Russia deploys the newly-formed “3rd Army Corps” to the front
In recent days, photos and videos of the transportation of Russian military equipment of the 3rd Army Corps by railways became public.

According to the database of the Russian railway, both trains go from the village of Mulino (Nizhny Novgorod region) to the Neklinovka railway station of the Rostov region near the border with the Donetsk region of Ukraine.
Analysts from the Conflict Intelligence Team stated that they had left Mulino on August 22 and 24, respectively, which roughly corresponded to the departure time of the 3rd Army Corps formed there.

The enemy increased firepower on the border of the Luhansk and Donetsk regions without apparent success
The AFU repelled Russian attacks on the Donetsk and Luhansk regions border.
This was announced by the head of the Luhansk Regional Military Administration, Serhii Haidai.
"Over the last night, the enemy carried out 23 shellings, in particular, using multiple rocket launchers. The invaders attempted three tank offensives, delivered four missile strikes. However, when limited tactical achievements happen to the occupiers, they are not able to turn them into operational successes - they freeze for months in the occupied positions, and in some places retreat to the previous ones," Haidai emphasized.
According to him, Russian attacks were repelled from six settlements located on the border of the Luhansk and Donetsk regions, and the occupying aircraft operated in the areas of another six cities and villages.

Russia intensified covert mobilization in the Moscow and Leningrad regions
In the Moscow and Leningrad regions of the Russian Federation, covert mobilization is unfolding intensively.
Defence Intelligence of Ukraine reports this.
Thus, "the exhaustion of the mobilization potential of the main "donors" of the war against Ukraine - Buryatia, Tuva, the republics of the Caucasus and other disadvantaged regions forces the Kremlin to pursue mobilization in the so-called "central regions" of Russia.
According to the intelligence, the basis of the mobilization measures is a broad advertising campaign, which includes campaigning on the main TV channels, radio, on the Internet, and printed mass media. Men of draft age are offered to sign "volunteer" contracts for a period of 3 to 12 months, motivated by increased financial support.
Candidates are promised a salary of up to RUB 240,000, which is transferred to a special bank card from the Military Commissariat, for training and downtime - from RUB 30,000 to 45,000.
The contract itself is signed after passing several mandatory procedures: psychological tests, filling out a questionnaire, as well as passing a military medical commission. According to the "recruiters", the latter is held conditionally. In fact, they take everyone willing, even with category "B" in the military ticket, i.e. those who are unfit for military service.
As of today, according to intelligence, the main part of those willing from the city of Moscow and the Moscow region conclude contracts at the base of 1st Guards Tank Army, military unit 73621 (Moscow Region, Odintsovo District, Bakovka settlement). After the contract is signed, the conscripts are trained for 10 days to a month. The main focus is on the training of T-72B3 tank crews.

AFU struck the invaders' river crossing under the Antonivka Road Bridge
In the Kherson region, Ukrainian forces damaged the river crossing of the invaders, which they are attempting to build under the Antonivsky Road Bridge.
Deputy of the Kherson Regional Council, Serhii Khlan reports this.
"The Russians indeed quickly learned how to restore bridge decks and are setting up additional crossings. Still, the key thing is that everything is under Ukrainian fire control, as soon as it is repaired or loaded, we will destroy it again," Khlan wrote.
He noted that the "new" pontoon bridge of the occupiers was also affected during the fire delivery on the Antonivksky Road Bridge.
As Khlan told on the air of Channel 24, a few days ago the collaborator Kirill Stremousov recorded propaganda videos near the bridge and assured that it would be opened soon and that a pontoon crossing was also being built under it from barges fixed to the piers of the Antonivka Road Bridge. Now this floating bridge is already damaged. "It is not yet completed, but yesterday's fire affected the crossing," Khlan commented.
According to him, earlier, the AFU also struck the Dariivka bridge over the Inhulets River, which connects the two right-bank parts of the Kherson region (one - Kryvyi Rih direction, the other - Kherson and Mykolaiv direction).
Currently, the Antonivka Road Bridge, the road through the Kakhovka HPP dam, and the Dariivka bridge are not open to traffic.

Russian soldiers refuse to return home from Kazakhstan in order not to go to war with Ukraine
The military personnel of the Russian Federation, currently stationed in Kazakhstan, refuses to leave the territory of the country and return to their places of permanent deployment.
This was reported in the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine.
The formal reason for the refusal is the lack of special air transport, which is fully engaged in the war with Ukraine. In reality, the military does not want to replenish the composition of the occupation contingent.
However, the command of the Russian Federation does not abandon its intentions to completely withdraw the troops from the territory of Kazakhstan, which were introduced there during the suppression of the January rallies against the current government.
These are about a thousand military personnel with full weapons and equipment, who are currently stationed near critical infrastructure facilities - airfields, military training grounds, oil depots, the Baikonur Cosmodrome, etc.
Also, the Russian Federation almost completely withdrew its military contingents with weapons and equipment from the territories of Tajikistan and Armenia to participate in the war against Ukraine.
