Svitlana Osypenko has been attending psychological group therapy on a regular basis
With her husband serving in the army and her home city of Kharkiv under constant bombardment
she began experiencing anxiety and depression
I thought it was normal to feel bad because I was worrying about my husband and spending the first months of the war in the basement
But when I just wanted to cry without a reason while I was walking with my dog and felt sad all the time
The 36-year-old says that she feels constantly worried and – because of uncertainty about when the war will be over – she can’t totally recover
most of the participants in the group therapy take antidepressants
and a large percentage of them have one-on-one sessions with psychologists
Before the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Ms
Osypenko worked as a theatre choreographer and had her own dance studio for children
Theatres are mostly closed because of the danger of being attacked with rockets
and a lot of kids didn’t return to the city.”

She says that her social circle has significantly decreased and many of her friends have left Kharkiv
but I can’t turn off the trigger – the war.”
Family doctor Oleksandr Prokopchuk says that when patients with physical symptoms come to his hospital in Zolotonosha
they often don’t understand that the problem is not in their internal organs at all
an anxiety disorder or a psychosomatic illness
“The patient thinks that the problem is with the heart or lungs or with something else
adding that symptoms such as shortness of breath and chest pain very often hide mental disorders
Analysis: Ukraine’s risky incursion into Russia marks a new and perilous phase of the war
He said that he sees these symptoms in different age groups
“We didn’t have such a large number of complaints before the full-scale invasion
Prokopchuk added that for civilians it is also difficult to talk about their mental health because if they say they aren’t feeling well
but do you know how hard it is for our boys at the front?” This “devalues individual feelings and adds to the increasing number of mental problems in society,” he said
According to World Health Organization estimates
just over one in five people living in a conflict zone have some form of a mental-health condition
ranging from mild depression or anxiety to psychosis
Roughly one in 10 are living with a moderate or severe mental-health condition
“Applying these estimates to the population of Ukraine would mean that 9.6 million people may have a mental-health condition
of whom 3.9 million may have conditions that are moderate or severe,” says Vera Schroepel

“Forty-three per cent of parents have noticed changes in the mental states of their children and reported high levels of anxiety

Families of missing Ukrainian civilians fight for any news of where their loved ones went
Anxiety and stress were also exacerbated for internally displaced people

a psychologist and the head of Vilnyy Vybir – a non-governmental organization focused on psychological support and rehabilitation for veterans – says mobile apps are becoming an additional tool for people to help with mental-health challenges
they don’t have the opportunity to make an appointment with a specialist or are not ready for one-on-one therapy
The online tools help them understand what’s happening to them
“When we are working with our clients on individual sessions
mostly they come with post-trauma tiredness
She says that experiencing traumatic situations and their continuation in the future prevent full rehabilitation because sufferers are continuing to deal with stress and troubling events
says Ukrainians have adapted to living in conditions of uncertainty
“At the beginning of a full-scale invasion
and we don’t have any guarantees or predictability regarding when we will regain control over our own lives – it’s creating exhaustion.”

and the third year of threat to human life.”
The Kharkiv Psychiatric Hospital has 15 to 20 new patients a day
Two other psychiatric hospitals in the region are not operational any more – one of them has been totally destroyed
“But not all the people who need help come to us or are delivered by ambulance,” he says
“We still have a big number of people who stay at home.”
A study using the WHO-5 psychological well-being index revealed alarming statistics: 35 per cent of Ukrainians surveyed indicated poor well-being and quality of life
with scores suggesting potential psychological distress
While 30 per cent described their quality of life as decent or fair
only a small fraction – 10 per cent – reported the highest quality of life possible

