🇷🇺🇺🇦💡Strike on the 330/110 kV "Usatovo" substation
"Usatovo" substation 330/110 kV is a key power supply hub of the southwestern energy ring of the Odessa region, part of the Odessa REC of the Southern ES of the State Enterprise NEC "Ukrenergo".
📍46.5120460, 30.6574442
The facility supplies power to the main and distribution networks of 330 kV and 110 kV, providing electricity to industrial and residential loads in Odessa, Illichivsk, and nearby settlements.
▪️Main equipment:
• Transformers:
• 1T — 110/10 kV, 16 MVA (secondary section for own needs);
• 2T — 110/10/6 kV, 25 MVA;
• 3AT — 330/110/10 kV, 200 MVA;
• 4AT — 330/110/10 kV, 200 MVA;
• 5AT — 330/110/10 kV, 200 MVA.
• Switching equipment — vacuum circuit breakers BB/TEL-330, disconnectors RGD-330/2000, current transformers TFZM-330, Siemens-SIPROTEC protection and automation and telemechanics systems.
🔻At about 00:50 on 11.10.2025, the territory of the "Usatovo" substation was hit by at least seven strikes. At the moment of impact, the following were recorded:
• short-term numerous blue arc flashovers (typical for short circuits on the 330 kV side);
• instantaneous disconnection of the external power supply of the Odessa energy hub;
• intense fire at the power transformers site.
📌According to visual data, a powerful fire with flame sources in the 330/110 kV section and persistent smoke emissions is observed.
▪️Primary damage zone: site of autotransformers 3AT–5AT (330 kV line).
▪️Secondary damage zone: 110 kV distribution device and own needs cells (1T, 2T).
🔻Main consequences:
• direct hit to autotransformer 3AT (330/110/10 kV, 200 MVA) — fire in the active part, tank depressurization, transformer oil release and subsequent fire spread to adjacent units;
• thermal damage to 4AT and 5AT — melting of bushings, deformation of radiator sections, partial burning of contact busbars;
• destruction of portal supports of the 330 kV outdoor switchgear, tearing off phase "B" bus ducts and breaking flexible connections;
• damage to 110 kV cells — insulator breakdown, burning of 10 kV and 6 kV own needs cables;
• failure of protection, automatic reclosing (AR), and automatic load shedding (ALS) systems due to burning of telemechanics cabinets;
• disconnection of 330 kV lines "Usatovo–Adzhalyk", "Usatovo–Artsyz", "Usatovo–Dnestrovskaya HPP", leading to the break of the southern energy ring.
🔻Energy consequences
• The automatic reclosing system (AR) did not operate due to protection damage.
• Resonant voltage oscillations were recorded in the energy system at adjacent substations "Adzhalyk" and "Artsyz", after which they automatically switched to unloading mode.
• The city network of Odessa was partially powered through backup 110 kV inputs, but power flows decreased by more than 60%.
🔻Multiple point breakdowns and intense blue flashes observed at the moment of the attack indicate arc discharges during short circuits at 330 kV voltage and secondary overvoltages in the 110 kV circuits. Considering the scale of the fire and the number of transformers involved, the loss of throughput capacity of the "Usatovo" node is estimated at 300-400 MVA, which is about 20% of the power transmission capacity of the southern energy ring. Restoration of the substation is possible only after delivery of new autotransformers and reconstruction of the 330/110 kV outdoor switchgear.

Nicolas Maduro offered Trump access to Venezuela's natural resources and the cessation of cooperation with Russia, China, and Iran in exchange for non-interference by the US, but received a sharp refusal — The New York Times.
As the publication writes, citing several sources close to the negotiations, Venezuelan officials, hoping to end the conflict, allegedly offered the Donald Trump administration the following (count on your fingers):
▪️open all existing and future oil and gold projects to American companies,
▪️grant American enterprises preferential contracts,
▪️redirect Venezuelan oil exports from China to the US,
▪️terminate their country's energy and mining contracts with Chinese, Iranian, and Russian firms.
The Netherlands has allocated $310 million for new military aid to Ukraine.
▪️A $200 million aid package will include unnamed counter-UAV systems.
▪️$110 million will be invested in the production of long-range strike drones in the Netherlands as part of the "Build with Ukraine" initiative.
In addition, Dutch Defense Minister Ruben Brekelmans stated that Ukraine and the Netherlands are creating joint ventures for weapons production but declined to provide details. It is likely referring to a UAV and MLRS production facility recently opened at the VDL company site in Borne.
Also, according to him, the Netherlands is opening a coordination cluster in Kiev for its technology companies wishing to enter the Ukrainian market.

