Ryuu96 and the others have mentioned a few attacks from UAV's in the last few days. But can Ukraine increase production of these so that a proper campaign against Russian industry can start?
Trade them in for more Bradleys!
Ukraine has withdrawn US-supplied Abrams M1A1 tanks from the front line due to Russian drone attacks. Five out of 31 are known to be lost. The U.S. will work with Ukraine to reset tactics, said Joint Chiefs of Staff Vice Chairman Adm. Christopher Grady https://t.co/NA5Izuuuje

Yeah, future tanks need way better capabilities to defend against attacks from the air or you need more other vehicles with theses capabilities defending them . Right now tanks are already much less useful as some years ago and this will get worse every year. At least modern tanks often save the life of the operators after drone impacts
Western nations need to be investing rapidly into anti-drone technology, I believe that drone warfare is sadly the future, tanks are being taken out by a few thousand $ drones, an entire naval fleet is crippled by drones, etc. It's not like drones are the only important thing but as the technology advances they'll only become more and more deadlier.
Need to be shoving anti-drone technology on board every MBT, IFV, etc.
A Russian official came straight to a college to recruit 18-year-old schoolchildren to go to war. He brought with him one who expressed a desire to sign a contract with the Ministry of Defense to die in Ukraine, since there is "no work in his town, nothing to do".

Two British men have been charged with helping Russian intelligence after a suspected arson attack on a Ukraine-linked business.
Dylan Earl, 20, from Elmesthorpe in Leicestershire, and Jake Reeves, 22, from Croydon, were investigated following a fire at a warehouse in east London in March.
They are the first people charged under the new National Security Act 2023.

This was dumb, always reactive instead of proactive. Russia was bombing Ukraine's energy infrastructure since the start but ATACMS redline could only be removed once Russia used North Korean weapons to bomb Ukraine with. Like...So if Russia never imported North Korean missiles then ATACMS never would have been sent? Okay so since Russia is bombing Ukraine from Russia using North Korean and Iranian weapons then surely Ukraine can use western weapons to bomb Russian territory with, right? nah that's somehow different, Lol.

Lytvynenko also very clear re stakes: “Our soldiers r fighting not only for Crimea, Donbas but for Kyiv, Dnipro, Zaporizhia, Lviv. So that these cities don’t become Bakhmut. Russians not planning USSR 2.0 but Bucha style massacre country-wide. Their arrival means 100,000s deaths”

Western partners asked Greece to send S-300 or Patriot air defense systems to Ukraine. However, Greece will not supply them because the country says it needs them for their own defense.

The situation in Donetsk is becoming increasingly worrying. AFU is under heavy pressure.

In the last days, Russians have widened their control around Ocheretyne, taking Novobakhmutivka and entering Soloviove.
At the same time, Russians pushed deeper into Krasnohorivka. 1/
Further developments depend on Russian actions. If they concentrate heavy forces in the area of these few small villages to reinforce success, they may gain some more ground. However there's still a long way before they can threaten any important towns in this direction. 3/

Russia is censoring books by literally blacking out entire sections of text as it wages war on what it calls “LGBT ideology.” Here’s a new biography of Pasolini released in bookstores there this month, with anything concerning sexual identity behind a think black line. pic.twitter.com/arpcKE070F

Several regions in Russia have already raised one-time payments to the new servicemen who signed a contract with the Russian Defense Ministry to 1 million rubles. That's about £9,000 in hand.

Several regions in Russia have already raised one-time payments to the new servicemen who signed a contract with the Russian Defense Ministry to 1 million rubles. That's about £9,000 in hand.
In the Krasnodar region, the payment increased from 300 thousand rubles to 1 million from the beginning of 2024 to now.
In other regions, such payments are slightly smaller, starting from 500-600 thousand rubles from regional authorities plus 200 thousand from the federal budget.
As we see, it is increasingly difficult to attract those Russians who are still alive to commit murders in another country. In addition, Russian authorities may be banking on the fact that some may not get paid, payments can be delayed, and if they die, there will be no long-term care for the serviceman.
Obviously, an ordinary Russian will never see that kind of money in his life at work. If we draw a parallel between the minimum wages in Russia and the West, Russian serviceman receives an amount equivalent to £50-100,000 in England just for signing up to the war.

I read it more as retroactive justification rather than how it actually went down at the time.
