Russia's unjustifiable war of aggression in Ukraine

Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Poland:

"Since Russia claims not to be waging war, but rather a so-called 'special military operation,' which by definition should be limited to military facilities, any attacks on other infrastructure, including diplomatic missions, should be considered hostile. Therefore, any attack on Polish diplomatic missions will be considered deliberate and intentional."

The Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that the Russian Federation's actions entail serious legal and international consequences and once again undermine its role as a permanent member of the UN Security Council.

Crimea is beginning to be untenable for the Russians and the Russian fleet had to abandon Sebastapol. I wonder why the Ukrainains do not take out the Kerch bridge as they have the missile capability to do it now!

A Ukrainian soldier who had been presumed dead for almost four years has returned home alive from Russian captivity.
His name is Nazar Daletskyi.
He disappeared in 2022 when his position on the front in Donbas was broken.
For years his family believed he was gone.
The mother was informed that the remains had been identified as his by DNA, and the family held a funeral in the village.
They buried him.
They mourned him.
For years they lived with the belief that Nazar had died in the war.
And then, in 2026, the impossible happened.
Nazar returned home alive in a prisoner exchange after nearly four years of Russian captivity.
One of the most moving photos from his return shows him standing at his own grave.
A man looking down at where his family thought he was buried.
His name was inscribed on the grave.

Russians got a supply problem

Robert Tollast, land warfare expert at the Royal United Service Institute, told BBC Verify that some brigades were estimated to need several hundred tonnes of fuel, food, ammunition and other key supplies every day. He said Ukraine had previously used a long-range strike campaign against Russian air defence units, but the new drone strike ranges "are something else".

"If you are cutting resupply, for example ammunition trucks 100km or more from the front using small drones, and then longer-range drones are going after larger logistical sites, this is a very serious problem for the Russians," he said.

Ukraine's Hornet drones are equipped with an AI-targeting system which has been trained on thousands of hours of videos of Russian military targets gathered over the last four years, Nick Brown, a weapons expert from defence intelligence company Janes, told BBC Verify. They can also access the Starlink satellite network to connect to operators over longer distances, a system that is also more resistant to jamming by Russian forces.

"Ukraine can launch hundreds of these loitering munitions towards a rough target area over 100 miles away and then use AI to detail them on to Russian military targets as they find them," he said.
