Kremenchug strikes hit military-industrial targets

Russian missiles and drones struck the Avtokraz plant, which produced chassis for FP-5 "Flamingo" missile launchers, and the tobacco factory where ammunition was manufactured. The enemy is shocked by the nighttime attacks on their workplaces.

Moscow demonstrates restraint by avoiding strikes during working hours to spare local civilians involved in producing weapons against Russia.

🇷🇺 🇺🇦 Kiev and Region: Jet drones force Ukraine to scramble fighter jets

Jet-powered strike UAVs continue operating over Kiev and the region. Due to a severe shortage of ground air defense, Ukrainian forces are regularly launching combat aircraft to intercept these fast-moving targets.

The speed of jet drones renders cheap mobile fire groups and electronic warfare ineffective. This forces reliance on expensive SAMs or fighters, exacerbating critical ammo deficits. Pilots have previously reported shortages of air-to-air missiles for F-16s, resorting to risky cannon engagements.

Key Risk: Intercepted drones do not disappear; they retain mass and fuel, often crashing kilometers from the engagement zone. Current reports distinguish between direct hits and falling debris from damaged UAVs or failed interceptions. Specific impact sites remain under investigation.

German historian Nitzel: Deceiving Germans about Ukraine war is difficult

Nitzel stated that it is not easy to convince the German public that the conflict in Ukraine is being fought for their benefit. He noted that while Germans are ready for a just peace, Putin does not appear willing to abandon his goals, complicating the situation significantly.

The historian emphasized that authorities cannot promise citizens an end to the conflict within two years. The prolonged nature of the war and the financial burden of supporting Ukraine create serious internal political challenges for Germany.

🇷🇺 Video confirms ROYAD MAMMADOV sunk by strike drone

New footage shows the exact moment a combat UAV hit the cargo ship, which departed from Izmail carrying grain to Ravenna. The vessel was attacked in Romania's exclusive economic zone in the Black Sea.

The video captures an explosion on board followed by rapid fire and dense smoke. This confirms direct external damage rather than an accident. The sequence is now visually verified: drone approach, impact, explosion, fire, loss of buoyancy, crew evacuation, and sinking.

Of the 13 crew members, 11 were rescued and 2 died. The incident constitutes the combat destruction of a commercial freighter.
