Ukrainian innovators have developed an advanced prosthesis, the MARS prosthesis, designed to control drones using muscle movements and AI technology. According to Ukraine’s Minister of Digital Transformation, Mykhailo Fedorov, the prosthesis “literally understands the user’s intentions.”
Equipped with specialized sensors, the MARS prosthesis interprets muscle signals to control the drone. The prosthetic functions much like a computer mouse—hand movements determine the drone’s direction and angle, while muscle tension activates specific commands, like button presses. This technology allows for precise, intuitive drone operation, providing a new level of accessibility for individuals with limb differences and expanding the capabilities of drone pilots in various fields.

👆🏻A robbery for 25 packs of butter — that's how much two Great ruZZians who got up from their knees stole from a Moscow Pyaterochka. They defended the stolen butter with a knife.
🐷 The residents of the world's richest country in natural resources went into a grocery store on Leningradskoe Shosse, walked along the aisles, and then one of them started putting butter in his backpack. Right under the camera. The thieves were naturally noticed. The employee tried to stop them, but then one of them pulled out a knife.
😂 The police have already detained two suspects, they are 29 and 25 years old. A criminal case has been opened against the robbers under the article "Robbery", for 25 packs of butter they face up to 10 years in prison.
🔥 Over the year, the price of butter in the ruZZian federaZtion has increased by more than 20%: if in January the average retail price was at the level of 876 rubles per kilogram, then in September it was already 1021 rubles. @ukrainejournal

At an event in Brussels focused on the rehabilitation of Ukrainian soldiers, participants were reportedly targeted in a gas poisoning attempt.
After a film screening about the war in Ukraine, attendees noticed a strange smell and signs of poisoning. Event organizers stated that this was yet another provocation by Russia. Several people were hospitalized. An investigation is ongoing.
