The aviation coalition of partner countries has advised Sweden to hold off on sending multi-role Gripen fighter jets to Ukraine for now. Pål Jonson, Sweden’s Defense Minister, announced this during a briefing at NATO H in Brussels, as reported by a Militarnyi correspondent. While he did not rule out the possibility of transferring them in the future, he acknowledged Ukraine’s interest in the aircraft. The decision to delay the transfer was explained by the technical and logistical challenges involved:

Quote:
“I think it would be difficult to introduce three different types of fighter jets at once. Right now, we have the F-16s and also the Mirage,” the Swedish Defense Minister noted.

What to expect from Zelensky-Trump meeting as Ukraine hopes for Tomahawks

What to expect from Zelensky-Trump meeting as Ukraine hopes for Tomahawks

President Volodymyr Zelensky is set to meet his U.S. counterpart, Donald Trump, in Washington on Oct. 17 as Kyiv seeks to secure more robust support for the war with Russia. With Trump warming up to Ukraine, there are hopes that the meeting – his sixth with Zelensky since taking office – could lead to the deliveries of the much-coveted Tomahawks. Although the White House publicly floated arming Ukraine with the powerful long-range missiles, observers remain cautious, citing Trump’s "mercurial" nature.

Moreover, Trump held a phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin before his meeting with Zelensky, announcing a new summit with the Russian leader in Budapest. Previously, Trump said he would discuss with Putin sending Tomahawks to Ukraine before making a final decision. Yet there is hope that the Trump-Zelensky meeting will build on the positive rapport the two leaders have built in recent weeks, a stark contrast to the tense first months of Trump's presidency.

What Ukraine hopes for -- Both leaders hinted that military support will top the agenda. Zelensky said he held what he called "productive" phone calls with Trump on Oct. 11 and 12, discussing Ukraine's air defenses and long-range capabilities. What to expect from Zelensky-Trump meeting as Ukraine hopes for Tomahawks.

In Sept, Trump administration approved the first weapons deliveries to Ukraine funded by NATO allies under the Prioritized Ukraine Requirements List (PURL).

After meeting Zelensky in New York on Sept. 23, Trump surprisingly declared that, with European support, Ukraine is capable of reclaiming all of its territory.
Zelensky plans to discuss Ukraine's desire to "go offensive" in the war during the upcoming meeting, Trump said on Oct. 15, days after the U.S. president voiced readiness to ship Tomahawks to Kyiv if Putin does not agree to end hostilities. U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth added to the speculation on Oct. 15 with a cryptic remark that Washington is ready to "impose costs on Russia" in ways "only the U.S. can do." Note: The
Tomahawk is a subsonic long-range missile capable of striking targets at a range of 1,600 to 2,500 kilometers (1,000-1600 miles). Providing weapons would constitute a "qualitatively new stage of escalation," Putin has warned.

Russia-Ukraine War: Ukraine Unleashes 1,600 KM Strike Weapon | WION News
Drone strikes are blasting cities in ever greater numbers. Troops, already in short supply, are all needed on the front, where the Russians are slowly advancing. So, Ukraine is exploring another solution to defend the rear.

The biggest news comes from Baltic States. Here, Riga has taken a hard and visible step to avoid any precedent for Russian invasion, seeing sovereignty being continually questioned by Russian media. Ordering mass expulsion of Russians citizens from the country, and now directly requesting additional security by Nato, the Baltics understand that Russian invasion is an all too real threat directly on their borders. Latvia
has given 841 people a deadline to leave after they failed to clear new language & security checks, those who do not face loss of services possible deportation. This follow-through to a separate law that already bars Russian citizens from buying property, measure aimed at stopping outside from quietly buying influence through real estate. In practice, action closes numerous access points, accounts, rental contracts, property ownership,& local voting rolls that had previously allowed Russian-linked actors to operate inside Latvia with minimal oversight. Administratively, this is also a test: how fast local registries, police, and courts can process checks, close loopholes& handle appeals will determine whether law functions as a tight security filter or becomes a bureaucratic mess w/humanitarian fallout. Under Soviet rule, Moscow moved large numbers of ethnic Russians into Baltics to change local demographics. That left towns & districts where Russian-speakers are a big slice of the population, the exact communities Moscow says it now needs to protect, the same pretext it used to invade Ukraine. Because of that history, the Baltic governments treat migration and residency rules as national security, not just paperwork. Baltic capitals see Russia repeating the same the Donbas playbook with them: Russia will label the Russian-speaking minority as prosecuted, giving pretext for invasion.

