The Shahed attacks become larger and larger. At night, Ukraine's Air Force repelled a drone attack.
Out of 167 launched, 106 were shot down and another 56 drones/simulators were supressed by electronic warfare. Mainly the Odesa region suffered from the attacks.

Based on currently available information, Russia is not expected to make major concessions, placing the burden of concessions on Ukraine. The sentiment in Ukraine suggests that it won't accept a lopsided deal. Trump's team is being played by a former KGB officer like children

Trump is simply repeating a Putin talking point here. Russia has insisted on intervening in basic issues of Ukrainian sovereignty for more than a decade. Now Trump is doing Putin’s PR work, making unsustainable arguments for an unjustifiable invasion.

1) Trump and Putin are preparing a common plan to dictate to Ukraine.
2) Ukraine will surprise them (at least Trump) by refusing.
3) The War will continue.
4) The role of Europe will be decisive.
The sad thing is that Europe still cant understand its role. Putin, Trump and now Zelensky know exactly what is happening. European states are still desperately trying to win Trump over.
