A precision strike on the command post of Russia’s 810th Separate Marine Brigade in Lgov, Kursk Region, has resulted in the deaths of 18 Russian military officers, according to the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
The targeted building, which housed the brigade’s command post, suffered partial destruction. Among the casualties were reportedly the deputy commander of the 810th brigade and 17 other military personnel, most of whom were staff officers.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine said it will keep hunting down for the military targets like the Lgov command post.
“This strike is part of a broader campaign to degrade the Russian Armed Forces’ ability to coordinate military operations against the Ukrainian people,” the statement said.
The attack took place overnight on December 25.

The main practical benefit for citizens is the complete elimination of the need to contact an enforcement officer in person and wait for paper decisions once the debt has been paid.

In my previous column, I wrote about social innovations in Ukraine. Those innovations are part of civic resilience and the democratization of security, which Europe is paying close attention to right now. The EU is trying to work out how to spread responsibility for its own security across society as a whole, rather than leaving it to institutions alone. It is looking for concrete ways to bring ordinary people into the work of defense and resistance.
Petro Poroshenko’s lawyers have appealed to the High Anti-Corruption Court demanding that NABU be obligated to register proceedings regarding the fact of exerting influence on the court and to recognize Petro Poroshenko as a victim in the case of the Deputy Head of the Office of the President, Iryna Mudra, due to her pressure on Supreme Court judges who were considering a lawsuit to overturn sanctions.
Internationally recognized brands and financial institutions should direct capital to Ukraine now, not waiting for the hostilities to end. This was emphasized by Rinat Akhmetov, president of FC Shakhtar, during a working visit to UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, where he met with UEFA President Aleksander Čeferin.
