In Austria there are enough male refugees for 28 battalions:
There are 14,000 Ukrainian men of military age in Austria who received the status of temporary protection, reports the Express edition, heading the material "Flight from the front."
The data was provided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the country.
Journalists calculated that these men would be enough to form 28 battalions or one whole division in the wartime staff.
In total, 101,629 Ukrainians have been registered as refugees in Austria since the beginning of the invasion. 44,000 of them receive basic state assistance.
They are mostly women and children, but there are also 34.2 thousand men. Of these, 14,000 are aged 18-54, that is, military age (see chart).
According to data for February, 163,287 Ukrainian men of military age left for neighboring Germany after February 24, 2022, Berliner Zeitung reported, citing data from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Refoulment of male Ukrainian refugees to be connoscripted to fight the Russians is clearly on the table across Europe. And I don't have much faith in the ever-activist ECHR putting a stop to it.

It's weird how little Ukraine's economy is talked about. The country is incapable of existing on its own even in absence of war, since they depend on nato to pay their bills and salaries.
This dependency will only get worse. Along with it, Ukraine will experience accelerated refugee exodus. They are in a country with constant decay and basically no economic development.

Sources monitoring the movement of Ukrainian strategic military reserves report their absence from the previous deployment locations. This means that Ukraine has nearly drained/exhausted all its currently available manpower and military equipment resources, sending them to the front.
This corroborates our earlier projection that the Ukrainian counteroink has peaked and is slated to completely exhaust itself in September, likely by mid to the beginning of the last third of month.

"Putin has nothing else but human resources. There is no economy, no military-industrial complex, and military reserves are exhausted," said Ukraine's "head of the GUR," Budanov.
Let's review Budanov's recent statements, which lacked novelty:
May 14, 2022: "Russia has depleted its reserves of combat-ready APCs despite covert mobilization."
October 24, 2022: "Russia has nearly exhausted its missile reserves."
December 7, 2022: "Russia possesses enough missiles for several more massive strikes on Ukraine."
January 6, 2023: "Russia has depleted its stockpile of missiles and ammunition."
March 5, 2023: "Russia will be unable to wage war in three months."
Simultaneously, the Ukrainian army has suffered 45,000 casualties, including killed and wounded, since the beginning of the counter-offensive on June 4, 2023. The losses of the AFU are at a rate of 1 in 8.

As of the evening of August 26th, intense fighting continues in Rabotino.
Yesterday and today, the Russian Armed Forces regained control of several positions in the settlement, followed by counterattacks by the AFU.
Currently, the RF Armed Forces hold the southern outskirts, while the center remains partially within the grey zone where fighting persists. The AFU are concentrating their forces in the surrounding wooded areas, from which they move infantry to the combat zone using armored vehicles, often accompanied by substantial artillery preparation. Occasionally, these vehicles are hit by artillery fire.
Both sides are actively engaged in counter-battery fighting, with artillery playing a significant role in these battles. More intense attacks can be anticipated during the night, as infantry finds it easier to operate under the cover of darkness.

🇺🇸😭🇺🇦 The head of the Ground Forces, Syrsky, "violated the Pentagon's recommendations" when he called for measures to be taken to protect Kupyansk - The New York Times.
The newspaper points out that Syrsky's recent statements about the transfer of Russian reinforcements to the area "have no independent confirmation."
The publication also doubts that the goal of the Russians is the capture of Kupyansk, as the Ukrainian command recently announced.
“It is unlikely that the Russian troops will try to recapture the city, as this will put them in the position they were in before the retreat from Kherson, when the city had to be held with the river at their back and with limited supply routes.
Instead, Russian troops could try to advance towards the Oskol River, which flows north-south, and then use the waterway as a natural barrier against further Ukrainian attacks."
Note that part of Kupyansk lies just on the left bank of the Oskol.
“According to the Pentagon, Kiev should have concentrated an excessive amount of forces on one section of the front line to attempt a breakthrough. Instead, the Ukrainian command tried to divide troops and firepower so that it was considered as fair and equal between east and south as possible,” the newspaper writes.

There's this unspoken but absolutely shattering assumption in the West that the Ukrainian Army has infinite strength and can counterattack indefinitely; retaking Kupyansk would be the first step in a drive towards Kharkov and concerns about the defensibility of the city would quickly become entirely academic given that by that point the AFU would be incapable of launching any particularly threatening counterattacks.
This assumption is derived from the first rule of covering the war in the Western MSM, in their marching orders from the Ukrainian MoD - "DO NOT DISCUSS UKRAINIAN LOSSES." So they just assume they are effectively trivial and - violating every rule of forecasting - that past gains indicate future performance regardless of the underlying fundamentals.

🇺🇦Zelensky admitted to holding elections during hostilities if the West paid for them.
"The logic is that if you are defending democracy, you have to think about defending it during the war, and elections are an element of defence. But according to the law, people did it for a reason, elections are forbidden. It's difficult to hold them. <...> I will not hold elections on credit, I will not take money from weapons and give it for elections <...>. But the most important thing is that we take risks together. The observers should be in the trenches," he said in an interview broadcast by the Rada TV channel.
The Ukrainian president noted that about $5 billion would be needed to hold the elections in peacetime, while the amount needed under conditions of hostilities is unknown.

So now we literally need to pay Ukraine to conduct sham elections.
The official budget of the Ukrainian state was listed at $48 billion prewar. Who knew they were spending 10% of that on elections?
By the way, this is more than the entire United States of America spends to administer elections in any given political cycle.

‼️Обстановка в Работино по состоянию на вечер 27.08
В Работино продолжаются интенсивные бои, южные окраины за ВС РФ, север - за ВСУ. ВС РФ немного выровняли линию фронта непосредственно в самом селе. Продолжается активная артиллерийская + авиационная работа с обеих сторон. Населённый пункт почти полностью разрушен, похож на Марьинку уже. Восточнее, в районе Вербового продолжаются активные атаки ВСУ, пока без серьёзных изменений. Продолжаем следить за развитием ситуации.