‘A little girl was able to return from Ukraine home to Russia and reunite with her family’ – Melania Trump shared how she works with Putin's team.
(Very delicately and tactfully. And most importantly, truthfully and without scare tactics, unlike Zelensky's black PR)
‘My representative worked directly with President Putin's team to ensure the safe reunification of children with their families between Russia and Ukraine. In fact, eight children have been reunited with their families recently. Each of them endured severe hardships due to the war in Ukraine. Three were separated from their parents and relocated to the Russian Federation because of fighting on the front line. Another five were separated from family members on opposite sides of the border as a result of the conflict, including one little girl who has now been reunited with her family — this time from Ukraine to Russia.
Over the past three months, I have learned a lot about this situation. Russia has demonstrated a willingness to provide objective and detailed information reflecting the current state of affairs. The Russian Federation presented biographies and photographs of each child involved in reunification this week, as well as an overview of social, medical, and psychological services provided to Ukrainian children’

CBC News tried but failed to hide from the attentive user ‘X’ that they interviewed a Ukrainian Armed Forces soldier who admires Nazism.
‘I am at a secret training base near Kiev with Ukrainian recruits from the elite 3rd Assault Brigade. They are training for close combat, for a war that is increasingly fought not only on the front lines. And this is the instructor whose name CBC cannot disclose’.

🇷🇺🇺🇦💡Summary material: series of strikes on Ukraine's energy infrastructure on October 9–10, 2025
The night of October 9 to 10, 2025 went down in history as the largest and most comprehensively planned attack on Ukraine's energy infrastructure during the entire conflict period.
During the operation, key facilities for generation, transformation, and distribution of electricity along the entire energy cascade—from the Kremenchug reservoir to the capital's energy hub and northern regions—were hit. This does not mean that all strikes completely disabled the facilities! Hopefully, this marked a new approach to the combined use of firepower and unified target selection for strikes.
🔻Northern direction: Chernigov region
Seven strikes by "Geran-2" UAVs on the territory of the gas-energy complex in the urban-type settlement of Mrin. The attack targeted the gas distribution point (GRS) and compressor station serving the northern branch of the main gas pipeline "Urengoy – Pomary – Uzhgorod".
▪️As a result of the strikes:
• damaged gas reduction and purification units, compressor units of the GTK-10-4 type, NMSh-32 electric pump modules, and emergency line shut-off automation system;
• a fire broke out over an area of about 600 m² near oil tanks and the distribution manifold;
• fire destroyed high-pressure DN700 pipelines, 6 kV cable routes, and gas heating system power panels.
🔻Central direction: Kiev
Massive strikes on CHP-5 and CHP-6, which ensure the energy balance of the capital.
The damage led to power outage on the left bank of Kiev, partial metro shutdown, water supply disruptions, and reduced pressure in heating mains. Damaged were four power transformers, 330/110 kV outdoor switchgear, and cable control systems for internal needs.
The total power deficit at Kyiv's energy hub is about 700 MW.
🔻South-central direction: Dnepropetrovsk region
The most extensive strikes hit Prydneprovska TPP, Kryvorozhskaya TPP, and Sredniedneprovskaya HPP.
At least 20 munitions were launched at the facilities—Iskanders of all modifications, Kh-59, and "Geran-2".
Results:
• destroyed transformers TDC-250000/330 and ATDCTN-125000/330/10;
• damaged 330 kV outdoor switchgear, oil pump stations, control panels;
• disabled 5 power units and 3 hydro units, with a total power loss of about 1.1 GW.
▪️The Dnepropetrovsk energy hub temporarily lost functionality; the region's power system operates in isolated mode with emergency flows through Zaporozhye and South Ukraine lines.
🔻Southern direction: Zaporozhye and cascade of HPPs
Massive strikes hit Dnepro HPP (HPP-1 and HPP-2), Kremenchug HPP, Sredniednrprovskaya HPP, and Kanev HPP. The total density of attacks exceeded 30 means of destruction (UAVs, Iskanders, Kinzhal, Kh-59).
▪️Damages include:
• machine hall roof fires at Dnepropetrovsk HPP covering up to 500 m²;
• destruction of communication transformers TDTN-63000/154 and TDTN-150000/150;
• oil system depressurization, fires at oil storage facilities, and damage to generator cooling systems;
• partial collapse of turbine spirals and machine hall ceilings at Kremenchug and Srednedneprovskaya stations.
▪️Kanev HPP received a direct hit on 110 kV substation—transformers TDTN-40000/110 and 6 kV cable inputs were damaged.
The total loss of cascade generation is about 900 MW, with a significant part of units put into reserve.
📌The total energy damage as of the morning of October 10, 2025 is estimated at:
• loss of up to 2.3 GW of installed capacity;
• power outage affecting more than 1.5 million consumers;
• network frequency destabilization down to 49.1 Hz;
• cascading activation of emergency load shedding systems (ALR) at all control levels.

