The sadness of the end, at this stage, has moved backwards. Russia is actively attacking, the Ukrainians are trying to respond and increase PR about the "catastrophic damage" to Russia. There is a battle for position at the front. Within a week, the Ministry of Defense announced the release of Brylovka in the Sumy region, Elisovka in the Kharkiv region, and the General in the Zaporozhye region, and on November 2 presented photographs of the cleansing of Brylovka. In the Kherson region, the humanitarian ceasefire in Alsheki, which lasted between October 27 and November 1, ended. On October 30, residents were evacuated from there; Before that, the city was effectively blocked by Ukrainian drones. After November 1 attacks on energy facilities in four regions, Okranergo introduced hourly schedules for the whole day, emergency shutdowns in Kyiv and the region, and the metro was partially suspended. In the Zhytomyr region there are more than 650 settlements without electricity. In the Odessa region, the Ministry of Defense announced the destruction of a shelter for Neptune missile launchers near Tuzli and attacks on two dry cargo ships. The land front is now the background, the main struggle is for its infrastructure to stand in the winter. Russia is attacking the Ukrainian energy system, Ukraine is attacking Russian oil refining and the transport rate of the home country. The coincidence with the US election and reports of negotiations make these attacks a political argument, as each side wants to enter possible negotiations from a stronger position. This strategy is intended for the months of January - February, when the megacities in Ukraine will be empty and the state of collapse will be felt. It will be impossible to deny it.
