путин намерен уничтожить зимой вообще всю украинскую инфраструктуру, пишет FT
Издание ссылается на два источника, которые участвовали в неофициальных попытках положить конец войне. Они заявили, что путин рассматривает авиаудары как месть за атаки украинских беспилотников на нефтяную инфраструктуру и бизнес-склады в России, а также обвиняет Киев в срыве предыдущих соглашений о прекращении огня.
"Я уничтожу всю вашу инфраструктуру, пока вы не согласитесь. К следующему году от Украины не останется никакой инфраструктуры. Все мосты, порты, железные дороги, энергетическая инфраструктура, электростанции… будут разрушены", - сказал один из источников FT, передавая позицию путина.

ВСУ начали использовать израильские спутниковые терминалы HiSKY для ударов по рф, ноет русня
Данный терминал обеспечивает меньшую пропускную способность чем Starlink, однако его возможностей достаточно для обмена телеметрией и передачи удалённых команд управления, включая изменение маршрута и корректировку полётного задания
Главное преимущество израильского спутника в том, что терминал работает над всей территорией РФ. HiSKY не имеет собственной спутниковой группировки и подключается к различным коммерческим спутникам на орбите
Zelenskyy: Russia preparing to launch further strikes on energy sector and bridges across Dnipro
Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has warned that Russia is preparing to carry out further strikes targeting the energy sector, bridges across the Dnipro River and civilian infrastructure.
Source: Zelenskyy's evening address on 6 November
Quote: "We now have intel that another strike is being prepared – targeting our energy sector, bridges across the Dnipro, and civilian infrastructure. The Air Force and the Armed Forces of Ukraine overall are preparing to protect us. It's not easy.
We need interceptor missiles for our Patriots. Every agreement matters, and every day counts when it comes to deliveries. We're asking our partners very strongly: please don't put off deliveries."
Details: Zelenskyy said he had spoken with the team responsible for long-range strikes, and he announced that there will be corresponding strikes against Russia.
Quote: "Today I also had an important conversation with the NB8 countries – the Nordic and Baltic states. They have been briefed on our needs ahead of winter. And we're counting on that support coming.
We're not letting up on efforts to get meetings organised – formats involving the Americans, Europeans and Russians. It is not easy, but we need to get onto the diplomatic track and move towards ending the war. We are coordinating with our partners. Ukraine is doing everything to make peace happen.
The Commander-in-Chief and I are preparing personnel decisions in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. I want to thank everyone serving Ukraine!"

Norway to allocate around €50m for salaries, pensions and social benefits in Ukraine
Norway will channel 500 million Norwegian kroner (approximately €50 million) to Ukraine through the World Bank to support the functioning of vital public services.
Source: a statement by the Norwegian government, as reported by European Pravda
Details: As noted, during this difficult time for Ukraine, Norway is providing 500 million Norwegian kroner to Ukraine's state budget via the World Bank. These funds will help maintain the operation of critical public services and ensure the payment of salaries, pensions and social benefits in the civilian sector at the beginning of 2027.
Quote from Norwegian Foreign Minister Espen Barth Eide: "Ukraine's resilience also depends on keeping everyday life going, even as the war continues. Norway is helping to ensure that children can go to school, hospitals can treat patients and pensioners can receive their pensions."
Details: Norway's support also strengthens Ukraine's position in any future negotiations with Russia. Norway previously has also provided assistance to meet the urgent financial needs of Ukraine's state budget.
The funding is provided through the World Bank's multi-donor trust fund, which reimburses verified expenditures for salaries, pensions, and social benefits in the civilian sector, particularly in healthcare, education and emergency services.
This support will help ensure payments to vulnerable households, pensioners, and public sector workers. It will also contribute to meeting financial needs at the end of the year and represents Norway's first contribution to financing Ukraine's civilian state budget in 2027.
Background:
• In late October, the Norwegian government announced 500 million kroner (€48 million) in aid to Ukraine's energy system ahead of winter.
• On 16 October, Sweden announced a 500 million kronor (almost €45 million) aid package to support Ukraine's energy infrastructure ahead of winter.
• On 16 October, Volodymyr Zelenskyy told EU member state leaders that Ukraine needs at least €70 billion to defend itself against Russian aggression next year.

