The Ministry of Defense approved the UNEX amphibious UGV for combat operations.

🇺🇦 The Ministry of Defense has approved the UNEX UGV remotely controlled self-propelled armored platform for operation.

The platform easily moves on water, floodplains, swamps, quagmires, sand, difficult surfaces and ice. Due to the weight distribution between the axles and wide tires, it does not activate mines designed to destroy automobiles and armored vehicles. It is resistant to electronic warfare, has a reliable radio control system, programmable autopilot, and powerful batteries. Source

A normal day in Russia's army.

Zelenskyy visited the site of the Russian missile strike in Kryvyi Rih that killed 19 people, including 9 children.

Kryvyi Rih. An ordinary urban neighborhood. Surrounded by residential buildings, nothing but civilian infrastructure.

On April 4, a Russian ballistic missile struck right next to homes and a children's playground—right in the middle of the street—claiming the lives of 19 people, 9 of them children.

I honored the memory of the victims. We have no right to forget the crimes Russia has committed against Ukrainians. And the whole world must remember, too: to Russia, human life means nothing.

Eternal memory to all those whose lives were taken by Russian terror.

Russians are now assaulting in GAZ-69 vehicles, a Soviet relic made from 1953 to 1973.

  • Not a dumb question at all. When AA guns miss, the bullets eventually fall back down, often tumbling, which slows them down but doesn’t make them harmless. Even tumbling rounds can injure or kill. Collateral damage does happen but often goes unreported due to censorship or lack of clear attribution.

    Chinese POW explains how his life was saved by a Ukrainian soldier after Russians used chemical weapons.

    The First Two Captured Chinese Citizens

    Today, investigators from the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) spoke with the first two Chinese nationals captured while fighting in Ukraine. We are currently verifying all facts regarding the presence of these and other Chinese citizens within the ranks of the Russian occupying army. Ukrainian intelligence is also actively working on this matter.

    As of now, we have confirmed data on over 150 Chinese citizens who have been recruited by Russia to fight in the war against Ukraine. We know the real number is higher. Ukraine views Russia’s open involvement of Chinese citizens in combat on Ukrainian territory as a deliberate step toward expanding the war.

    This is yet more proof that Moscow is simply trying to prolong the fighting. Russia doesn’t care who dies in this senseless war—it only cares that the war continues.

    What we all need—all

  • They also made a video:

  • The second stage venting excess fuel while spinning.

  • The video shows the jet on fire after it was hit.

  • Special Operations Forces

  • It gets quite a jolt in the video, so maybe it's just the gyros and weight of the drone. These "Queens" are larger than normal FPV drones.

  • They haven't shared any photos of the drone in this configuration yet. I assume it carries a DIY directional fragmentary warhead underneath.

  • It's a good thing too, since it minimizes harm if they are shot down or suppressed by EW, which I assume was the case here.

  • We, soldiers of the Russian army, came to Ukrainian soil with weapons in hand.

    But the 4th Battalion of the Freedom Forces pressed us hard on the way. To stay alive, we surrendered.

    I want to send my regards to the 4th Battalion and say thank you for letting us live.

    I want to address Russian soldiers: Surrender at the first opportunity; there is no reason to die. They will treat you well here. Most importantly, you will keep your life.

    Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the heroes!

  • Likely the latter. The FPV drones are bigger and far more robust because of their carbon fiber frames.
