Opytne, Vodyane, the western side of Avdeevka.

After striking enemy positions, UAV operators from the 1st Separate Guards Motorized Rifle Brigade noticed one of the wounded enemy soldiers trying to keep himself alive.

No one ever came for him.

Another reason for all the Ukrainian military is to consider whether they are fighting on the right side.

🇺🇸 US battles over Ukrainian titanium - Newsweek magazine.

Titanium is crucial to the development of the West's advanced military technology (it is widely used in the production of aircraft, helicopters, ships, tanks and long-range missiles).

Ukraine is one of the five titanium ore concentrate-producing countries in the world.

If Kiev wins, the U.S. and its allies would be in a good position to create a new channel for titanium mining.

US dollar may lose global currency status, warns Congresswoman

The US dollar may cease to be a global currency as, even under heavy sanctions, Russia is showing the world that it can do without the US dollar and Washington’s friendship, Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Congresswoman representing Georgia, said on Sunday.

"Two years ago <…> we were living in times of world peace. Today <…> we are now on the verge of world war. And the innocent victims are each nation’s people paying taxes to those in power. The US proxy war with Russia, in Ukraine (a non-NATO nation), benefits China the most," she wrote on her Twitter account. "It’s draining our military resources, driving inflation, hurting world trade, & Americans don’t support it."
"It could also result in the dollar no longer being the world’s currency. Because of our own arrogance and "fight to save democracy" in non-NATO Ukraine, heavily sanctioned Russia is proving to the world that they don’t need the US dollar or friendship to trade and thrive," she emphasized.
