🇸🇪 The Swedish government agreed with the pro-government Sweden Democrats on a program of additional military assistance to Ukraine totaling 75 billion kronor ($7.01 billion) over three years.

These materials could have cost me my life. The car is riddled with shrapnel from a mortar, and then there was an hour during which my hands are still shaking: we were followed and pursued for a long time by an enemy FPV drone.

The city is filled with death. Civilian bodies are on the streets and under the rubble. Despite this, volunteers and police continue, under shelling and while risking their lives, to evacuate those who can still be saved."

Photographer Kostiantyn Liberov writes from Vovchansk:

"The photos show the bodies of two civilian women. Next to them are two small specific craters. For those who understand, it is immediately clear that this is not a random mine or artillery strike. With a 90% probability, these are targeted drops from a drone. The women are wearing bright clothing. It is impossible to mistake them for military personnel even from a height.

Russia increasing its drone and missile attacks on Ukraine, and firing missiles that are much harder to shoot down, e.g. ballistic missiles. The amount of Patriot missiles (that are capable of shooting down ballistics) is also limited for Ukraine.

We need more Patriot system and missiles! Our cities and our civilians are unprotected while Russia rains missiles on our heads.

An Ukrainian FPV drone successfully struck a Russian armoured military vehicle in the Bilhorod region inside #ruZZia, demonstrating a robust Ukrainian tactical operation 🔥😎

Big slow low flying Ukrainian drone in Bilhorod region should be easy destroyed. Instead it bombed a military truck & russian soldiers hide behind trees watching next drop. These helples troops have no experience with war shows no help from moscow, bad local command & no weapons.

Destruction of russian armoured vehicles and manpower in Kharkiv region today.

Best pilots.  Best Heroes.  Good munitions.  Slava Ukraine!

Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported the destruction of two Russian "Buk" surface-to-air missile systems during reconnaissance in the Sumy direction.

A coalition of NATO member states has agreed to transfer its F-16s to Ukraine, and as part of the agreement, Danish instructors are training Ukrainian pilots, technicians, and ground crew to operate and maintain the F-16.

F-16 is “more agile” than MiG-29, — call sign “Moonfish”, pilot of the Ukrainian Air Force.

Estonian Member of Parliament Kristo Enn Vaga cycled from Tallinn to Kyiv to raise money for the Ukrainian defenders.

His goal was to show that the war is only a bike ride away. So far, €29,916 has been transferred by donors, and the fundraising is ongoing. The money will be used to buy four-wheel drive vehicles and FPV drones.

The US has unveiled new upgraded Bradley M2A4E1s with an active defence system, which are due to be procured soon.

The vehicle will be equipped with modern thermal imagers for the entire crew and an integrated active defence system called Iron Fist, which is capable of intercepting modern anti-tank missiles. The M2A4E1 will replace the combat vehicles that were transferred from the US Army to Ukraine.

First five underground schools to be built in Zaporizhzhia region, - head of the regional military administration.

"Our goal is to provide an opportunity for all children who want to return to offline learning. In total, we plan to build 10 underground schools in the future," head of the administration said.

Our kids deserve a better future. They deserve schools above ground. Ukraine needs air defense to protect our children.
