Ukraine's defense ministry said it continues to hit Russia's industries, "weakening the offensive potential of the aggressor state."

Ukraine has used the unmanned naval drones to target Russian shipping and infrastructure in the Black Sea. The Security Service of Ukraine, known by its Ukrainian acronym SBU, has credited strikes by the unmanned vessel known as the “ Sea Baby” with forcing a strategic shift in Russia’s naval operations.

The attack on the Bryansk facility came hours before Russian attacks left six people dead in Ukraine, officials said.

Zelensky urged the European Union, the United States and the Group of Seven industrialized nations to heap more pressure on Russia and force it to the negotiating table. Pressure can be applied on Moscow “only through sanctions, long-range (missile) capabilities, and co-ordinated diplomacy among all our partners,” he said.

The Army is overhauling how it fights in combat based on lessons from Russia's invasion of Ukraine, where drones have become the dominant weapon on the battlefield.

Bell has confirmed new discussions with Ukrainian government agencies over a potential Foreign Military Sale of AH-1Z and UH-1Y attack and utility helicopters.

As temperatures drop in Ukraine, Russia has stepped up drone attacks on power facilities supplying millions of homes across the country.

Trump must now use economic and military leverage to stop the bloodshed in Ukraine — just as he did this month in the Middle East.
