Is Russia at risk of running out of tanks? - DW News
After more than two years of war in Ukraine - speculation is rife on how much military hardware Russia still has at its disposal. Open-source investigators Oryx say more than 2,500 Russian tanks have been lost since the beginning of the conflict.
Russian scum attacked two children and three adults with a drone in Kherson - Regional Military Administration (OVA).
As a result of the attack, two girls, aged 12 and 15, were hospitalized in moderate conditions.
Later, three adults who were with the children sought medical assistance at the hospital on their own.
"Due to the dropping of explosives from the drone, a 12-year-old girl received an explosive injury and shrapnel injuries to her head, torso, legs and arms. Her 15-year-old sister has explosive and craniocerebral injuries, a contusion", reported the head of Kherson OVA Oleksandr Prokudin.
❤️🩹 🥹Mother of the National Guardsman from Kryvyi Rih, released from captivity, Vitalii Senchenko, spoke about her emotions when she found out about the exchange.
"I actually dreamed about this day, I imagined it, I dreamed about it. But apart from tears, you know, joy, nothing else happened, not a single preparation worked. " Mom, I'm home, I'm in Ukraine." And then, of course - "Mommy, don't cry. All good to me"
- says Oksana Latanska.
And she added that she had dreamed of hearing these words for so long:
"Two years, one month and one week of enemy captivity after 86 hellish days of defending Mariupol...
Soon I will hug you, my son, and thank God for saving, protecting, returning you. (...) I was waiting! I waited! "
- she wrote.
https://t.me/WarriorsUkrainian/30876Ukraine has surpassed Russia in UAV production, manufacturing 3,000 FPV drones per day, according to Forbes.
Forbes technology journalist David Hambling compared the use of the most common UAVs by Russian and Ukrainian forces. He noted that Russia's primary attack UAV, the "Lancet," is more powerful than its Ukrainian counterparts and is primarily used for counter-battery combat. However, it often fails to destroy well-protected Western howitzers, such as the German PzH-2000, or ends up targeting high-quality mock-ups of weapons. Moreover, the Russian army receives only 300 Lancets per month.
In contrast, Ukrainian industry produces 3,000 strike drones per day, which has a significant impact on the battlefield.
Summarizing the comparison, Hambling writes:
"The Lancet is certainly effective, but it is overshadowed by other drones. In a war that requires both quantity and quality, Russia will lose both."
During the Ukraine-Belgium match, fans unfurled a banner featuring Nazariy “Hrinka” Hryntsevych.
The image, titled “Peace Has a Price,” compiled by artificial intelligence, includes 182 photos of fallen Ukrainian soldiers who were also supporters of Ukrainian football clubs in civilian life.

If you fight on Ukraine’s side don't ever surrender. Never mind that they are recruiting thousands of mercenaries to fight on their side.