head of the Kremlin-controlled Russian Orthodox Church Moscow Patriarchate (ROC MP)
highlighted ongoing social and ideological divides within Russian society while reiterating boilerplate justifications for the war in Ukraine during a speech on October 31
Kirill offered his assessment of the main external and internal threats to the Russian state during a meeting of the Bureau of the Presidium of the World Russian People's Council
and Russia's ongoing invasion of Ukraine.[1] Kirill noted that while the war in Ukraine is the "most pressing threat" to the Russian state
some people within Russian society "prefer to ignore" what is happening on the frontline in Ukraine and the struggles of people who live in Russian border areas closer to the combat zone
Kirill criticized Russians who are unwilling to "give up their personal comforts" and who are relying on "frivolous entertainment" to distract them from the reality of the war
Kirill's rebuke of Russians who are apathetic and disinterested in the war suggests that the Kremlin may be increasingly concerned about the sustainability of Russian society's support for the war
Recent Russian opinion polls have suggested that support for local Russian government entities and some Kremlin policies
although Russian citizens continue to widely support Russian President Vladimir Putin.[2] Additional polling has suggested that most Russians
particularly Russians who have not personally lost family members in Ukraine
are largely apathetic to the invasion and are able to avoid thinking about the invasion entirely as long as it does not personally affect them.[3] The Kremlin may be concerned about the growing cleavage between Russian citizens who have been immediately impacted by the invasion and Russians who have successfully insulated themselves and their families from the invasion
The Kremlin may also be concerned about apathy towards the invasion in the context of the possible societal reaction to conducting a second wave of mobilization
to which most Russians remain averse.[4] Kirill has previously acted as a key figure in injecting Kremlin narratives into the Russian information space
and the Kremlin may be in the early stages of justifying and preparing Russian society to support a future wave of mobilization.[5]
Kirill also highlighted the growing trend of brutality and cruelty in the Russian military and attempted to excuse this trend as the emergence of a “neo-pagan” cult.[6] Kirill stated on October 31 that neo-pagan preachers are trying to revive paganism and instill a "cult of brute force and cruelty” in Russia
Kirill added that neo-pagans are introducing a false belief that Christianity discourages personal heroism and valor and that "holy" Russian servicemen disprove this belief with their conduct
but he then noted that "neo-paganism" is present in the Russian army
Kirill concluded the segment by criticizing Halloween celebrations in Russia
and Kirill likely used the occasion to introduce a discussion about Russian servicemen committing brutal and cruel acts on the frontlines or upon their return to Russia from the frontlines
ISW has observed numerous instances of Russian military personnel
committing gruesome acts against fellow Russian servicemen on the frontlines
and Russian citizens upon their return from the frontlines.[7] Russia is likely to see a significant rise of brutality and cruelty in its communities upon the arrival of more traumatized Russian servicemen home as long as it continues to brutalize its soldiers; refuses to provide the necessary psychological assistance to returning veterans; and militarizes its society
Russian authorities also continue to identify conflict between ethnic Russians and minority groups as a critical issue
Kirill identified "issues with migrants" and ethno-religious tensions as key internal threats to the Russian state during his October 31 speech
and Russian Security Council Deputy Chairperson Dmitry Medvedev noted on October 31 that Russia needs to address its migration issues.[8] Medvedev suggested that Russia should introduce "digital migrant profile[s]," which would reportedly allow Russian authorities to stop foreigners at any time and identify foreigners via electronic immigration or travel documents
ISW has reported at length on the balance that Putin is trying to strike between catering to his pro-war ultranationalist constituency
which espouses extreme anti-migrant sentiments
and his practical need to leverage migrant labor both economically and militarily.[9]
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov met with his North Korean counterpart Choe Son-hui in Moscow on November 1
as the Russian Orthodox Church has used parallel language to rhetorically justify Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine as an existential and civilizational struggle—a struggle into which North Korea has now willingly entered.[13]
Choe's visit to Moscow comes against the backdrop of reports that North Korean troops have already deployed to Kursk Oblast and will soon enter combat alongside Russian forces
US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and US Secretary of State Antony Blinken held a joint press conference with South Korean Foreign Minister Cho Tae-yul and South Korean Defense Minister Kim Yong Hyun on October 31
during which Austin assessed that 8,000 North Korean soldiers are in Kursk Oblast and will enter into combat against Ukrainian forces in "the coming days."[14] Austin stated that Russian forces have trained North Korean troops on how to use artillery systems
and conduct basic tactical infantry maneuvers
North Korean troops are unlikely to present Russia with a long-term solution to its manpower concerns
despite Choe's comments about Pyongyang's indefinite commitment to Russia's war effort
Austin reported that Russian forces are suffering over 1,200 casualties a day (or about 36,000 casualties a month)
and recent US estimates placed Russian recruitment at between 25,000-30,000 new soldiers per month—meaning Russia is just shy of being able to replace its current rate of frontline losses at a 1:1 ratio.[15] The 8,000 North Korean soldiers reportedly preparing to enter combat in Kursk Oblast thus represent about one week's worth of casualties across the entire frontline
North Korea has committed an estimated total of 12,000 troops to Russia.[16] It remains unclear exactly how Russia intends to leverage North Korean manpower
but the commitment of North Korean troops into the type of highly attritional offensive operations that Russia has been pursuing is very likely to lead to high North Korean casualty rates
ISW recently assessed that North Korea likely decided to engage in the war on Russia's behalf in order to gain valuable combat experience in a modern war but noted that the way that the Russian command uses North Korean troops in combat will impact the ability of North Korean forces to meaningfully internalize and disseminate combat experience.[17] If North Korean troops face the same casualty rates as Russian forces
then the battlefield lessons Pyongyang hopes to learn will be undermined
and Kim is unlikely to commit his forces to face such losses on the battlefield indefinitely
The US Department of Defense (DoD) announced a new tranche of military assistance valued at $425 million to Ukraine on November 1
includes Stryker armored personnel carriers (APCs); munitions for National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile Systems (NASAMS); Stinger man-portable air-defense system (MANPADS) missiles; air-to-ground munitions; HIMARS ammunition; 105mm and 155mm artillery ammunition; Tube-launched
Wire-guided (TOW) missiles; Counter-Unmanned Aerial Systems (c-UAS) equipment and munitions; and Javelin and AT-4 anti-armor systems.[18] The package also includes small arms and ammunition
could assist Ukrainian forces in kitting or resupplying new or existing Ukrainian brigades
possibly alleviating some burdens that Ukrainian officials have previously identified in equipping new Ukrainian brigades.[19]
Russian federal censor Roskomnadzor failed to enforce its plan to deanonymize Russian social media accounts by its stated November 1 deadline
Roskomnadzor and the Russian Ministry of Digital Development published a draft resolution on October 4 requiring social media pages with an audience of over 10,000 subscribers to register their identity and contact information with the Russian government.[20] Russian officials specified that public discussion of the resolution would continue until October 31
meaning that the resolution should have come into force on November 1
A Russian milblogger claimed that he contacted Roskomnadzor on October 31 to verify if the resolution would go into effect on November 1 and that Roskomnadzor officials responded that the "law is still in development."[21] Roskomnadzor reportedly told the milblogger that it will publish additional information about the law on Roskomnadzor’s website soon
Russian milbloggers commented on Roskomnadzor's response
with one stating that Russia is passing "draconian laws" to leak milbloggers’ data but had failed to instruct the milbloggers on how to abide by the law before it was supposed to come into force.[22]
We do not report in detail on Russian war crimes because these activities are well-covered in Western media and do not directly affect the military operations we are assessing and forecasting
We will continue to evaluate and report on the effects of these criminal activities on the Ukrainian military and the Ukrainian population and specifically on combat in Ukrainian urban areas
We utterly condemn Russian violations of the laws of armed conflict and the Geneva Conventions and crimes against humanity even though we do not describe them in these reports

