Russian MoD says Ukrainian Forces are being prepared to use chemical munitions (Full Document in replies) https://x.com/MenchOsint/status/1828343626939654351
Chief of the radiation, chemical and biological protection troops of the Russian Armed Forces :
".. On July 13, 2024, information was received about the delivery of ammunition with irritating Chemical substances to units of the third airmobile battalion of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
In August 2024, during operational activities, substances containing a mixture based on thallium nitrate prepared for use were found in one of the Ukrainian Armed Forces caches. Let me remind you that thallium compounds are strong toxicants, affecting the central, peripheral nervous systems and the gastrointestinal tract. Numerous cases of their use for sabotage and criminal purposes are known.
Tactical mixtures of irritating substances included in List 3 of the CWC were also found.
Taking into account numerous provocations with toxic chemicals and assassination attempts on officials of new Russian regions, we do not rule out similar incidents using these samples.
According to operational information, Ukrainian Armed Forces servicemen are being trained to use chemical munitions for Western-made artillery systems. Please note the captured documentation found at abandoned Ukrainian positions - this is a methodological manual on handling artillery munitions loaded with chemical substances.
We believe that the international community needs to pay close attention to these issues, and the relevant organization - the OPCW - should take immediate measures to monitor compliance with the provisions of the Convention by Ukraine and prevent the development, production, stockpiling and use of chemical weapons."

Summary of the Russian Ministry of Defense on the progress of repelling the attempted invasion of the Armed Forces of Ukraine into the territory of the Russian Federation (as of August 27, 2024)
The Armed Forces continue to repel the attempted invasion of the Armed Forces of Ukraine into the territory of the Russian Federation.
Units of the North group of forces, with the support of army aviation and artillery fire, repelled 11 attacks by enemy assault groups in the direction of the settlements of Borki, Kulbaki, Kremyanoye Malaya Loknya, and also thwarted attempts to attack in the direction of Krasnooktyabrskoye, Olgovka and Cherkassk Porechnoye. As a result, the Ukrainian Armed Forces lost up to 65 people killed and wounded, an armored personnel carrier and eight armored combat vehicles were destroyed.
Reconnaissance and search operations are continuing to identify and destroy enemy sabotage groups in the forests that tried to penetrate deep into Russian territory.
Air strikes, artillery fire and military actions defeated concentrations of manpower and equipment of the 22nd, 61st and 115th mechanized, 80th and 82nd airborne assault brigades of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, as well as the 1004th brigade of protection and support in the areas of the settlements of Apanasovka, Borki, Bogdanovka, Viktorovka, October 10th, Kruglenkoe, Kazachaya Loknya, Lyubimovka, Mikhaylovka, Novoivanovka, Plekhovo and Snagost.

I don't believe those numbers because it's nearly same numbers every day.
Now Russia is losing more in Kursk:
Kursk direction: advancement of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Korenevsky district
what is known as of 11:00 on August 27, 2024
In the Kursk region, since yesterday, Ukrainian formations have launched a series of attacks in the Korenevsky district and were able to expand their zone of control in several areas.
In the Glushkovsky district, enemy drone strikes continue - a substation on the outskirts of Glushkovo and armored vehicles of the Russian Armed Forces in the village of Rzhava were attacked by drones. At the same time, the Armed Forces of Ukraine continue to try to disrupt supplies in the district.
The most tense situation remains in the Korenevsky district . Some time ago, the enemy tried to advance along the Blyakhovets River, occupying Gordeevka and Vnezapnoye . Now, Byakhovo and Viktorovka have come under the control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The village of Uspenovka , which remained deep in the rear of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and whose status was unclear, has now apparently been captured by the enemy.
Between Vnezapnoye and Kulbaki , some time ago, based on objective control footage, several armored vehicles of the Ukrainian Armed Forces were destroyed. However, there were no previous reports of battles in this area.
Now it turns out that the enemy has taken control of another route to Snagosti and can increase pressure on both Korenevo and advance westward into the Glushkovsky district along the border.
The latter option is worrying because the remaining intact crossings are located north of Tetkino in the Karyzha area. Now the Ukrainian Armed Forces can advance from east to west south of the Seim River, trapping the Russian Armed Forces in a river and border configuration.
In addition, to the east of Korenevo , according to objective control data, a Ukrainian armored vehicle was destroyed. However, it is unclear whether the enemy maintains a presence in the forest belts or whether the skeleton appeared in the first days of the Ukrainian Armed Forces' attacks on this area.
In the Sudzhansky district, attacks on identified enemy armored groups continue - one of them was destroyed in the vicinity of the village of Cherkasskoye Porechnoye , which was confirmed by objective control footage.