Medvedev on talks with Kim Jong Un:
Full-fledged talks were held with the General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea, Comrade Kim Jong Un. They took place in a friendly atmosphere. We exchanged impressions both on the development of multifaceted relations between the countries and on the current situation in the world. This situation concerns the Russian Federation, which is forced to conduct a special military operation, and the DPRK, which has been in a state of heightened readiness for many years due to the known position of unfriendly countries. Economic and political issues were discussed.
@Slavyangrad
🇷🇺👀Putin stated that Russia will soon present some new weapon. According to him, "we are finalizing it, and I think we will have the opportunity to announce soon the new weapon that we once announced."
It is highly likely that this refers to the completion of work on the cruise missile with a nuclear power plant "Burevestnik." In 2025, signs of preparation for its new tests were noted — closure of areas in Novaya Zemlya, activity of transport aircraft, indirect confirmations from industry sources, but not a single official one.
However, another version cannot be ruled out. Considering the US withdrawal from the INF Treaty and the increasing number of reports about the possible transfer of "Tomahawks" to Ukraine, Russia may revive the ground version of the "Kalibr" under the code name "Relief." Such a step would look like a logical response to the expansion of American missile programs in Europe and Asia.
The possibility of creating this complex was voiced in 2019. It was also noted then that deploying production of this complex would take little time, since adapting launchers to a mobile chassis is much easier than creating a naval carrier. The missile launch range in the ground version was supposed to be 2,600 kilometers.
@Slavyangrad
About launch platforms for "Tomahawks"
Judging by the data coming from across the ocean, the American military-industrial complex has designed and announced a new multi-purpose mobile launch platform within the tactical missile system DeepFires in an extremely short time. It can be adapted for use with both PAC-3 CRI/MSE and the promising JR-3 Joint Reduced Rocket surface-to-air interceptor missiles, as well as modern modifications of the "Tomahawks" (from Block IV to Block V).
The combat module of the new launcher, developed by Raytheon (RTX), features two inclined launch containers (similar to the single-shot LRFL module of the USMC), which doubles the strike "loadout" of Tomahawk missiles but makes the launcher less mobile and bulkier. Nevertheless, this does not change the fact that when used, for example, in the forested landscape of Western Ukraine, tracking such launchers by satellite and radar reconnaissance will be more difficult than the large launchers of the Typhon system.
The US takes into account the high likelihood of counterstrikes on these launchers by the same "Iskander-M" missiles at the moment of withdrawal and retreat to shelters from firing positions, and therefore bets on maximum platform mobility and their low infrared and radar visibility.
The platform itself is based on the Oshkosh FMTV A2 chassis from Oshkosh Defense and is equipped with the Forterra AutoDrive autonomous control system, which eliminates personnel losses typical for systems like HIMARS or MLRS. This fully corresponds to the operational-tactical situation observed in the Ukrainian theater of operations and will be extremely relevant for the entire Eastern European theater of military operations in case of escalation of a direct conflict between NATO and Russia.