and ISW assessed that Russian forces had seized the settlement as of October 31.[32] Russian forces also continued ground attacks southeast of Kupyansk near Kolisnynivka
and Vyshneve; northwest of Kreminna near Druzhelyubivka
and Terny; and south of Kreminna in the Serebryanske forest area on October 31 and November 1.[33]
Russian Subordinate Main Effort #3 – Donetsk Oblast (Russian objective: Capture the entirety of Donetsk Oblast

A Russian milblogger claimed that elements of the Russian Aerospace Forces (VKS) are conducting daily airstrikes in the Siversk direction to support 3rd Combined Arms Army (CAA) (formerly 2nd Luhansk People's Republic Army Corps [LNR AC]) ground operations in this direction.[34]
Russian forces conducted limited ground attacks near Chasiv Yar on November 1 but did not advance
The deputy commander of a Ukrainian brigade operating in the Chasiv Yar direction reported that Russian forces are conducting daily assaults in small groups
and Ukrainian Luhansk Group of Forces Spokesperson Major Anastasia Bobovnikova reported that Russian forces are attacking Ukrainian positions in groups of two to three personnel and hiding in foxholes or basements before rapidly trying to advance again.[35] Chechen Akhmat Spetsnaz Commander Apty Alaudinov claimed that Chechen Akhmat Spetsnaz forces recently advanced three kilometers past the Siverskyi Donets-Donbas Canal and seized a part of the Chasiv Yar-Kostyantynivka (T0504) road
likely in reference to recent Russian advances along the T0504 road across the canal just south of Chasiv Yar.[36] Fighting continued on the flanks of Chasiv Yar and south of Chasiv Yar near Stupochky on November 1.[37] Elements of the Russian 331st Airborne (VDV) and 5th Anti-Aircraft Missile regiments (both of the 98th VDV Division) are reportedly operating near Chasiv Yar.[38]