Maybe it is best if Russia removes forces from various parts of Ukraine. Better they try to hold territory of theirs.
Or be honest with their people how many soldiers they actually have than proclaiming to have 700K in Ukraine, and get more recruitment in order to get more Forces to sweep through Kursk. Contrary to most people here, Kursk is extremely important especially cause of the NPP, and it isn't smart to have an enemy with a massive force running around freely in such territory.

"Remove forces from Ukraine?" That is exactly what the nazi bastards in Washington, London, and Kiev want. My take as seen in the next post I make is that Russia is letting them to feed them lots of bombs, bullets, and shells. If Ukraine wants to send their best remaining forces into Kursk give em a Prokhorovka experience. Mine every inch of the front line, use artillery and airpower and just let them smash themselves to pieces and then when the time is right, go deep into Summy and role them into Summy and Kharkov, you don't need to take the city, use airpower and artillery to cut it off, create humanitarian corridors to allow civilians to flee, and treat the town like the Kurland pocket.

Well, they either start moving some troops (what would be 10K from eastern Ukraine if russia supposedly has 500K there) to Kursk or risk losing more territory in it, risking the NPP there. Because it seems Russia cannot hold its positions there even though they got the superior force.
I hate the ukies but this kursk situation is a **** up for Russia.
We don't even know what the Ukies want. By looks of it, they just want to create as much chaos as they can and kill more innocent Russian civilians. While Russians are constantly bombing them and hunting them, the Ukies are gaining ground. Which indicates Russia doesn't have much for defense lines.
The numbers Russia proclaims to have killed and what not, doesn't add up. If they killed that many per day, Ukraine would have no men left now. But Ukraine seems to drum up a lot of forces and making pushes on Russian territory.
So yes, I do believe Russian authorities are not honest here.

The other choice I can think of, is go at Sumy from the east/north and try to cut off Ukrainians supply line in the area, and taking Sumy entirely. Which they should.

Reasoning why russias lackluster of response in Kursk:
Russia may deliberately avoid rushing to push Ukrainian forces out of the Kursk region in order to weaken Ukrainian resistance in other areas of the front.
This opinion was expressed by former Deputy Chief of the UK Defence Staff, General Simon Mayall, in a comment to Sky News.
According to General Simon Mayall, the concentration of Ukrainian forces and Western weaponry in the Kursk region may divert attention from more important directions, such as Donbass.
"This could have negative consequences for the Ukrainians, as they have brought in quite a lot of foreign equipment, and they could just be sitting there, controlled by the Russians, without having a real impact on what is happening in Donbass," said the general.

In my very humble opinion this is very much what is happening. In the mind of the Kremlin, Donetsk, Lugansk, Kherson, Zaprozhiye, and Crimea are as much Russia as Kursk. The Ukrehrmacht makes inroads into another border province? Fine and good, they set themselves up for a slaughter. They kill Russian civilians and commit war crimes? It is lamentable but it shows the world, maybe not the western world, but the majority of the world what Russia is fighting for. Also, Kursk has no established logistics network and so forward operating groups with heavy NATO toys can't be repaired.

