     In response to #russia #Kharkiv assault, #Ukrainian forces are slowly falling back and are now about 5 miles from the border.

     Although this tactic allows #Russia to gain ground it means that #Ukrainian forces are able to slowly deplete the enemy's military capabilities, NYT reports.

     On May 16, Russia launched a spacecraft into #space in the orbit of U.S. satellites. U.S. intel believes the #satellite could attack and spy on other satellites.

     It was also reported that the #us believes #Russia is developing a space weapon that is able to take out networks of satellites.