including near Novodanylivka (north of Robotyne) on October 31 and November 1.[53] Elements of the Russian 42nd Motorized Rifle Division (58th Combined Arms Army [CAA]
Southern Military District [SMD]) and elements of the Russian 7th Airborne (VDV) Division reportedly continue operating in the Zaporizhia direction.[54]
Russian forces continued limited ground attacks in east (left) bank Kherson Oblast on October 31 and November 1
but there were no confirmed changes to the frontline.[55] Elements of the Russian BARS-33 (Russian Combat Army Reserve) Detachment and 80th Motorized Rifle Brigade (14th Army Corps [AC]

and Drone Campaign (Russian Objective: Target Ukrainian military and civilian infrastructure in the rear and on the frontline)
Russian forces conducted a series of drone and missile strikes against Ukraine on the night of October 31 to November 1
The Ukrainian Air Force reported that Russian forces launched three Kh-59/69 cruise missiles from the airspace over occupied Kherson Oblast and 48 drones
including Shahed-type drones and other unidentified drone types
from Oryol and Kursk oblasts.[58] The Ukrainian Air Force reported that Ukrainian forces downed 31 drones over Kirovohrad
and Poltava oblasts; that 14 Russian drones were "lost in location," presumably due to unspecified Ukrainian countermeasures; and that three drones flew into Belarusian airspace
The Ukrainian Air Force reported that Ukrainian forces also downed one Kh-59/69 missile and that the other two missiles did not strike their intended targets due to Ukrainian countermeasures
The Ukrainian Air Force reported that falling Russian drone debris struck several civilian enterprises and residential buildings in Poltava
Cherkasy Oblast Head Ihor Taburets stated that Russian drones damaged several apartment buildings
and struck a state enterprise near Zolotonosha
Cherkasy Oblast.[59] The Poltava Oblast Military Administration reported that Russian drones damaged residential buildings in the oblast
and Ukrainian Emergency Services reported that a Russian missile strike damaged a fire station in Odesa City.[60]
an independent Belarusian monitoring group
reported on November 1 that Russian drones entered Belarusian airspace near Lyubech
Russian Mobilization and Force Generation Efforts (Russian objective: Expand combat power without conducting general mobilization)
The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) introduced a new system on November 1 allowing Russian veterans and their families to confirm their veteran statuses digitally
likely in response to persistent Russian servicemen and milblogger complaints regarding inefficient and overly bureaucratic veteran registration processes.[63] The Russian MoD announced that veterans and their families can use the Unified Portal of State and Municipal Services to obtain electronic veterans status certificates that entitle them to state benefits
The Kremlin’s efforts to resolve long-standing problems with the compensation and recognition of veterans are likely a part of Russia’s efforts to continue the voluntary recruitment of Russian troops as opposed to declaring partial or general mobilization
The success of this voluntary recruitment relies at least in part on the Kremlin’s ability to fulfill its promises to Russian veterans
ISW continues to assess that the Kremlin’s efforts to avoid mobilization are committing Russia to long-term financial and societal responsibilities to support veterans and their families.[64]
The Russian system for the electronic distribution of conscription summonses became fully operational on November 1
likely as part of the Kremlin’s effort to improve its mobilization system which proved to be inefficient during partial mobilization in September 2022
The Russian government passed a resolution on April 19
which specified that the unified registry for Russian citizens responsible for military service will become operational on November 1
2024.[65] The resolution stated that Russian men of conscription age will receive summonses electronically
and summonses will be marked as "received" even if selected men do not open them.[66] The Russian government previously launched the trial period for the electronic summons distribution system in September 2024 and began widely using the system for the Fall 2024 conscription cycle.[67] ISW has observed that Russian regional and military officials routinely distribute false or misleading summonses that follow the structure of conscription summonses
and it is possible that the Russian government will use this digital platform to coerce more Russians into enlisting in the Russian military under false pretenses.[68]
Several Russian federal subjects significantly increased the one-time military enlistment bonuses to incentivize volunteer recruitment and meet the Russian MoD’s regional recruitment quotas
Chuvashia Republic reportedly doubled its one-time military enlistment bonuses to one million rubles ($10,178) from 500,000 rubles ($5,089).[69] Orenburg Oblast similarly increased one-time military enlistment bonuses from 400,000 rubles ($4,079) to one million rubles
and Perm Krai officials are reportedly offering 4.52 million rubles ($46,000) for the first year of military service - including a one-time enlistment bonus of 1.5 million rubles ($15,268).[70] Ufa City officials in the Bashkortostan Republic are reportedly offering 500,000-ruble discounts for the purchase of apartments to people who enlist to fight in Ukraine.[71]
The Ukrainian Resistance Center reported that Chechen Republic Head Ramzan Kadyrov is reportedly preparing to deploy 84,000 troops from Chechnya to Ukraine due to the Kremlin’s ongoing problems with force generation.[72]
Russian Technological Adaptations (Russian objective: Introduce technological innovations to optimize systems for use in Ukraine)
A Russian insider source claimed that the Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) is searching for replacements for American microcircuits in the Russian market
likely as a result of sanctions.[75] The insider source claimed that the Chelyabinsk "Polet" radio plant
is a year late in supplying the Russian MoD with navigation
and flight control systems and communications and lighting equipment
stated that the "Polet" plant was unable to purchase components necessary to construct these systems due to US-imposed sanctions
The "Polet" plant reportedly found two Russian microcircuits manufacturers to produce analogs to American components
but the production of these components will take an estimated 390 days.[76]
Activities in Russian-occupied areas (Russian objective: Consolidate administrative control of annexed areas; forcibly integrate Ukrainian citizens into Russian sociocultural
ISW is not reporting on activities in Russian-occupied areas today
Significant activity in Belarus (Russian efforts to increase its military presence in Belarus and further integrate Belarus into Russian-favorable frameworks and Wagner Group activity in Belarus)
Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko approved the draft of a Belarusian-Russian agreement on the procedure for the mutual enforcement of court decisions on October 31.[77]

