🇫🇷🇺🇦 France to Produce Military Drones in Ukraine

A major French auto and defense company will set up drone production lines in Ukraine for both Ukrainian and French forces, with frontline feedback from Ukrainian troops.

🇺🇦 Despite over 3 years of full-scale war, Ukrainian resilience holds strong. According to a new KIIS survey, 60% of Ukrainians are ready to endure the war "as long as needed", with another 6% prepared for at least a year. Only 20% see their endurance limited to months.

Russian Mi-8 helicopter destroyed, Mi-35 damaged in Ukrainian drone attack on Bryansk airport overnight, per ASTRA. Secondary explosions followed the strike, damaging admin buildings and rescue services.

Russia claims its overnight mass attack was a response to Ukraine’s “terror acts,” hitting strategic planes & military sites—legitimate targets. “Ukraine strikes military targets, like planes used to bomb our kids, while Russia hits civilians, homes, and key infra,” FM Sybiha said.

Ukrainian national track team in Lutsk for the national championship was hit by Russian shelling overnight, per media. 6 missiles and 15 Shahed drones struck residential areas and the city center, targeting the "Motor" hotel where the team stayed.

Walmart Cuts Some Florida Jobs After Immigration Rulings By Daniela Sirtori and Jaewon Kang 06/03/2025 19:12:22 [BNI (Bloomberg) -- Walmart Inc. is terminating some jobs in Florida following recent Supreme Court rulings about legal residency of migrants, the latest sign that such orders are hitting US workplaces. The company has told some employees in at least two stores in the state that they would lose jobs if they don't get new work authorizations, said people familiar with the matter. The terminations are connected to I-9 forms that US employers use to check the identity and employment authorization of staff, the people said. The exact number of job cuts couldn't be learned. A company spokeswoman declined to comment.

GDP hit from immigration policy is underway.

a graph of chances in tariff rates over time

Good morning. It is now 12:01 AM, which means tariffs on nearly all steel & aluminum have been raised to 50%. That includes an increase in the tariffs on steel & aluminum content in derivatives, plus a new tariff on derivatives' non-metal content based on country-level tariffs

Thus began "The Web."

Sources in the Security Service of Ukraine published footage of preparations for a special operation targeting Russia’s strategic aviation.

The video shows one of the trucks, loaded with modular houses, setting off on a journey - a very interesting and eventful one.

‼️ For the first time in three years, the U.S. Defense Secretary will skip the Ukraine Defense Contact Group meeting ("Ramstein"), AP reports.

Pete Hegseth will arrive in Brussels only after the session ends and will not participate even via video.

Investigative project “Schemes” published satellite images of Belaya air base showing damage to at least seven bombers—3 Tu-95 and 4 Tu-22—plus fire aftermath. Earlier analysis confirmed destruction of 11 bombers at Belaya and Olenya bases. The SBU claims Operation “Pavutyna” hit 41 aircraft.

Even higher-quality satellite images published by Dnipro OSINT of Belaya airbase shows the destruction of 4 Tu-95 and 4 Tu-22M3 bombers.

🤡🤡🤡🤡 Macron, all words and no action.

🇺🇦 The SBU has released rare footage showing the early stages of Operation “Spiderweb,” a special operation targeting Russia’s strategic aviation.

The video captures one of the trucks loaded with modular structures setting off—marking the beginning of the mission.

🇺🇦🇺🇸 Yermak: During a meeting with the US Special Representative Steve Witkoff, we discussed the track of the negotiations between the Ukrainian and Russian delegations in Istanbul. The Russian position is unconstructive.

🇺🇦🇺🇸 Zelensky: "We are negotiating with the US on defense cooperation, meetings are planned in the US in the near future.

We are not talking about aid, but about purchasing weapons, this will be an official agreement, we want to buy weapons."

🫡 Zelenskyy appoints new commanders of Air Assault Forces and Unmanned Systems Forces

🇵🇱 Newly elected Polish President Nawrocki responded to President Zelensky's congratulations, expressing hope to continue partnership with Ukraine.

"I hope we’ll keep working together for our common good, resolving the past and building a secure future," Nawrocki stated.

This timeline: a Russian pseudo-philosopher is pleading for help from supporters of the U.S. president because of Ukrainian strikes on Russia.

/4. Location where SBU planted underwater explosive device on one of the pillars of the Crimean bridge. (45.3092354, 36.5047376)

/3. The bridge is now in a critical condition, according to preliminary assessments.

SBU chief Lieutenant General Vasyl Maliuk personally oversaw and coordinated the operation. He stated that the bridge remains a legitimate military target due to its use by Russian forces for logistical support.

/2. The operation, which had been in planning for several months, involved placing explosives on the underwater supports of the bridge. At 4:44 a.m., the first device was detonated. The blast caused significant structural damage to the base of the bridge, using the equivalent of 1,100 kg of TNT.

🌉/1. Ukraine’s Security Service Hits Crimean Bridge in Underwater Sabotage Operation

The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) has carried out a new special operation targeting the Crimean Bridge—its third successful strike on the structure, this time using underwater explosives.

Sadly, civilians have been murdered by Russia in Kharkiv region this morning.

Another gratuitous strike on a small village near the Oskil river. Two people were killed in MLRS shelling of Chystovodivka, with three more injured.
Officials say those numbers may increase.

Russians fired MLRS missiles with cluster ammunition warheads into the city center of Sumy. The destruction killed 3 civilians and wounded more than 20.

📌

In sum, this was a highly successful operation for Ukraine. While it may not bring a quick reduction in the aerial threat to Ukrainian cities, it degraded a critical segment of Russia’s force projection. At the end it might influence a potential agreement to restrict long-range strikes in the future
