18:42 The head of the IAEA, Rafael Grossi, at the 27th UN Climate Conference in Egypt, confirmed that there are no signs of preparations for the use of a "dirty bomb" by Ukraine: "In a few days, we assembled an inspection team that went to three sites.

We also analyzed the progress in the restoration of energy facilities and measures for the air defense of critical infrastructure. We considered the issues of passing the winter period and ways to minimize the risks caused by Russian aggression.
17:50 Prigozhin said that the decision to withdraw troops from the right bank of the Dnieper "is not an easy one, but it shows the readiness of the command to take responsibility for the lives of soldiers."

According to him, Kherson and adjacent settlements cannot be fully supplied and function, "people's lives are constantly in danger."
Surovikin also announced Ukraine's alleged plans to "create a flood zone below the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station," which would lead to significant casualties among the civilian population. He declared the expediency of organizing defense along the barrier line of the Dnieper River, along its left bank.
Shoigu, in turn, said that "the defense in the Kherson direction is stable, but there are some peculiarities."
17:04 The Russians fired again at the Nikopol district of the Dnipropetrovsk region this afternoon, the head of the OVA, Valentin Reznichenko, said. As a result of the Gradami strike on the Marganets community, one local resident was killed - the shell hit a residential building directly.

14:53 There are from 30,000 to 50,000 Russian soldiers in Kherson, and they are not retreating. It takes time to recapture Kherson, Vadym Skibitsky, a spokesman for the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry, said in an interview with La Repubblica. According to him, the Russians "evacuate" the population because it is easier to fight, and also to block the flow of information received by intelligence from local residents.
14:50 Israel cannot supply its air defense systems to Ukraine because it does not have sufficient capacity for their additional production, Defense Secretary Benny Gantz said: “It is clear that even if we decide to change our policy, it is impossible to deplete our stockpiles of air defense systems. We we check every day what can be done and how we can expand our assistance, but we must not forget that NATO is behind Ukraine."

The headquarters will work continuously and will become a platform for information support of Ukrainian prisoners held by the Russian aggressor.
Yermak emphasized that the International Committee of the Red Cross did not agree to delegate its representatives to the mission, which was supposed to leave for the line of demarcation and demand that Russia provide access to places where Ukrainian captives are being held.
14:02 Deputy of the Kherson Regional Council Serhiy Khlan confirmed the information that the occupiers are undermining absolutely all the bridges that are on the right-bank part of the Kherson region. According to him, in this way they form a retreat for themselves and try to slow down the offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The deputy also said that the occupiers left part of the settlements of the Kherson region, but they are reinforcing fortifications on other frontiers and pulling up personnel there.
13:47 Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev held Russian-Iranian security consultations in Tehran with his Iranian counterpart Shamkhani, Russian media write. He also met in Tehran with the Iranian president, discussed "issues of Russian-Iranian cooperation in the field of security and a number of international problems."
13:15 Podolyak commented on Patrushev's visit to Iran: "The Kremlin is exhausted. Russia's resources are reaching the limit. Hence the hysterical requests for a break ("negotiations"). Hence Patrushev's visit to Tehran: the search for a way to continue the war, get missiles/drones, overcome his attrition. Perfect time to double down on aid to Ukraine."
12:41 Residents of the Kherson region report in local publics that today several bridges were blown up at once in the rear of the Russian troops. According to some reports, the Russians themselves blew them up when leaving the right bank for the left. It is also reported that Russian flags have disappeared almost all over Kherson. There is no official information about this yet.
12:34 Partners do not persuade Ukraine to negotiate with the Russian Federation, the UE writes, citing sources close to Bankova and other interlocutors involved in international negotiations.

