Today, the head of the Center for Military Legal Studies reported that the West has enough shells for only one major counteroffensive by Ukraine. To further analyze this information, experts have suggested that the shortage of shells for the Ukrainian Armed Forces can be compensated by F-16 fighters, with the United States and European countries increasing production of ammunition to supply the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Additionally, other ways to compensate for the shortage of shells include the availability of aviation, such as F-16s, the use of more JDAM guided bombs, and the use of long-range missiles. Ukraine is also increasing production of ammunition and Poland is ready to take an unprecedented step and transfer its MiG-29 fighters to Ukraine. The F-16 is a powerful aircraft that can effectively destroy the enemy, especially when it comes to intercepting cruise missiles. American pilots have visited Ukraine multiple times and have had no complaints about the conditions for basing F-16s. This will help Ukraine to have a winning strategy in the battlefield.

A previously convicted young man broke into a women's restroom in a shopping center in Brovary. He attacked a woman in one of the stalls, threatened her with a knife, and attempted to sexually assault her. Fortunately, his attempt was thwarted by a woman who entered the restroom after him, causing him to flee. Employees and visitors of the mall apprehended the attacker and called the police. He has been detained and is facing up to five years in prison for attempted rape.

Following the International Criminal Court's decision to arrest Russian President Vladimir Putin, the Kremlin is searching for a replacement and has appointed GUR representative Yusov as a potential successor.

President Zelenskyy has signed a law that will provide compensation to owners of housing that has been damaged or destroyed as a result of hostilities. Those affected will receive digital housing certificates that will entitle them to compensation, beginning February 24, 2022. This law does not apply to properties that were located in the temporarily occupied territory at the time martial law was declared.

A person who is said to resemble Russian President Vladimir Putin reportedly made an unexpected trip to the Crimea region, which is currently under Russian control, according to Russian media outlets.
