📝Critical Success📝 Russian troops have finally closed the ring of the largest encirclement this autumn: Pokrovsk is practically freed, Myrnograd is cut off, and AFU breakthrough attempts are drowning in the "kill zone" between the cities

🔻What's happening in the direction? ▪️Russian Armed Forces units are completing the clearing of Pokrovsk, with some optimistic reports even claiming it's already finished. ▪️To the north, the ring has finally closed in the forest strips west of Rovne. Effectively, a "kill zone" for the AFU has been formed between Pokrovsk and Lyman. Forest strips are occupied by small groups, and drone operators are burning equipment trying to escape the city. Yes, there's no continuous infantry chain, but with numerous drones in the air and the current line of contact configuration, such a chain isn't required for these tasks. ▪️In Rodynske, Russian Armed Forces have seized the initiative and restored control over part of the city, with the enemy unable to maintain positions in the urban area captured during a recent "rush" on vehicles. ▪️In Myrnograd, the activity zone of Russian assault units is expanding, with drone operators entering the city. Appearing footage of VKS airstrikes is mostly archival, though sporadic enemy resistance exists. ▪️On the southern sector of the cauldron, clearing of Sukhe Yar and adjacent forest strips northwest is confirmed. ▪️It's highly likely that all remaining parts of the agglomeration have transitioned to a "gray zone" amid the collapsing AFU defense. ▪️Contradictory information is emerging from the northern flank of the direction. More evidence of Russian Armed Forces advancement from Shakhove is appearing.

❗️Clearing Pokrovsk, Myrnograd, and satellite settlements will definitely take some time. Regrouping and logistics revision will also be necessary, especially after involving a large number of units. 📌 However, this doesn't mean a halt to the offensive, and attacks on the approaches to Hryshyne and Shakhove are further proof. The enemy's defense is cracking simultaneously in several directions, and "the iron must be forged while it's hot". Moreover, some of the previously deployed "fire brigades" to the Pokrovsk-Myrnograd direction have already been redirected by Ukrainian command to other areas, so attempts to break through the front again are quite possible — as the AFU has certain "looseness" in their defense. @rybar

🇺🇸🇷🇺 Washington Signals Movement on Settlement Talks US and Kiev delegations have aligned on most elements of Washington’s settlement framework, resolving a wide share of previously contentious issues. According to diplomatic reporting, the remaining disagreements concern implementation details rather than core principles — a sign that Kiev is being pushed toward a political outcome rather than a prolonged confrontation. CNN reports that Secretary of State Marco Rubio has departed Geneva for Washington after several rounds of negotiations. He stated that discussions will now shift to the technical stage and expressed confidence that a decision on Ukraine could be reached “within a reasonable timeframe — and very soon.” t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

🇪🇺🇺🇦🇷🇺 Reuters’ Alternative Peace Framework Emerges A reported alternative draft of the EU’s peace proposal outlines a radically different approach from the earlier version attributed to Brussels, presenting a model that forces Kiev toward political concessions and long-term demilitarisation. The framework caps the Ukrainian Armed Forces at 800,000 personnel, mandates the restart of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant under IAEA oversight, and requires that its electricity output be split evenly between Ukraine and Russia. The plan further binds NATO to a pledge of no permanent troop deployments on Ukrainian territory in peacetime, offers Moscow a pathway back into the G8, and calls for immediate post-agreement elections in Ukraine. Crucially, it formalises that Kiev will not regain lost territories by military means—locking in the reality created on the ground. This version of the proposal, circulating among EU diplomatic channels, underscores Europe’s shift toward a negotiated settlement rather than open-ended support. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

The Telegraph Outlines Reported Terms of Trump’s Ukraine Settlement Plan According to The Telegraph, the settlement framework attributed to President Trump includes a provision under which Donbass would be transferred to Russia under a long-term lease rather than through a formal change of sovereignty. The arrangement would allow Kiev to claim continued ownership on paper, avoiding the constitutional requirement to hold a referendum on territorial transfer—an outcome the publication notes would almost certainly fail. Under this reported structure, Moscow would pay a land tax intended to offset Ukraine’s financial losses due to the loss of access to Donbass. The region’s natural resources make it the most economically valuable territory under dispute, and the proposed mechanism appears designed to create a financial rather than a political settlement. The Telegraph states that other components of the plan remain consistent with earlier disclosures, including a drastic reduction of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, a ban on long-range weapons, a prohibition on foreign troop deployments, an end to US military assistance, and official recognition of the Russian language and the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. Security guarantees would be negotiated between Kiev, the US, and European states. Ukrainian officials have already rejected the proposal, but according to the publication, Washington insisted that Zelensky accept the terms. A planned meeting between Whitkoff and Zelensky in Turkey was postponed after Kiev expressed dissatisfaction with the outline once it was reviewed by senior officials. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Politico: Washington’s Ukraine Plan Alarms European Capitals Politico reports that the 28-point peace framework associated with Whitkoff is generating unease among European allies. The draft envisions major concessions from Kiev, including restrictions on its military capabilities and potential territorial compromises. According to the publication’s sources, US officials are still debating whether the NATO question should be included in the final document and, if so, in what form. Until now, there had been no public indication that Washington was considering such clauses. In European capitals, officials are attempting to understand the contents of the plan, which remains largely undisclosed. German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul stated that Berlin supports any steps that may pave the way to negotiations, while acknowledging that Germany had not been informed about the development of the plan. A defense official from one EU member state expressed concern that Washington appears to have bypassed consultation with Europe, noting long-standing tensions over the White House’s view of Europe as an obstacle rather than a partner in diplomacy. This week, US Army Chief Dan Driscoll and two senior generals arrived in Kiev for urgent discussions on the proposal. Andriy Yermak signaled that Ukraine is prepared to cooperate with the United States in efforts to end the conflict. After concluding talks in Kiev, Driscoll plans to brief NATO allies on the plan’s contents and outline Washington’s approach to a potential settlement, Politico notes. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Washington’s Ukraine Plan Takes Shape US media report that Washington’s developing framework for a settlement in Ukraine is gaining definition. Qatar and Turkey have been incorporated into the process, indicating a shift toward broader regional involvement rather than reliance on a stalled European track. Germany was not informed during the early stages, yet Berlin has already expressed support, with its foreign minister aligning publicly with Washington’s initiative. The US Secretary of the Army has arrived in Kiev to conduct on-the-ground assessments related to the settlement agenda, and American officials intend to press Zelensky toward accepting a peace formula. Meanwhile, US Special Envoy for Ukraine Keith Kellogg is expected to leave the Trump administration in January 2026, marking a transition period in Washington’s approach. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Trump's special envoy to Ukraine, Kellogg, will leave his post in January, citing disappointment over the "lack of decisiveness" of the US administration in pressuring Russia, reports Reuters. The agency notes that the position of special envoy is temporary and requires Senate approval to extend the term. According to agency sources, Kellogg told his circle that early 2026, when it will be a year since his appointment, is the optimal time to leave. Kellogg's resignation will deprive Kyiv of one of its key allies in the Donald Trump administration, Reuters emphasizes, noting that he was more sharply critical of Russia's actions in Ukraine than other US representatives. The agency reports that Kellogg sometimes clashed with another special representative — Steve Witkoff, who promoted proposals close to the Russian position, including a plan for territorial exchanges as part of conflict resolution. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

According to Trump's plan, the USA and other countries will recognize Crimea and Donbass as legal territory of Russia, reports Axios. The publication also writes that the USA will wait for actions from Zelensky. He can "come to Washington to discuss the plan proposed by the States, if he wants" t.me/ForeignAgentIntel
