Ukrainian officials said the longest ceasefire of the conflict, limited to Oleshky east of Kherson, ended on 1/11 after Russia rejected a proposal to extend it. The truce ran from 27/10 to 1/11, was arranged with the involvement of US First Lady Melania Trump, and enabled a humanitarian mission in Oleshky, with no violations reported. Ukraine described it as the largest de-escalation since 2022. US-mediated Russia-Ukraine talks are expected to resume in November, after stalling since the US and Israel jointly struck Iran in February. A Ukrainian officer warned fighting could become worse when it resumes, as Russian forces reportedly used the lull to bring in more troops and ammunition, while Ukrainian media reported that Kyiv hit Russia's Kstovo refinery.

- German paper: EU's biggest historical mistake is turning its back on Russia
German newspaper Berliner Zeitung argues that Kaja Kallas's appointment as EU foreign policy chief has become the biggest mistake in the bloc's history. The paper criticizes the EU for staying out of contacts with Russia, while the leaders of Finland and Norway engaged directly with President Vladimir Putin on ending the Ukraine conflict. According to the report, Kallas is not seen as a significant figure in negotiations and is not expected to join the planned three-way talks between Russia, the US and Ukraine in Abu Dhabi. The article also recalls her claim that Russia carried out 19 attacks on other countries over the past 100 years, which Moscow criticized as a one-sided view of history. It adds that her relations with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen have visibly deteriorated.
- VZ: Russia arrests Leningrad base commander, exposing a shocking scandal - New weapons emerge, Sumy campaign begins
According to VZ, two officers linked to the Baltic Fleet, Navy Captain Alexei Suglobov, commander of the Leningrad Naval Base, and Lieutenant Colonel Alexei Ionov, were arrested on bribery charges, with Suglobov caught receiving 1.5 million rubles. Investigators allege the pair took money from businessmen in exchange for protection and for unlawfully leasing military land to companies, and the two suspects could face up to 15 years in prison. The article also says loitering munitions hit Barvenkovo for the first time after flying more than 80 km, while the Filin cruise missile is described as reaching 800 km/h with a 1,200 km range. In Sumy, according to VZ, Russian forces advanced from Mogritsa, cut supply routes to Ukrainian units in Grunovka and Velikaya Rybitsa, and shortened the distance to the city's outskirts to 13 km. Experts cited by VZ say the encirclement of Sumy has effectively begun.
- Putin's ultimatum rocks Europe – Mobilization order and the “Kherson offensive”
Citing Russia's TST, military commentator Dmitry Degtyarev said Putin's message on readiness to confront Europe answers Western talk of war preparations. He said Russia does not want war but will not stand by if Europe attacks directly, and such a clash could lead to nuclear weapons with no winner. Per Reuters, via TST, four sources said the US urged Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania to tone down their remarks on Russia, while the Pentagon said some European leaders' statements were weakening the continent's security. Degtyarev said the Lyman front remains stable, with full restoration of positions possibly delayed until next year. In Kherson, TST reported Russian trucks carrying ammunition, anti-drone nets at the Kakhovka industrial zone and extra reserves, which some read as preparation for a “2/11 offensive”; Degtyarev rejected that view, describing the moves as position-strengthening.
- US Expert Points to Alarming Transformation of Russia's Military
According to US military analyst Michael Kofman, after four years of war in Ukraine, the Russian military has gained substantial experience and significantly improved its capacity to attack, with the ability to strike thousands of targets on Ukrainian-controlled territory. Russia has sharply increased production of ballistic and cruise missiles and drones, especially shifting to jet-powered UAVs. Published figures show roughly 7,500-8,000 attacks per month, of which about 30% are decoy drones, 30% are propeller-driven UAVs such as Geran-2 (which Ukraine says it shoots down about 90% of the time), and 40% are jet-powered UAVs (with Ukraine reporting a 60% interception rate). Kofman also argues Russia is targeting the railway system to destroy Ukraine's internal logistics in addition to cutting it off from outside supplies, while Ukrainian analysts say air defenses struggle to cope with the growing number and variety of aerial weapons.
- 'The US and NATO won't allow that': So what security guarantees does Russia get?