Here, separatism, once whispered in exile or suppressed by force, is now turning into open resistance and a threat to the stability of the state. With the effect of the war increasingly reaching Russians at home, these sentiments start to grow, as the Ukrainian intelligence directorate seeks to stoke the fires even further.


In Yakutia, Russia’s largest republic spanning over three million square kilometers, separatist sentiment has evolved into a movement of identity, survival, and now defiance. Long treated as Moscow’s colony, Yakutia generates billions in diamonds, gold, and gas, yet its people remain among Russia’s poorest, living amid environmental devastation and neglect. Anger has been brewing for years, but the war in Ukraine has lit the fuse. Thousands of young Yakuts have died fighting for Russia’s ambitions, suffering 40 times more casualties than soldiers from the Moscow district, all while their homeland continues to be plundered. In September 2025, local deputy Alexander Ivanov crossed the final line by openly discussing Yakutia’s need to separate from Russia during an interview in Turkey. He called on Yakuts not to fear those who have occupied their land, directly challenging Moscow’s authority. His ties with pan-Turkic circles in Istanbul and support for protests in the Altai Republic have made him a symbol of the awakening.  Meanwhile, fighters from Yakutia are already taking up arms in Ukraine’s Siberian Battalion, envisioning a free Yakutia, fighting Russian forces, and inspiring those back home.
While Yakutia’s resistance is still mostly political, Ingushetia’s has entered a far more dangerous phase of insurgency. Nestled in the volatile North Caucasus, the tiny Muslim republic has become the epicenter of a new wave of guerrilla warfare. The Ingush Liberation Army, founded in 2023, now conducts attacks every month. In June 2025, its militants struck a Russian border post in North Ossetia with drones, killing two FSB officers. In August, coordinated arson attacks targeted military depots in Dagestan, and recently, the group released a video showing fighters on patrol, armed, organized, and defiant. Another separatist formation, the Caucasus Liberation Movement, unites Chechens, Dagestanis, and Ingush under one banner, waging what they call a war of anti-colonial resistance. Supported by Ukraine’s Main Intelligence Directorate, they recently eliminated a Lieutenant Colonel from a local counter sabotage unit in a precision explosion together with his driver and aide. Their message Moscow’s grip on the Caucasus is loosening, and the Kremlin’s agents are no longer untouchable.

Behind much of this growing chaos lies what many analysts now refer to as Budanov’s blueprint. General Kyrylo Budanov, head of Ukraine’s military intelligence, is methodically cultivating resistance within Russia’s ethnic regions. His operatives are spreading the truth about Russia’s war, about how ethnic minorities, Yakuts, Buryats, Ingush, Dagestanis, are being used as cannon fodder and dying by the thousands, while despite compromising less than 10 percent of the total population, they supply around 40 percent of contract soldiers. Ukrainian intelligence has made direct contact with exiled activists and underground networks, providing them with intelligence, logistics, and training. The goal is strategic, as every region in turmoil means fewer Russian resources on the front, as many small fires can burn an empire from within.

And Russia is already feeling the heat, as the Kremlin’s unwritten social contract, to do whatever they want internationally as long as the internal population remains unbothered, is unraveling. When mobilization began during Ukraine’s Kharkiv counteroffensive in 2022, people protested because the war reached into their homes, and many were drafted by force. Now, as Ukrainian drone strikes cripple oil refineries, gas stations across Russia are running dry. Protests over fuel shortages have erupted in several regions, and ordinary Russians, once detached from the war, are suddenly living its consequences. Simultaneously, many are seeing that the state can no longer shield them from its failures.

Overall, what began as cultural revival movements is mutating into revolutionary networks challenging Moscow’s rule from within. The Kremlin’s policy of exploitation, draining regions of resources, and sending their sons to die has sown the seeds of revolt. What Russian officials dismiss as isolated extremism is, in truth, the early stage of fragmentation. Supported by Ukrainian intelligence, these movements are gaining confidence, structure, and purpose. They have waited generations for a spark, and now, as Russia CONTINUE TI  bleeds on multiple fronts, it has arrived.