12:07 For almost nine years of occupation, Russia has called up about 36,000 residents of Crimea to serve in its armed forces. In particular, the Russian Federation uses conscripts, especially illegally conscripted Ukrainians, in the war against Ukraine, Tamila Tasheva, permanent representative of the President of Ukraine in Crimea, said. At the same time, since 2015, the occupation courts have received almost 400 criminal proceedings under Article 328 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation for "evading conscription for military service." In these cases, almost a quarter - after February 24, 2022.
Tasheva also said that, despite Moscow's statements about the completion of the so-called mobilization, it continues in a covert mode, trying to return the soldiers who were injured and left the ranks of the Russian Armed Forces. In addition, the occupying administrations of Crimea are forcing the inhabitants of the peninsula to provide material assistance to the Russian army.
11:38 For the sake of negotiations with Ukraine, Russia is trying to put pressure on the international community, Vadym Skibitsky, a spokesman for the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, told La Repubblica, commenting on the accusations regarding the "dirty bomb": "This is a high-level information campaign prepared at a high level, which is very disturbing. It reminds me the position of Russia on the use of chemical weapons in Syria and Libya, and we know how it was ... The purpose of the campaign is to put pressure on the international community to force us to negotiate, this is the old way of approach: when they no longer know what to do, they raise issues of nuclear and chemical weapons."
11:19 Ireland stands for Ukraine's early accession to the EU, Foreign Minister Simon Coveney said: "What motivates many Ukrainians is the dream of a different future. The kind of future we have today in the EU, in terms of peace, stability , prosperity, democracy and all that follows... But above all, a country that is now literally fighting for its survival against a military superpower must be able to hope for full EU membership, and not some partial membership or agreement about the neighborhood."
11:01 Russia could have lost half of its main battle tanks in the war against Ukraine and may have used most of its precision weapons, US Under Secretary of Defense for Policy Colin Kohl said: "More than 80% of their ground forces are mired in Ukraine. They spent most of their precision munitions, and sanctions and export controls will make it very difficult for them to restore their army to the way it was before the war."
10:54 The Russians began mining the suburbs of Mariupol. According to the mayor's adviser Pyotr Andryushchenko, the occupiers are installing "dragon's teeth" and fortifying the suburbs. Along the line Agrobaza - Berdyanskoye - Shevchenko - Priazovskoye, the Russians began mining dirt roads and fields. Everything points to an accelerated and intensified fortification of the city, Andryushchenko noted.
10:48 As a result of a multi-stage special operation in Kiev and the Sumy region, the SBU counterintelligence neutralized the enemy DRG, which was preparing the murders of the commanders of the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The saboteurs reconnoitered the points of deployment and movement of Ukrainian troops in the capital and in the border regions of the north-east of Ukraine. One of their main tasks was to collect personal data and the locations of the commanders of the SOF combat units for further preparations for the physical liquidation of Ukrainian defenders and the destruction of their weapons and equipment. According to the investigation, the group was formed by a staff member of the FSB.
10:33 Deputy head of Putin's administration, Sergei Kiriyenko, said that Peskov returned from Lugansk tonight, where he conducted a "training program for the media."
10:24 Politico writes, citing sources, that Zelensky has softened his position on negotiations with the Russian Federation after the "push" of the United States. So, on Monday, Zelensky called five conditions for negotiations: “restoration of territorial integrity, respect for the UN Charter, compensation for all losses caused by the war, punishment of every war criminal and guarantees that this will not happen again.” In contrast to past statements, he did not say that Putin would have to step down to do this.
This change, according to one of the sources of the publication, came after several days of negotiations between Kyiv and Washington, in particular, after the visit of Biden's national security adviser Jake Sullivan. “This does not mean that they need to sit down at the negotiating table now. We don’t even think that now is the right time, based on what Russia is doing. But they must show a willingness to resolve the conflict, because no one wants this conflict to end , more than Ukraine," the official said on condition of anonymity.
09:53 The FSB announced the exposure of "the highest-ranking Ukrainian intelligence agent-illegal": a certain colonel of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense Shtyblikov received 19.5 years in prison. After 2014, he allegedly stayed in Crimea, received a Russian passport and got a job in the Black Sea Fleet, where he spied and prepared sabotage.

09:23 In the Donetsk region over the past day, three civilians were killed - in Konstantinovka, Chasovy Yar and Avdeevka. In addition, in Yampol, law enforcement officers found the bodies of three killed by the Russians during the occupation. Another 11 people were injured in the region, Pavel Kirilenko, head of the OVA, said.
09:12 British intelligence notes that the attack on the Crimean bridge disrupted Russian logistics to Crimea and southern Ukraine, reducing Russia's ability to move military equipment and troops to the area by rail or road. Bridge damage, the recent attack on the Black Sea Fleet in Sevastopol, and a possible withdrawal from Kherson make it difficult for the Russian government to paint a picture of military success. Analysts believe that the Crimean bridge will be fully commissioned no earlier than September 2023.
08:44 Hungary told EU finance ministers at a meeting in Brussels that it would not support the necessary changes to prepare an aid package for Ukraine in the amount of 18 billion euros next year, Bloomberg writes, citing sources.
08:10 At night, the invaders massively attacked the Dnipropetrovsk region with kamikaze drones, five of which were destroyed by air defense.

The fire has already been extinguished, the warehouses of the enterprise have been destroyed, said the head of the OVA, Valentin Reznichenko.
In the Nikopol district, the Russians fired with Grads and heavy artillery, people were not injured.
07:35 Over the past day, units of the Defense Forces of Ukraine repelled attacks by invaders in the areas of the settlements of Belogorivka and Novoselovskoye in the Luhansk region and Bakhmut, Bakhmutskoye, Belogorovka, Vesele, Kleschievka, Mayorsk, Novomikhailovka, Experienced, Pavlovka, Pervomayskoye, Soledar and Yakovlevka in the Donetsk region, reported General Staff in the morning summary .
As part of the border troops of Belarus, units of strike UAV operators are being created. According to preliminary information, servicemen of the 38th Separate Guards Air Assault Brigade of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Belarus, as "fraternal" assistance, purchased for the needs of the personnel of the 15th Motorized Rifle Regiment of the 2nd Motorized Rifle Division of the RF Armed Forces up to 100 sets of individual first-aid kits, tactical vests and other equipment . Law enforcement agencies of Belarus have tightened measures to search, identify and detain citizens with a pro-Ukrainian position or those who criticize the authorities or Russia's "special operation" in Ukraine.
05:16 The American Institute for the Study of War (ISW) suggests that Iran is trying to demonstrate the deepening of cooperation with Moscow by publishing information about the arrival of Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev. Thus, the Iranian state news agency Nour reported that Patrushev arrived in Tehran on November 8 "to discuss Russian-Iranian cooperation."
Meanwhile, the Wagner forces continue to inflate their territorial gains in the Donbass in order to further isolate themselves from puppet and conventional Russian forces. ISW recalls that Wagner took full credit for the Russians' success around Bakhmut in order to bolster his reputation as the Kremlin's favorite strike force, despite the fact that he is not the only force deployed in the area. The Institute suggests that Wagner is likely using Belogorovka to achieve a similar effect.
03:57 Washington, together with partners, is discussing opportunities to provide Ukraine with the necessary equipment due to the deliberate destruction of critical infrastructure by Russia, said Pentagon Speaker Patrick Ryder. In particular, possible deliveries of generators, water purification products, heaters, etc. are being considered.
