The United States is set to transfer 2,000 Humvee armoured vehicles to Ukraine, as reported by Forbes.

The Humvee’s familiar design ensures quick integration into Ukrainian forces. With over 3,000 Humvees received early in the war, Ukrainian soldiers are already proficient with the vehicle, which is praised for its functionality. Its size and maneuverability make it especially useful for Ukraine’s defense strategy, particularly in urban combat where it can navigate narrow streets more effectively than larger tanks and artillery.

Running contrary to today’s positive EU economic numbers, Hungary announces that its economy has entered recession with its second consecutive quarter of negative GDP growth at -0.8% for the third quarter of 2024.

In comparison, Germany’s third-quarter GDP growth came in at +0.2%.

Already the poorest country in the EU, Hungary’s embrace of autocracy and growing alliances with Russia, Iran, and China doesn’t bode well for the nation that Transparency International ranks as the most corrupt in the EU.
