⚡️Update: DTEK power plant 'seriously damaged' by Russian attack.

According to DTEK, Ukraine's largest private energy company, DTEK, Russia has attacked its thermal power plants over 210 times since the start of the full-scale invasion.

If you have a thousand dollars, you should have 2 drones at the same time, man.

"Everyone said I was daft to drive a BMP through a swamp, but I drove in all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp." – the russians.

More than 3 years after the full-scale invasion, the time for preparation is running out. We must have anti-drone defence after 2 months, not after 2 years. Ukraine has the expertise, technology, production, and experience in this. We should procure directly from the best Ukrainian manufacturers.

The rifle looks better than the typical AK-74 issued to most Russian soldiers, it has rails and a top handle. What is it?

Congratulations on being a guest! This is one of the only podcasts I regularly listen to, as I was catching up with episodes this weekend I heard Francis say Marika Mikiashvili in the introduction so I knew it would be a good episode.

It should just be Ukrainian style air defence network with Ukrainian produced interceptor drones.

Роль інновацій як основи стратегії стійкого опору у позбавленні Росії можливості нав’язувати свої умови через війну На DSEI-2025 у Лондоні Україна представила оборонні інновації. Валерій Залужний пояснює, як дрони, РЕБ і ШІ змінюють війну та чому позиційний глухий кут нагадує Першу світову.

Да, ако Орбан и Фико ще внасят руски газ, трябва да им вдигнем таксите на милиарди евро, и да ги изпратим на Украйна, за да произвеждат въоръжение.

So much for Baltic air policing by Spain and Hungary. Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania need their own combined air force with 3 squadrons of Eurofighters so that if MiG-31 enter their airspace even for a second they get Meteors launched towards them.

If Ukrainians displaced by the war and living in EU countries return and reintegrate into Ukrainian society, it would improve the Ukrainian economy. EU countries should fund the relocation and reintegration cost to support them and to encourage Ukrainian companies to open new job positions for them.

It is ironic that it is a Hungarian satellite given that how much Hungary's government likes Russia and Russian oil and gas.

Poland donated €5 billion, which is much less than the Ukrainian contribution given in the post. It is also not one or the other. If Ukrainians work in Ukraine, and European countries support Ukraine at the same time, it would be best for the Ukrainian war effort.

It looks like some European Union countries are not as democratic as they all claim to be, as calling a spade a spade is a criminal offence. Poland's president is a pachan. Ukrainian national symbols must be allowed in all of Europe.

Rheinmetall to Build Europe’s Biggest Powder Facility—Here’s What It Means for Ukraine Rheinmetall is set to collaborate with Bulgaria on a €1 billion investment for Europe's largest gunpowder plant and a 155mm shell production facility.

Ukrainians working in foreign countries instead of in Ukraine is depleting the Ukrainian economy of labour and tax income needed for the war economy in this full-scale industrial warfare. These €24 billion in 3 years could have funded the Ukrainian defence industry instead.

These divers would try to sabotage European ships some day, good riddance. They were elite Russians, and now they became good Russians, which is better.

These are the divers that would attempt to sabotage European ships in a war with Russia, good riddance.

Happy 29th birthday, Marika! I wish you good health!

I donated to the Armed Forces of Ukraine on United24 because it defends Europe from our biggest threat. When we win the war with Russia, the pro-Russian dictatorships such as the Georgian and Serbian will fall like dominoes.

The Ukrainian Flamingo missile, how it is superior to the Tomahawk, its potential targets in Russia, and why Western cruise missile development is misguided were discussed by Oleh Katkov.

The Flamingo missile has a 1,150 kg warhead and a 3,000 km range. It is one fifth of the price of a Tomahawk.

If these young adult Ukrainian men are so patriotic, it is strange that they are doing this demonstration in Poland instead of Ukraine, which has a major issue with lack of volunteers in the army.

If Ukraine lifts border control restrictions for men under 22 years old, they will just migrate to avoid getting mobilised in a few years. This is a populist and puzzling decision for a country in a full scale war with 20% of its territory occupied by Russia. EU should help them return their people.

Even if he recognises the annexation, most countries in the European Union will not. Even if they do, I hope European citizens overthrow any governments that recognise Russian annexation of European territory. I know I will be out on the streets if that happens.

I hope EU CSDP organises an exercise with 35,000 troops as a response to the Russian Zapad-2025.

South Korea should donate 2000 155 mm artillery shells to Ukraine for every confirmed destruction of North Korean military equipment because it would have otherwise been at their border pointed at them.