About time Russia started striking these bridges
Air strike destroys bridge in Sumy region
The bridge in the city of Akhtyrka is used by the Ukrainian Armed Forces to transfer troops to the borders of the Belgorod Region. Several attempts to break through have been recorded there recently. But the enemy is constantly being defeated. Some of the Ukrainian troops remain on the battlefield, while others leave via this bridge.

Don't worry about it man. Emotions are high.
I'm more worried about civilians and rather very upset at Russian authorities for their lackluster defense of Kursk.
On the topic of Kursk, something is interesting and I'm not sure why they chose this option but I'm presuming for training purposes. BUT:
Russian strategic missile force units, the elite forces used to defend strategic missile sites, are being used in the fighting in Kursk. I can only think for training. Otherwise, this may be a bad indication of lack of fighters in Russia.

I highly doubt this is true. Missiles forces aren't trained to the level of a rifleman and and the amount of money Russia has invested in their specialist training they wouldn't waste such forces in a role they would be terrible in. Russia still has reserves, mobilization, and more Chechens and volunteer forces to call on. Ask yourself this how many troops would a few missile sites bring to the the table? And bear in mind they aren't trained rifleman. Or would you rather call in the long list of plentiful sources of troops I mentioned above.
Right now Ukrainian forces in Kursk are making small gains while losing many skilled troops and western equipment in the process. All the while the Donbass front is collapsing. Maybe as mentioned by British officer that this is maybe the game has turned it into. Almost like turning a bad situation into something that's now beneficial. Ukraine is playing a game of robbing Peter (other fronts) to pay Paul (Kursk front) either way U look at it, it's a failure. I think when Kursk eventually fails for Ukraine and they roll back to Ukraine. The next move by Ukraine will be suicidal missions with F-16, followed by attacking Zaporozhye NPP. It's all they have left. Yes they might make an incursion into Belgorod but this will just be a distraction. Ukraine is not receiving much armour if any now from the west, the west has pretty much ram out of everything and only supplying ammo which is basically being made then sent across straight away. Ukraine or the west can't sustain this. All the while it loses troops especially skilled troops and eventually they will be left with mobilization forces (ill trained) who basically occupy trenches, ruined buildings, nothing more awaiting their death or they may revolt or surrender..but what's certain Ukraine can't win this.

Collapse accelerates 
while Ukro nazi trash and their Western backers busy themselves with public auto-fellatio over their self-induced wound in Kursk
Regarding the apparent re-emergence of Chicken Little-ism in the forum, may I humbly suggest that folks take a deep breath and calm the F down? Ukro faggots have lost close to 7k dead (of their BEST troops) and ~800 vehicles including "73 tanks, 34 infantry fighting vehicles, 62 armored personnel carriers, 432 armored fighting vehicles, and 201 other motor vehicles" (source). They are squandering their elite reserves in a failed gambit to make a difference, and Little Coke-Boi Zellie the Cross-Dressing Piano Player has allowed his regime to trap themselves in a no-win situation. They can't advance significantly (other than shuffling their forces around seeking short-term numerical advantage in an effort to claim isolated & insignificant hamlets) and their supply lines are openly exposed to destruction. They can't withdraw as that would be a shattering loss given the unhinged hyperbole that their PR spinmeisters have spun over the last few weeks, the damage to morale of both the Dog Soldier legion and the clueless maidan flag waver cohort would be off the scale
To distort an old Russian proverb, the Ukronazi mongrels keep whining but the Russian steamroller moves on...

It is said that the 3rd Ukrainian Brigade, also known as the fascist Azov Unit, acknowledged that Ukrainian forcres were running away from Pokrovsk, and Toretsk are threatened to be overwhelmed by Russians.
The fascist 3rd brigade also relocated more troops to Kharkov, and the situation in Kharkov is also bad for them.