Over a quarter of Cherkasy online media news is about the war
the posts in the feeds are about volunteer and charity initiatives
These are the results of an analysis conducted by the Institute of Mass Information with the purpose of investigating the number of war-related news
and of creating a general outline of how Cherkasy online media cover the war
The analysis included all news from the 18000, Procherk, Zmi.ck.ua, Provse, and Vycherpno news channels for the last week of July
Online media published 180 news items that are directly or indirectly related to russia's war against Ukraine
was about the full-scale invasion and its consequences
Journalists of the 18000 and Vycherpo websites wrote about the war most often
Their news feeds contained 35% and 28% of "military" news
Vycherpno and 18000 contained the most such news items – 10 and 11
Posts about our military losses comprise almost as much
Mostly these are news about the fallen soldiers or about bidding farewell to them
The 18000 website published the most such news – 11 items
10 appeared in the Zmi.ck.ua and Vycherpno feeds each
the occupiers in Kherson oblast have revived 'Berkut' and are torturing people" on Procherk
The share of news about infrastructure damage in the region is only 2% of the total. All online media outlets whose feeds were analyzed, except for Zmi.ck.ua, posted the statistics provided by the head of the Cherkasy RMA Ihor Taburets at his meeting with journalists
and Cherkasy districts have been damaged by rocket attacks on Cherkasy oblast during the full-scale war
Note that the analyzed publications do meet the journalistic standards. An exception was the article "Uman Hasidim complain about refugees who left a mess in the hotel rooms" on the Provse website, which was also reposted by Procherk
The headline and the text of the material contains hate speech targeting internally displaced persons
the text contains a certain level of generalization
and the source of the report's core narrative is the story of an aquaintance of the media outlet's spokesperson
which should also have been a deterrent for journalists
the material does not carry any other information except for the thesis presented in the headline
leads to the conclusion that the purpose of the article was to create a negative image of immigrants
