British Ministry of Defence: In July, Russian president Vladimir Putin approved amendments to the 2012 'Foreign Agents Law', which has been widely used to repress opponents of the regime. The new measures are scheduled to come into force on 1 December. The 2012 law defined 'foreign agents' as individuals or organisations who have received financial support from abroad. The amendments will extend the definition to those which are merely under undefined 'influence or pressure' of foreign actors. The Ministry of Justice will also have the power to publish the personal details and addresses of designated 'foreign agents', almost certainly placing them at risk of harassment. The new laws will further extend the repressive powers available to the Russian state. This continues a trend since Putin returned to the presidency in 2012, but which has dramatically accelerated since the invasion of Ukraine. The Kremlin is likely acting pre-emptively to prevent greater domestic dissent as the conflict remains unresolved and increasingly impacts Russians' everyday lives.

Norway and Germany, in cooperation with NATO forces, will undertake the plan to protect critical infrastructure under the sea

British Ministry of Defence: Since October 2022, Russia has repeatedly attacked Ukraine's electricity distribution grid, primarily with cruise missiles. This is likely the first example of Russia attempting to implement the concept of a Strategic Operation for the Destruction of Critically Important Targets (SODCIT), a key component of the military doctrine it has adopted in recent years. Russia envisioned SODCIT as using long-range missiles to strike an enemy state's critical national infrastructure, rather than its military forces, to demoralise the population and ultimately force the state's leaders to capitulate. Russia's strikes continue to cause power shortages resulting in indiscriminate, widespread humanitarian suffering across Ukraine. However, its effectiveness as a strategy has likely been blunted because Russia has already expended a large proportion of its suitable missiles against tactical targets. Also, with Ukraine having successfully mobilised for nine months, material and psychological effect of the SODCIT is likely less than if it was deployed in the initialperiod of a war.
