Answer 1

I would recommend using a map:

map $uri $redirect_topic {
    "~^/\d{4}/\d{2}/(?.*)" $topic;
}

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name domain.org;

    if ($redirect_topic) {
        return 301 $scheme://$host/$redirect_topic;
    }

    location / {
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header HOST $http_host;
        proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;
        proxy_pass http://10.240.0.2:2368;
        proxy_redirect off;
    }
}
