Ukrainian society is resisting at both the military and civilian levels. To provide concrete support, an international solidarity convoy will go on the road to Ukraine at the end of November.

Despite an increasingly trying war, Ukrainian society continues to hold on and fight. On the front, the Ukrainian army has managed to break through enemy lines in Kharkiv, Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia. All these advances are in addition to the 540 km² already gained this summer. But a mass mobilization is being prepared in Russia, although it is officially denied on the eve of the Duma elections, from 18-20 September. It could mean several hundred thousand new recruits, to compensate for the enormous human losses on the front. More than 110,000 young Russians have left for Georgia to escape it.
