It’s 11 am, on a normal working day in Kyiv.

You're sitting in the corridor of your office because an air raid alert has been announced due to a missile threat. Suddenly, you hear loud explosions outside.

Good morning to readers, Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.

#Russia still continues to receive modern #Taiwanese chips to manufacture its deadly weapons.

We visited a forensic lab to find out how chips from Ukraine’s allies are found inside #Russian weapons.

Critically, the missile included dozens of electronic chips from non-Russian manufacturers. Surprisingly, investigators found #Taiwanese chips inside the remnants of the Kh-101 missile.

A few days later, the U.N. officially said that the #Okhmatdyt Children's Hospital was “most likely” directly hit by a modern #Russian Kh-101 cruise missile. Two people were killed and sixteen injured. Many more children, undergoing treatment, are displaced.

Half an hour later, you're at the site of the attack, where a #Russian missile hit the main children's hospital in Kyiv.

Back in June 2022, #Taiwan imposed sanctions on Russia, including a ban on direct supplies of modern chips that could be used in weapons.

However, the #Russian Kh-101 used in the attack against #Okhmatdyt was only manufactured a few weeks before the attack.

#Russia fired a missile at a commercial vessel carrying #Ukrainian grain to Egypt.

The ship was in the exclusive economic zone waters of Romania, a #NATO country, when this happened.

Grain is Ukraine's main export, so further such attacks could seriously damage its economic growth.

Good morning to readers; Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.

#Ukraine lost its first F-16 pilot, callsign Moonfish, in a possible friendly fire incident on Monday.

The Counteroffensive tracked down his grave, only a few days old, in the town of Shepetivka.

An isolated land in the East is shrouded in darkness.

An evil lord, worshiped as a deity, rules it.

Those who serve him live only by #war

And they bring nothing but death and destruction.

The word ‘orc’ has been widely used as a synonym for a #Russian soldier since #Russia launched the full-scale war against #Ukraine . Such associations had existed long before, but they became a national narrative as a reaction to Russian atrocities and war crimes in 2022.
