Ukraine and Moldova continue to implement agreements on joint control at border crossing points. During an online meeting between Prime Minister of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal and Prime Minister of Moldova Dorin Recean, a number of protocols were signed aimed at simplifying and reducing the time required for citizens and cargo to cross the Ukrainian-Moldovan border.
“Today’s agreements will not only intensify trade and economic cooperation between Ukraine and Moldova but will also increase the efficiency and capacity of the border crossing points in line with the best European practices. The latter is especially important in the context of our joint movement towards the European Union,” Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal stressed.
During the online meeting, the heads of government discussed the further development of logistics. Denys Shmyhal stressed that Ukraine was keen to extend the practice of joint control to all checkpoints with neighboring European countries: “This is crucial for expanding the capacity and quality of border control.”
The prime ministers of Ukraine and Moldova also focused on cooperation towards European integration, including the fulfillment of the conditions for pre-accession negotiations with the EU.

Ukrainian guerrillas have discovered secret documents revealing problems with cruise missile production in Russia, according to ATESH.
Agents gained access to secret documents of the Dubna Machine-Building Plant, Moscow region. They found that the plant was unable to fulfill the annual state order for the production of X-32 cruise missiles.
“By November 10, the plant was supposed to produce 80 missiles but produced only 61. According to a source in the plant’s management, the state order was too large and exceeded the plant’s capacity by more than 3 times,” the guerrillas say.
According to the guerrillas, the plant’s management has asked to postpone the production deadline until the end of December this year. There are still 19 missiles to be made.
ntelligence officers found out that the X-32 cruise missiles are being supplied to the 52nd Heavy Bomber Aviation Regiment and the 35020-B military unit of the Bila garrison.
“Both military units are armed with Tu-22M3M bombers, specially converted from Tu-22M3 to launch these missiles,” the guerrillas say.
Ukrainian partisans are actively conducting reconnaissance in the occupied territories. They collect information on the location of Russian military units, equipment, and ammunition depots. This information is then passed on to the Ukrainian Defense Forces.
