Schokinoazot chemical plant has halted operations after drones attack overnight
 
Ukraine launches the “Test in Ukraine” program — foreign manufacturers will be allowed to test the latest weapons directly on the battlefield against the Russian Federation, — Reuters
According to the program, companies will be able to:
send equipment for combat testing,
conduct distance learning, receive feedback from the Armed Forces of Ukraine from the front lines.
Ukraine's priorities:
Air defense systems and drone interception systems.
Systems with AI and combating cruise missiles.
Naval drones, electronic warfare and “smart” artillery.
 
Ukrainian engineers are revolutionizing military robotics—at 1/10th the cost of Western systems. Tencore robotics firm just raised $3.7M from US investors at a $40M valuation. Ukraine is becoming THE defense tech valley.
Ukraine's 34-year-old minister of digital transformation, says the MITS-Tencore deal is HUGE, "as it marks the first time a U.S. venture fund has directly invested in a Ukrainian legal entity."
 
U.S. European Command and NATO Allied Forces Commander in Europe, General Alexus Grynkewich: “My directive is clear — to ensure that the Ukrainians receive everything they need to defend themselves. Obviously, this includes offensive weapons as well, so many more steps will be taken. We will act as quickly as possible. “I’m not going to reveal to the Russians — or anyone else — how much weaponry we’ll be delivering to Ukraine or when we’ll do it. But I can tell you that preparations are already underway.”
 

Zelenskyy says Ukraine sent Russia offer of new peace talks​

Ukraine has proposed to hold a new round of peace talks with Russia next week after negotiations stalled last month.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed on Saturday that Defence Council secretary Rustem Umerov made the offer of a meeting with Russian negotiators for next week.
 
Russias economy is flagging and some in Russia are questioning the kremlins all is well out look.
Reportedly 24% inflation and central bank interest rates at 20%.
Their war economy bubble has popped.

Throw on top of this trumps threat to begin imposing the second tier 100% tariffs on any nation who trades with Russia (oil!!!) and it’s going to be hard on them.

I won’t even go into what those 2 tier tariffs look like or how they work.
But their impact world wide on Russian hydrocarbon exports could break Russias economic back.
And US LNG exports are cheaper on the world market and continue to climb.

Its as a practical matter more damaging to Russias ability to prosecute the war than a sustained conventional air campaign by combined NATO Air forces.

Where did this ludicrous idea come from (except from bankers) that you would engage in a war via proxy or directly and do little to nothing economically to hinder their ability to prosecute a war.

When you read editorials we can’t do this because will be bad for that. That only tells you one thing that person is arguing for people who profit from the war on both sides. That not waging war that profiteering