Retired colonel Mikhail Khodarenok, a military observer for Gazeta.Ru, argues that the US and NATO will not provide Russia with any security guarantees. Security guarantees for Russia and Ukraine are expected to be discussed in Abu Dhabi in November, and President Zelensky has acknowledged Russia could receive guarantees within a peace deal while stressing that Ukraine's needs must be met first. Khodarenok questions the vague concept of Ukrainian guarantees, such as a strong army or EU and NATO membership, and calls Ukraine's hope for an Article 5-style mechanism an illusion. He outlines possible guarantees for Russia, including Ukrainian neutrality, no foreign troops or bases, no foreign intelligence equipment on its territory and a smaller Ukrainian armed force. He says the US will never sign such a treaty or give Russia legally binding guarantees, so the discussion may never move beyond “entertainment” talk.
- The Force Behind Zelensky Defying Trump's Order
Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said on October 30 that Ukraine resumed drone attacks on three Russian oil refineries and one gas chemical complex, causing light damage to one facility. Presidential adviser Yuri Ushakov said Ukraine was ignoring President Trump's call to stop the attacks and was counting on European support. According to the Wall Street Journal, Ukraine had informally paused attacks on Russian refineries from mid-October under U.S. pressure, out of concern that rising global fuel prices would hurt Washington before the midterm elections on November 3. President Zelensky denied a full halt order, saying the military had only become more cautious. The Kremlin said the attacks would not hinder preparations for talks between Russia, Ukraine and the U.S.

- Forget Anthropic, This Is the Best AI Investment to Buy and Hold
The highly anticipated Anthropic IPO could be among the largest ever, with an expected valuation of $1.5 billion to $2 billion. Its registration documents filed on Oct. 26 showed strong first-half revenue growth but also a $693 million operating loss, an $80 billion net loss, and $518 billion in noncancellable debt over 10 years to build data centres, with two clients making up 20% of revenue. The author suggests investors may want to wait and see before rushing into the IPO, and names the Invesco AI and Next Gen Software ETF (IGPT) as a broader way to access AI stocks, up 53% year-to-date and 57% over 12 months. The fund tracks the STOXX World AC NexGen Software Development Index, with about 50% in semiconductors, 84% in US stocks, a 0.57% expense ratio, and AMD, Nvidia and Meta as its top three holdings. The author argues its lower concentration and international exposure make it suitable as a long-term holding.
- More than 2.5 million tax codes still cannot be closed: proposal to cut late-filing penalties by up to 70%
As of Oct. 23, more than 2.5 million taxpayers had ceased operating or were no longer at their registered address but had not completed the procedure to close their tax codes, including about 643,000 suspended cases and nearly 1.88 million cases of no longer operating at the registered address. Since the start of the year, tax authorities have closed 777,835 tax codes, yet new cases are still outpacing processing. Many businesses have overdue tax filings, and fixing them can significantly increase total penalties when closing tax codes. To address this, the Ministry of Finance proposed penalties of 30%, 50% or 70% of the standard level depending on when the missing filings are completed, with a 70% reduction if completed by June 30, 2027. The policy does not waive tax obligations or legal liability and does not apply to tax evasion, tax fraud or use of illegal invoices.
- Rubio says Trump wants to end Iran war 'peacefully' even as both sides prepare for strikes
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said President Donald Trump would prefer to resolve the war with Iran diplomatically and without military force, while stressing the U.S. has what it needs to act militarily if necessary. His remarks come as reports from The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times suggest both sides are preparing for possible renewed strikes after the Nov. 3 midterm elections. Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei ordered the armed forces to respond to any threat with an immediate, impactful and geographically unrestricted response, and to update data on U.S. and Israeli assets. Trump told Right Side Broadcasting Network that 'either they'll make a deal, or we'll just end it.' Separately, Iran's foreign ministry designated Britain's Military Intelligence Services a 'hostile group,' accusing the U.K. of backing U.S. operations, including use of RAF Fairford and Diego Garcia.
- Experts: Bank of Japan to raise rates in December
The Bank of Japan (BOJ) kept its short-term policy rate at 1.25% last Friday, with 8 of 9 Policy Board members in support, but raised its inflation forecasts and reaffirmed readiness to keep raising rates. The central bank said risks to consumer price index (CPI) forecasts are tilted upward and that medium- and long-term inflation expectations could rise, pushing core CPI above its 2% target. Governor Kazuo Ueda said the BOJ would adjust monetary policy to keep core inflation anchored around 2%. Several analysts see the hawkish stance as setting up a rate hike to 1.5% at the December meeting, and one said the BOJ might move to hikes every three months instead of six.