Зеленский заявил, что предложенная Трампом "сделка о безопасности" может быть потенциально опасной
"Я не вижу никакой демонстрации и сигналов от России, что они готовы сделать что-то [в этом направлении]. Вот почему на мой взгляд это опасно. Когда они хотят не говорить о том, как закончить эту войну, я имею в виду Россию, они хотят начать с новой инфраструктуры безопасности в Европе. Это опасно", - сказал Зеленский в эфире CNN.
По его словам, идея Трампа несет больше рисков для Европы, а не для Украины:
"Мы не часть Европы, мы на пути, но мы не члены ЕС. И также мы не член НАТО. Поэтому я не говорю от имени НАТО и ЕС, но это опасно для всех нас. Мы все живем в Европе. Мы не хотим, чтобы была Ялта-2. Мы не готовы к такому формату. Мы не хотим, чтобы Россия разделила нас. И, конечно, суверенитет и территориальная целостность – это ключевой вопрос для любого независимого государства"

Finland calls on US to show "political willingness" and hand over already paid-for missiles to Ukraine
Finnish Defence Minister Antti Häkkänen has accused the US of lacking political will, which has caused delays in supplying Ukraine with Patriot interceptor missiles already paid for by European allies.
Source: Häkkänenin an interview with Euronews, as reported by European Pravda
Details: Häkkänenin said that European countries have already financed interceptor missiles for Ukraine, but political factors on the part of the US are hindering the delivery of this weaponry to the Ukrainian forces.
Quote: "Now is the most critical time to have all the air defence capabilities for Ukraine. We have the funding, now we need the stocks to be delivered to Ukraine. But we need the political willingness also from the US side to start the deliveries."
Details: President Volodymyr Zelenskyy previously reported that Ukraine has been waiting for nearly a month for US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to sign off on missiles for Patriot and NASAMS air defence systems. No official explanation for the apparent delay in supplies has been provided.
The Finnish defence minister stressed that Europe has already paid for these systems and is calling on Washington to fulfill its obligations.
When asked whether Hegseth bears personal responsibility for the delay, Häkkänen replied that he does not know who exactly is to blame for this situation.
Quote: "I'm not familiar with what is the main problem, but we know that the Ukrainians need Patriots. Europeans have given the funding for that and now it's only a matter of political arrangements."
Details: Meanwhile, a NATO source told Euronews that the supreme allied commander Europe is urging seven member states to provide Ukraine with more missiles from their own stockpiles. However, these countries are in no rush to do so without guarantees that the US will replace what they provide.
Background:
• Ukrainian Defence Minister Yevhenii Khmara called on the E5 countries – Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Poland, and Italy – to consider transferring 10% of their stockpiles of interceptor missiles for Patriot and IRIS-T systems to Ukraine in exchange for future deliveries awaited by Kyiv.
• Zelenskyy said Ukraine has been receiving an average of only 12 missiles per month for Patriot systems in 2026.

St George's ribbons, Russian anthem and army draft notices: 13 children and teenagers rescued from occupation
Over the first week of November 2026, 13 children and teenagers have been successfully brought back from the occupation to Ukrainian-controlled territory. Some of them received draft notices for the Russian army, were forced to wear St George's ribbons, and had to sing the Russian anthem every day at school.
Source: Save Ukraine and Bring Kids Back UA organisations
Details: One of the rescued children was 13-year-old Andrii. He was brought back to Ukrainian-controlled territory from a town where Russian drones purposefully hunt civilians.
Andrii was forced to attend a Russian school, otherwise his parents would be deprived of custody. At school, Andrii had to undergo ideological tests and draw Russian soldiers.
Thirteen-year-old Nina was also rescued. Her parents did not want to send their daughter to a Russian school, but they were threatened with reprisal. At school, Nina was forced to wear St George's ribbons and sing the Russian anthem daily.
Among those rescued is 18-year-old Luka. He has serious health problems, yet as soon as he reached adulthood, he immediately received a draft notice. Luka's house was seized by the Russians and he was forced to study at a Russian school due to blackmail.
The children are currently undergoing reintegration, receiving psychological support and being assisted with documents and housing.
Background: In August, 34 Ukrainian children were successfully brought back from the occupation within a single week.

Schumer explained how Democrats were able to win in traditionally “red” states
Democratic Minority Leader in the US Senate Chuck Schumer said that the party saw early opportunities for victory even where Republicans are traditionally strong.
B Iowa voters were unhappy with Trump's tariffs, which hit soybean producers.
In northern states such as Maine and Alaskabordering Canada, discontent was caused by the trade war with Ottawa. The tariffs have complicated cross-border trade, hit local businesses and driven up prices.
B Ohio Democrats took advantage of protest sentiments surrounding the construction of numerous data centers. People feared rising electricity bills, excessive water consumption, and tax breaks given to technology corporations at the expense of local budgets.
Selecting candidates who know their states well was key, Schumer said.
Now the party expects victory in Mississippi, where the senator estimates Republican Cindy Hyde-Smith could also lose. The counting of votes in the state continues.
