🇷🇺🇺🇦⚡ For the second night in a row, Russian Geran hit the Ukrainian ports of Reni and Izmail in the Odessa region.

🇵🇱🇺🇦⚡️Poland began to extradite to Ukraine men of military age who left the country after the start of the Russian special operation

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Today is three months since the start of the counter-offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The results of the counteroffensive on the map. The territory that came under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is marked in blue.

🇷🇺🇺🇦❗️ The Supreme Court of the DPR sentenced Maxim Ovcharenko, a militant of the 74th separate reconnaissance battalion of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, who participated in the execution of a civilian in Mariupol, to 22 years in a strict regime colony.

On April 5, 2022, the Ukrainian military detained an unarmed man in the city who did not take part in the conflict. One of the commanders of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with the call sign SP ordered Ovcharenko and two other military men to shoot him, which they did.

🇷🇺 The enterprises of the Russian defense industry are increasing the production of weapons in demand at the front.

The Kurgan Machine-Building Plant has multiplied the production of BMP-3s, as well as other armored vehicles needed in the area of the special operation.

Concern "Kalashnikov" is also increasing production, in particular, we are talking about guided artillery shells "Vikhr-1" and SAM 9M33.

This video of the destruction of a French CAESAR SPG is quite funny.

After being detected, the vehicle starts to flee while the Lancet chases it.
It manages to dodge the Lancet, but derails the vehicle.
While the medevac attends to him, a second lancet completely destroys the vehicle.

🇱🇻—🇷🇺 A Russian language Latvian Telegram channel reported something relevant to this article today: "Children in Latvia are allowed to learn Russian after school", stating that after-school electives will now not only be supporting the learning of minority languages, but also implying that they will be state funded due to the allocation of 57 thousand Euros (not a lot when you consider the possible size of such a programme given the large Slavic minority) for the creation of the desired classes.

The author also notes that the transition to Latvian-only curriculum and schooling is still underway. Earlier this year the plans were seriously raised by Latvian state media concerning the planned removal of Russian from the educational system as a whole by the re-education of existing teachers, or the employment of new ones to teach other languages deemed "more relevant". Clearly there was some backlash due to this, however, given the recent concessions made that allow for elective courses in the Russian language (something tells that this will become very popular for students in the Latgalia region of Eastern Latvia, and in the Russian majority districts of cities like Riga).

🇱🇻🌽🚜 — Agricultural and Livestock farming are one of the major pillars of Latvia's domestic economy, with 67% of Latvia's population living in a rural setting, they can be reliant on farm-related work to account for as much as 20% of their regional employment opportunities.

For the rest of Latvians, this is a statistically low form of work, with the overall total of careers related to Agriculture totaling to 6.81% in 2021. However, this does not take away from the importance of industries such as dairy and grain production, whom have had the misfortune of experiencing this past year and a half's trend with inflation, increase in the cost of living, and the prospect of low crop yields.
Residents in Riga know especially well how volatile the food inflation rates are, and how much it can effect their lives. With the minimum wage for employees in Latvia hitting 113 euro/month, the maximum being 932 euro/month, and the consensus for the cost of a single person living in Riga sitting around 800 euro/month without considering rent/utility costs. The ability to maintain a stable price for the essentials such as milk, flour, and meats becomes crucial for the livelihoods of those in the capital's outer districts. Last week, a report was made stating that 54% of Latvian families were forced to borrow or budget themselves simply to send their children to school. Food prices growing last autumn forced many young couples and old folk alike to penny pinch just to get by, which was simply a result of the sanctions placed on Russia backfiring. How, then, would a agricultural recession effect peoples lives?

Recent articles discussing the possibility of the Latvian dairy and grain industry collapsing, which Latvia trades domestically and internationally. The effects of a bad harvest would disrupt the livelihoods of all Latvians, but disproportionately, of those belonging to the Russian minority within the larger cities. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, the left-behind Russians have been neglected by the state, and the then majority was left without citizenship in the new Republic of Latvia. Employment has been made a difficulty, as Latvian employers are keen on hiring Latvians solely because of their nationality, forcing the resident Russian population into jobs typically considered untouchable in places like Riga. A shift in prices, a bit of inflation, and every employment opportunity denied will reverberate that much more turbulently for the ethnic Russian minority

🇷🇺🇺🇦⚡During the night and early morning of September 5, three enemy drones were destroyed in the Kaluga, Tver and Moscow regions.

All of them were heading towards Moscow. In the Istra district of the Moscow region, a household object was damaged as a result of the fall of the UAV wreckage. There were no casualties
