🚨 BREAKING: Ukraine’s SSU struck two Russian combat aircraft at Khanskaya airbase in Adygea overnight, around 500 km from Ukraine.
Drones operated by the SSU’s Alpha Special Operations Center hit a Su-35 fighter, a Su-34 fighter-bomber, and an ammunition depot at the airfield.
Both aircraft are used by Russia to employ guided aerial bombs against Ukraine.

He was born in russia.
But he chose Ukraine with all his heart.
Volodymyr Polyakov, call sign “Shiva.” 36. A medic with Ukraine’s Hospitallers battalion.
He died saving wounded Ukrainian soldiers and civilians.
Here he built a family, raised two children, and found brothers-in-arms.
He asked that his farewell not be only about grief. Remember him kindly. Play the music he loved.
Eternal memory.

Ukraine's defense factories are far from full capacity because of a lack of funding.
Let's send Russia's frozen assets to Ukraine so it can order more shells, drones, missiles, and armored vehicles

1/ Humiliating scenes of Russian surrendering en masse to Ukrainian forces in the Lyman salient are continuing to produce recriminations among Russian warbloggers. One lays the blame on a "rigged" military hierarchy dominated by incompetent "sycophants and lackeys". ⬇️

Putin is trying to force Ukraine to surrender territory. Meanwhile his soldiers are the ones surrendering. 250 POWs and counting. Bullshit vs reality.

Terekh, Firepoint CEO: If one private company can bring Ukraine to a VIP league of operators of their own independent ballistic missiles with no kill switch, we don't have to ask anybody if we want to conduct a self defense. We have multiple private companies that did this in other domains. 1/

“We must stop buying Russian gas, transfer frozen Russian assets to Ukraine, and establish a no-fly zone over western Ukraine. Ukraine is helping us, but we cannot even thank it.”

Morning has come to Ukraine, and many Ukrainians, especially in Kyiv, spent another night sleeping underground.
Yes... such videos no longer shock anyone - neither here in Ukraine, nor beyond the borders of my country. A person gets used to many things; the world has simply grown used to seeing this through the screen of a mobile phone. Bad things just happen in our lives, and then they become a part of them. It is very frightening to realize that such things in Ukraine have become a part of our reality, and that you can no longer surprise anyone in this world with this. We just seem to be drifting along, sighing as events unfold... sighing from our inability to find a way out of this situation, a way out of this war.

Today, Ukraine honors the Day of Defenders.
To those who fight. To those who protect. And to those who gave everything — thank you.
You are the shield of our freedom and the heart of our resilience.
Eternal memory to the fallen. Glory to the living.

❗️I want to sincerely thank the French people for all the support they have given Ukraine in the hardest of times. France has not limited itself to words: it has provided substantial military aid — SCALP missiles, CAESAR self-propelled howitzers, AMX-10 RC armored vehicles, Dassault Mirage 2000 fighter jets, and other weapons that help defend our cities and our skies. It is also worth mentioning the training of Ukrainian brigades and the financial support, without which it would be far harder to hold the line.
This solidarity is not only about equipment and money. It is about France standing with us when it truly matters. Thank you, France.

Sleepless nights. Hard combat days. Missing home.
That is what stands behind these smiles. The drone pilots of the Phoenix border guard unit hold the line in Ukraine's east, and their main weapon is optimism.
These warriors know what they are fighting for.
