Special Operation Citadel in Crimea
The Armed Forces of Ukraine conducted an emergency special operation Citadel near the coast of Crimea, as a result of which a Russian radar station was blown up and important equipment was captured that increases the range and operating radius of the Iranian-made Mohajer-6 drone.
According to the Ukrainian Armed Forces' Special Operations Forces, the invaders used UAVs for reconnaissance and attacks by Shahed drones on critical infrastructure facilities in the southern regions of Ukraine.
The Neva-B surface detection radar station operated on this platform. With its help, the occupiers controlled the situation in the northwestern part of the Black Sea, tracking motor boats and ships.
DRG in Avdeevka, Donetsk region
Single shootings in Avdeevka occur due to hits by Russian sabotage and reconnaissance groups. The head of the GVA, Vitaly Barabash, explained that there are no such street fights there. There are only a few DRGs that are trying to get through, but the Ukrainian Armed Forces do not give such a chance.
The most important thing is that the defense line holds, despite very difficult conditions, because the enemy is pressing with large forces, the head of the MBA noted. He believes that the residents of Avdeevka may think about street fighting during the liquidation of the DRG.
Forces of unmanned systems in the Ukrainian Armed Forces
President Vladimir Zelensky ordered the creation of a separate branch in the Armed Forces of Ukraine — Unmanned systems forces.
According to the presidential decree, the list of tasks is now clear: special staff positions for working with drones, units, effective training, systematization of experience, constant scaling of production, attracting the best ideas and specialists to this field.
Integration of Ukrainians in Moldova
Specialists will work in the mayor's offices of 14 settlements in Moldova for the further social integration of Ukrainian refugees.

Aid to Ukraine from the USA
US President Joe Biden said that the bill related to the provision of military aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan is falling apart under political pressure from Donald Trump.
— All indications are that this bill will not even make it to the Senate floor. Why? For a simple reason: Donald Trump. Because Donald Trump thinks it's bad for him politically, — says the head of the White House.
Joe Biden has requested $61.4 billion in additional funding for military support to Ukraine and replenishment of US arsenals.