I hate quote system on mobile phone so I'll just reply without quoting.
The part I got about missile forces fighting, is from ANNA news:
https://t.me/anna_news/70140
The Strategic Missile Forces were on the front lines in the Kursk region among other branches of the armed forces
The RVSN security and reconnaissance battalions normally guard missiles with nuclear warheads from attacks by saboteurs and other enemies. In terms of structure and armament, they are similar to motorized riflemen. That is why they are called RVSN motorized riflemen.
Along with other forces, they are currently driving out the enemy on Kursk soil. They are making do with conventional weapons, and have left missiles with nuclear warheads at their permanent locations.
True, like everyone else, they now have a need for drones.
Good comment too:
No details!
— No Essence.
In our rather large country there is more than one "positional area"*
Incomplete and unconfirmed information is not reliable.
Maybe they sent a couple of units, we will not say where from - immediately Noise-Hum...
"The plaster is being removed"..., the division* is leaving...

Regarding the apparent re-emergence of Chicken Little-ism in the forum, may I humbly suggest that folks take a deep breath and calm the F down? Ukro faggots have lost close to 7k dead (of their BEST troops) and ~800 vehicles including "73 tanks, 34 infantry fighting vehicles, 62 armored personnel carriers, 432 armored fighting vehicles, and 201 other motor vehicles" (source).

Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.
If the nazi want to visit kursk, russia will show them the same hospitality it showed them 9 decades ago over an extended stay so they can enjoy the once in a lifetime experience

Rybar is pretty much Ukr asset, I wouldn't give any amounts of shit about his comments
As for Kursk situation even fanboys on DefenseTalk have figured out that Ukrs have done fúcked up and are about to get spit roasted
Time to kick back and enjoy the snuff show

I remember saying that to defeat the Orcs , Russia could deliberately and repeatedly withdraw from small , non-significant geographic area that they liberated and invite the Orcs in ! Only to Fab them to death . You know , Wash - Rinse- Repeat ! In this way , the Orcs are thought a lesson : They can not win ! I think now that they are desperate enough to rush many troops into small , non-significant geographic area , as their only " winning , " trump card , then Kursk could prove a perfect trap ! No reason why the same mouse- trap , should not be used over and over again to catch more Rats ? Soon the Orcs troops , will be having nightmares " .....oh no , not the Kursk front....... "

Now Russia is losing more in Kursk:
What you are telling us is funny.
Anal Julian cried yesterday, that he sought any positive news on the frontline, and has found not a single one for his daily report.
So sorry, no nafo masturbation.
He has been eaten alive in the comments - as usual when he is a messenger of an inevitable sorrowful fate of piggies.
Maybe you should share some with him to make nafo masturbation fiesta begin?

While I agree with much of your sentiments, the cost to be incurred for this would be dead Russian civilians, and as much as it makes tactical sense I don't believe that the Russian gov or her people could accept such a price. Russians are not evil ruthless bastards like the scum who rule NATOstan or the fascist racists of Ukropi Banderaland, and it will be strategically counterproductive to descend to their gutter level. In this conflict Russia stands to win the hearts and minds of the great majority of the global south and of the BRICS in particular, and copying nazi tactics will undermine this vital process.

It is not just about ruthless tactics.
Sometimes in a war cold calculations are needed.
Throwing soldier lives without strategy or removing them from important fronts will only make the war last longer and the total number of victims bigger.
Is the life of 1 civilian worth more of the life of 10 soldiers?
Russia is known from history for temporarily abandoning its own territory (including Moscow!!) when the enemy had a temporary force advantage in order to win the war.
Or it is ok to sacrifice a much higher number of soldier lives (by removing a part of them from other fronts when they are needed or sending them without strategy) in order to save some civilians attacked by 404 soldiers in Kursk region?
Furthermore, as someone else pointed out, for russian law, civilians in 404 occupied Donetsk and Zaporozhye regions are russian citizens as much as those from Kursk (and soon it will be the same also for those in Sumy, Kharkov and Chernihov).
