Day 1690 and Ukraine woke up incredibly angry this morning. "Used", "betrayed" and "disgusted" just 3 of the words most commonly heard, as the former leader of the free world managed to tarnish the reputation of the U.S. yet more. I've never missed a day. This is the daily 🧵

‼️ Russia: “Hungarian authorities have prepared a criminal case against Orban for the arrest of Ukrainian cash collectors carrying 70 million euros in gold and cash.” 👀 🍿 ru.themoscowtimes.com/2026/10/02/v...
Hungarian authorities have prepared a criminal case against Orban for the arrest of Ukrainian cash collectors carrying 70 million euros in gold and cash.

Having secured a constitutional majority in the April elections, Hungary's new authorities launched a campaign dubbed "Operation Purification Fire" to dismantle the system of political corruption built by Viktor Orbán during his 16 years in power. One of the first results could be a criminal case against the former prime minister himself, the Financial Times reports.

A ninth Russian region has sharply reduced "funeral payments" due to a lack of funds.

 

Amid a severe budget deficit, Saratov regional authorities have cut the one-time regional payment to the families of fallen service members. According to a regional government decree signed by Vice Governor Mikhail Isaev, the funeral subsidy will be reduced tenfold, from 1 million rubles to 100,000 rubles, effective November 1. Relatives are required to apply for the payment within six months of the official registration of the death; previously, they were allowed six months from the actual date of death.
