Live text broadcast – short and concise about the most important things in the Ukrainian war on October 8. Ukraine has been heroically defending its land against the aggressor’s invasion for more than a year and a half.
14:02. Since the start of Russia’s repeated invasion of Ukraine on February 24 of last year, the Russians have lost 4,821 tanks, 9,123 armored personnel carriers, 6,705 cannons, 808 multiple rocket launchers, 542 anti-aircraft artillery systems, 315 airplanes, 316 helicopters, 5,190 drones, 1,530 cruise missiles, 2 0 ships and speedboats, one submarine, 9111 cars and tank cars, as well as 959 units of specialized equipment.
The extent of Russia’s losses is being clarified, as the acquisition of information is hindered by hostilities.
13:01. Excursions for the integration of Ukrainian residents in Talsi region will be organized by the association “Support and growth center “Alendum”” for 17,900 euros.
In order to promote the integration of Ukrainians into Latvian society, the project plans to involve 75 people in two different activities. One of the activities – Cultural orientation courses, where Ukrainian residents will have the opportunity to get to know the history, culture, geography, people and learn the Latvian language in depth.
In parallel with the cultural orientation courses, six excursions around Latvia will be organized, in which not only Ukrainian residents will participate, but also representatives of the host community.
11:48. The loss of Russian troops in Ukraine has reached 282,280 soldiers by Sunday morning, according to the General Staff of the Ukrainian Army.
According to the data of the general staff, 580 invaders were destroyed during the day.
10:14. The United States has given Ukraine more than $43.9 billion in aid since Russia’s full-scale war began.
08:49. Russian President Vladimir Putin’s threat to withdraw from the nuclear test ban treaty is an attempt to convert nuclear weapons into political benefits, said Mārcis Balodis, a researcher at the Eastern European Policy Research Center.
Balodis pointed out that at the beginning of the year, Russia suspended its participation in the New Start nuclear arms control treaty. In Balož’s opinion, with such steps, Russia is trying to create tension, because withdrawal or lack of cooperation to some extent increases ignorance about what is happening. As soon as such information becomes public, it affects not only the political leadership of countries, but also society.
00:10. When asked whether it is possible to connect the attack of the Palestinian group “Hamas” on Israel with the war in Ukraine, the chairman of the Foreign Affairs Commission of the Saeima, Rihards Kol (NA), stated that such a possibility cannot be ruled out, because Russia’s goal is to weaken the West on a wider scale in order to divert attention from the events in Ukraine.
