Ukrainian military analysts warn that if Toretsk, which sits on elevated terrain, were to fall, Moscow could block Ukrainian supply routes to the front line.
- With superior numbers and resources, Moscow’s troops have since August advanced at their fastest rate in more than two years, with little letup, despite Ukrainian forces mounting a surprise incursion into Russia’s Kursk region.
Kyiv has called for Western powers to supply more long-range weapons to help it stop Russian attacks and attempt to force peace, at what is seen as a crucial moment for the Ukraine war ahead of the US elections.
- Leaders of Ukraine’s main allies, including US President Joe Biden, are set to meet at a US base in Ramstein, Germany on Saturday.

Dear Ukrainians!
Today, I agreed on the schedule of negotiations for the week. These are meetings and negotiations with many partners.
We will present the Victory Plan to everyone who can strengthen Ukraine – to every country that can really help bring peace closer.
We will present the Victory Plan to everyone who can strengthen Ukraine – to every country that can really help bring peace closer.
- And, of course, once we fully understand all the positions of our partners and the real possibilities for Ukraine,
- and once we strengthen our Victory Plan, we will make our strategy for further actions public.
We invite our partners to define
- how they envision the end of this war,
- Ukraine's place in the global security architecture, and
- the joint steps that can steer this war toward a conclusion.
By the end of the day, I expect a report from our team that is currently working in Washington, following the start of work on the military and military-political details of the Victory Plan.
- I also anticipate a report from Commander-in-Chief Syrskyi regarding the work at his level with partners.
- The Donetsk directions remain particularly challenging, and we will try to convince our partners at the upcoming "Ramstein" meeting of the urgent need for significant reinforcement of our capabilities and positions right now, during these autumn months.
- Sufficient supplies for the front, sufficient equipment for our brigades and enough long-range capabilities for our forces – this will undoubtedly serve as the best deterrent for Russia and the strongest push to move the situation towards peace.
And one more thing.
- Today there was a report by Oleksandr Kamyshin, and
- also a report by Minister Herman Smetanin.
Weapons production in Ukraine – shells, artillery, and equipment.
It wasn't just about what we've already achieved or what we're currently producing, but also about proposals for our partners:
- to invest in our Ukrainian production,
- primarily production of drones and electronic warfare systems.
- This is also part of our package for the upcoming "Ramstein" meeting.
We must keep getting stronger – every month, every week.
I thank everyone who is helping, everyone working for the sake of Ukraine. Thank you to all who are fighting for our country!
Glory to Ukraine!
