over the part of Novomykolaivka situated east of the river, as well as the treelines to the southeast, leading to a tributary of the river.
In the south, Russian forces broke through from positions west of Olhivske to the hamlet of Okhotnyche, which was quickly captured, alongside the treelines on the tactical heights to the south. Additionally, Russian forces secured the rest of the houses of Poltavka east of the river, and improved their positions in the direction of the village from the southeast, as well as north of Malynivka.

Russian authorities have seized assets worth around $50 billion since the start of Moscow's "special military operation" in Ukraine... Besides the Western assets, major domestic companies have changed hands on the basis of including corruption claims, alleged privatisation violations, or poor management.

SEIZING PRIVATE PROPERTY
Although the complaint did not question the seizure itself, the central bank ruled that the state had failed to make an obligatory buyout offer to shareholders in a public company and asked the state property agency to execute the offer.
"The state's actions in the UGC case are undermining the last semblance of private property rights in Russia," one source with knowledge of discussions, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the situation [you betcha], told Reuters.
Good article, nice to see some small pushback. Hopefully we won't be reading the names of those that went on record here in the Ru obits soon.
I hate to blame the victims but what exactly did they expect when they invested in Russia? The rule of law has always been just eye candy in Moscow. The Magnitsky case in 2009 highlighted this for everyone. But denial is a powerful force, and investing in Russia was just stupid.

SCOTUS refuses to hear appeal from Russian Sberbank regarding lawsuits against it for damages.
IMO, this is added support for use of Russian funds, primarily in Belgium, as it is being allowed in the US.
Yes, that's all Brussels has been asking for, a claim on the Russian funds based on a legal action proven in the courts. They have always been uncomfortable with giving up control of this money based on moral grounds.
The extension of liability from Sberbank to the Ru government as owners of record of the Brussels portfolio will have to be done but that door was kicked open by the US Supreme Court. And being that all the funds are under one ownership actually facilitates this extension.
With this US decision in their pockets as a guideline, I am guessing there will be 298 claims on that portfolio very soon. That's 283 passengers and 15 crew. The Dutch have been working towards this end for eleven years now and have been in a bloodthirsty mood every day.
With $300 billion now open to legal action, every lawyer in Europe will be bloodthirsty. Let's just hope they leave enough for the Ukrainian arms purchases.

At this point ukros are likely sending drones loaded with napalm so if it misses there is a cope of "something burning".
I wouldnt image a serious army doing that, but Ukros are so dependent on PR they will waste assets and manpower for it. They got 100s of some very elite Ukrainian troops killed for photo op copium, thisbis well within their cringe spectrum of operations.

I'm more optimistic now than at anytime since the Counteroffensive that Russia is actually in trouble and likely will soon start to seek peace. There are several reasons:
- Russia is starting to really struggle to recruit new soldiers. The bonuses are already ridiculously high, and they aren't working. Putin would need to do a big mobilization soon, and he doesn't want to do that.
- Russian attacks in winter are likely to be more costly, as the lack of ground cover makes it easier for drones to spot troops.
- Ukrainian attacks on refineries and other oil and gas facilities are finally leading to long lines across Russia, and Ukraine is continually increasing those attacks. This could ultimately cripple the Russian economy.
- President Trump now seems firmly committed to allowing Europeans to buy whatever arms they want for Ukraine. And Europe still has hundreds of billions of dollars of frozen Russian assets.
- Russian armor depots are basically depleted. Russia essentially has to continue to fight with what they can now produce. There are almost no more Soviet reserves
Holy mother of all cope.
Every bit of this is easily verifiable. I posted simple facts, not opinion. Every single morning now, I can wake up and look at another Russian refinery (or depot, or some of piece of oil and gas infrastructure) that Ukraine has successfully hit. Here's today's, by the way:

A boiler facility = a fired heater to heat up the gas being processed
A pumping station = Compressor station.
It's not a very large facility as gas processing and NGL's fractionation goes. Many of the coastal facilities in Louisiana are 10X larger. Still hurts

Here is the napalm claimed by sing sing. What a loser he is

CitizenuKraine,
thats essentially how a fuel righ incindiery would burn. Ukros clearly lack the tech and range to load drones with enough high exlosive to make a substantial damage unless they hit fuel tanka, so resorting to incidiery for cope and updoots is clearly working on you. There's no way to verify the extent of the damage so helping coping nafoids is well within Ukro staryegy. Their goal is to keep money flowing and not to depress simps like you.

None of them were facts, but your coping fantasies, i.e. opinions. If cope like what you dropped on is was reality, Ukrainians would have retaken all the land they lost and pushed Russians to Ural mountains. Lol

Ukraine confirms strike on major gas processing plant in Russia’s Volgograd region
09.10.2025 12:20
The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has confirmed that overnight on October 9, Ukrainian Defense Forces struck the Korobkovsky Gas Processing Plant and the Yefimovka Linear Production Dispatch Station in Russia’s Volgograd region.
As reported by Ukrinform, the General Staff shared the update on Facebook.
The Korobkovsky Gas Processing Plant (located in Kotovo, Volgograd region) is one of the largest facilities in southern Russia for the primary processing of natural and associated petroleum gas. The plant has a design capacity of 450 million cubic meters of natural and associated gas per year and produces up to 186,000 tons of wide light hydrocarbon fractions annually.
The Yefimovka LPDS (in Yefimovka, Volgograd region) is a station that services several main pipelines transporting oil and petroleum products across the region, with an annual throughput capacity of 50 million tons.
Explosions and fires were reported at both facilities, and the extent of the damage is still being assessed.

Power outages hit several oblasts after Russian attack, Chernihiv Oblast remains hardest affected
Alyona Kyrychenko — 9 October, 12:26
Russian forces have struck energy facilities in several oblasts over the past 24 hours, leaving consumers without power in parts of Ukraine as of the morning.
Source: Ukrenergo, Ukraine's state-owned electricity transmission operator
Details: Chernihiv Oblast remains the most severely affected.
Damage to equipment has forced Chernihivoblenergo, Chernihiv Oblast's distribution system operator, to implement rolling power outages across three queues simultaneously. [Ukrenergo defines a "queue" as a group of consumers and businesses using a specific amount of megawatts. The Dispatch Centre sets the number of queues needed across oblasts to address energy deficits. Critical infrastructure and industrial companies that import over 80% of their energy cannot be disconnected, according to a Ukrainian Cabinet resolution – ed.]
Emergency repair work continues in the oblast.
Drone strikes also damaged energy infrastructure in Odesa Oblast on the night of 8-9 October, leaving consumers without power. Power engineers are working to restore the supply as quickly as possible.
Ukrenergo adds that electricity consumption remains high. As of 9:30 on 9 October, demand matched the previous day.
Quote: "The reason is the persistent cloudy weather with rain across almost all of Ukraine. This reduces the efficiency of residential solar panels and leads to a corresponding rise in electricity consumption from the general grid."
More details: Given the weather conditions, Ukrenergo urges citizens to conserve energy and avoid running several high-power appliances simultaneously from 10:00 to 22:00.
Background:
In recent weeks, Russian forces have shifted their tactics against Ukrainian energy infrastructure, focusing on large-scale strikes on energy facilities within specific oblasts rather than across the entire national grid.
The city of Chornomorsk in Odesa Oblast was left in complete blackout following a Russian attack on 9 October.

A small plant for Louisiana or Texas. In th US they are sized by million cubic feet per day capacity. This is about 50 million or 50MM SCFD. Here the NGL's fractionation part would be skid mounted all pre-erected instead of being stick built onsite. The tonnage of NGL's is not that big a deal, and likely mostly for local use.
