The author wrote that a Russian missile specifically targeted a residential area in Kharkiv the evening before. Three civilians were killed and 20 were injured. He described footage of the attack as disturbing and linked it to the AfD, BSW, the Left Party, and an end to German assistance. https://t.co/6fGUYcI3BZ #Charkiw #Russland #Zivilopfer #RU #DE #UA (translated)

Regina Laska wrote that Donald Trump announced an immediate energy ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine and stated that both sides had agreed. According to her, Volodymyr Zelensky initially had no knowledge of this. Later, he said the report was new to him, but Ukraine was ready to cease attacks on Russian energy facilities, provided that Russia would no longer attack Ukrainian power plants. Laska wrote that there was no initial confirmation from the Kremlin, and Russian attacks continued. According to Ukrainian sources, among others, power plants in Kyiv and Kharkiv were hit. She also referred to Trump's earlier claim from September 14 that both sides had agreed to spare energy facilities; however, a sustainable ceasefire did not emerge from that. The author placed the announcement within a series of Trump's statements: on Friday, he announced a diesel deal with Putin and a US waiver for Russian diesel deliveries; on Saturday, he said Ukraine needed a new president; and on Sunday, he declared a ceasefire, to which this president allegedly agreed. Laska described this as contradictory since Zelensky had simultaneously been portrayed by Trump as a potential negotiating partner, even though he was unaware of the agreement. Furthermore, Laska wrote that seven US senators - four Republicans and three Democrats - legally challenged Trump's diesel deal with Putin. They accused the government of not involving Congress as required and demanded the withdrawal of the deal. While the US Treasury had issued a license, its sufficient legal basis was disputed. In a satirical scene, Laska imagined Trump reacting by putting down his phone, splattering a freshly painted wall while drinking, and possibly firing the painter afterward. #Trump #Ukraine #Russland (translated)

Anna wrote that Kiev was without electricity and water supply after a Russian attack on the CHP-5 thermal power plant in Kharkiv. As a result, the US energy ceasefire was broken – just a few hours after Trump had announced it. https://t.co/tu30GUkmV1 #Kiew #Energiekrise #Russland (translated)

The author wrote that Russians celebrated the attack on the most important thermal power plant in the Kharkiv region. This happened shortly after another lie from the man in the White House, which he described as shameless. He also claimed that no one took this seriously, especially not in Moscow. https://t.co/PiqDfEburN #Russland #Charkiw #Politik #RU #UA #US (translated)

Regina Laska wrote that Donald Trump promised hundreds of thousands of tons of Russian diesel after a phone call with Vladimir Putin. The U.S. Treasury then allowed an exemption from the sanctions. Given the midterms in four weeks and a diesel price at record levels, Laska interpreted the move as a possible campaign maneuver. In mid-September, Trump publicly called on Volodymyr Zelensky to stop attacks on Russian refineries. According to a Reuters report led by Laska, at that time three of the six largest Russian diesel refineries were shut down or operating at limited capacity. She also pointed to a Russian export ban on diesel until the end of October and noted that Russia imported almost seven times as much diesel from Belarus from January to July as in the same period of the previous year. Deputy Prime Minister Novak is now talking about surpluses, she wrote; however, it is unclear whether the announced delivery quantities and deadlines will actually be met. Zelensky offered to stop Ukrainian attacks on Russian refineries if Russia ends its attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure. Laska referred to this as a symmetrical de-escalation offer that is on the table for the Americans. She also cited rocket attacks on a residential building in Pryluky, glide bombs on city buses in Kramatorsk, and shelling of the energy supply in Kyiv, Dnipro, Kharkiv, and Odesa. She warned that Russia would respond to the diesel with terrorism. The EU also criticized Laska: On September 22, Usmanov and Fridman were removed from the sanctions list under pressure from France, Slovakia, and Luxembourg. According to Laska, Zelensky pointed out that the attacks had since increased. At the same time, the EU extended the remaining personal sanctions from six months to three years. Latvia had long resisted the compromise and ultimately paved the way for it by abstaining. Laska compared Trump's diesel concession to Russia with the European compromise in favor of unanimity. In her view, the costs of such agreements are borne not by their authors but by the people in Pryluky, Kramatorsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Oleshkiv. #Trump #Putin #Dieselpreise (translated)

Several explosions in Ukraine have resulted in two deaths and injuries to five others, including one child, in connection with nighttime attacks on residential areas and vehicles in cities such as Zaporizhzhia, Kharkiv, Sumy, Kyiv, and Odesa. #Ukraina #Kriget #Explosioner (translated)

Free Ukraine reported that the night before Tuesday was the first when AI-controlled air defense units were officially deployed in Kyiv and that the operation seemed to have worked well. According to Free Ukraine, the Sky Sentinel systems had already been used for a long time in Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhia. The author wrote that the weapon systems themselves could calculate the location, distance, and speed of targets, rotate 360 degrees, and shoot in all directions at a speed of 800 km/h. They could also be manually remote-controlled, which, according to Free Ukraine, yielded better results under certain conditions. #AI #Luftvärn #Kyjiv (translated)
