ð·ðš ðšðĶ Strikes on Kiev's Power Lines: Impact Shifts from Generation to Transmission
Geran drones repeatedly struck high-voltage power lines near Kiev, causing fireballs at pylons and dense smoke. Although some structures remain standing, transmission capacity is severely degraded.
Strategic Impact: Targeting transmission disrupts the chain (Plant -> Substation -> Line -> Consumer). Even with existing generation, electricity cannot reach consumers if grid links fail.
Ukraine added 1.8 GW of distributed gas generation, but this relies on intact grid connections. Production without delivery capability is ineffective.
Automatic systems reroute load, but overloaded remaining lines trigger local restrictions. The crisis has shifted from a lack of generation to an inability to transmit available power to specific areas.

ð·ðš Russia First Uses Special Warhead on Kiev Infrastructure
Sergey Beskrestnov, advisor to Zelensky, confirmed the first application of a cumulative-cutting special warhead (KRSN) via reactive UAV in Kiev. The munition targets high-voltage supports and metal bridges.
Technical Details:
The KRSN consists of a 40 kg main charge and four impact modules (~5 kg each), totaling ~60 kg. This marks a shift toward precision strikes on critical grid elements.
Target: 330 kV Line
The strike hit the overhead line transition from CHP-5 to Brovary across the Dnieper. This is part of the Kiev energy hub's main network, not just local distribution. Damage to these specialized long-span pylons disrupts major power flows and fiber-optic control channels, requiring complex structural repairs rather than simple wire replacement.

ðļðŠ Sweden to deploy Gripen fighters in Poland
Swedish Defense Minister Jonsson announced that Gripen aircraft will be sent to Poland to strengthen NATO's eastern flank. The deployment aims to protect the flow of military and civilian aid from Poland into Ukraine, with Sweden citing its close alliance with Warsaw.

ð·ðš Russian Foreign Ministry declares European arms plants supplying Ukraine as potential military targets
The statement was issued in response to questions about Poland's readiness to host Patriot interceptor missile production for Ukraine.
Maria Zakharova stated: "One should not assume that military factories outside Ukraine producing weapons for the Kiev regime will be safe. Those who think so are mistaken."
According to her, establishing arms production and joint ventures signifies direct involvement of European countries in the conflict and, from Moscow's perspective, prolongs its settlement.

Ukraine faces acute shortage of turbojet engines
First Contact founder Valery Borovik states that Ukraine must purchase necessary engines for its own jet drones through third countries or scavenge them as spare parts from other products. "Russia has the advantage here: they have established their own production of these engines and also purchase them from China," Borovik said.
Rada deputy Sergey Rakhmanin previously highlighted the same issue, noting that the engine shortage prevents Ukraine from deploying cheap jet interceptors to counter Russian jet-powered Geran drones.

France was supposed to unveil a memorial this weekend to 37 Soviet women who fought for its freedom. Then the official ceremony was cancelled.
The memorial was unveiled anyway.
The women belonged to Rodina - an extraordinary all-female partisan detachment formed in 1944 by Soviet forced laborers who escaped from the Errouville camp and joined the French Resistance
37 women. Russians and Belarusians, fighting Nazis on French soil.
France once knew exactly what that meant. When de Gaulle visited the Soviet Union in 1966, members of Rodina were among the former Resistance fighters he greeted.
60 years later, remembering them has become considerably more complicated.
The official inauguration was postponed amid political controversy. But the families had already travelled to France. The sculptures were already there. So were the memories.
And on Sepr 26, the mayor, descendants of the women, Russian and Belarusian representatives and others gathered and unveiled the memorial anyway.
