💙💛 She learned #Ukrainian under occupation: 9-year-old #Solomiya met her mother for the first time in three years

For more than three years, little #Solomiya lived under occupation with her grandmother. She last saw her mother back in January 2022. During all this time, her grandmother hid her granddaughter from the occupiers, even obtained a #Russian passport, but at home taught the girl the #Ukrainian language, reports #The_Washington_Post.

#US Won't Give #Ukraine Patriots for Free, But May Sell Them — #The_Washington_Post

The main additional military aid #Ukraine has requested from the #Trump administration is more #Patriot missiles and launchers . Citing its sources in #Ukraine and the #US, the publication writes:

📌The #United_States needs to maintain a certain number of systems for its own defence in case of an attack from #Iran or another adversary.

"I'm glad I didn't hold my breath!"

#European countries plan to send a military team to #Ukraine in the coming weeks to determine how many troops would be needed for the "reassurance force" and where they should be stationed, #The_Washington_Post reports.

And they will confer with #Ukraine on beefing up its army to hold a future front line.

Sanctions are working: #Russian strike drones are more likely to go off course after replacing servo motors with #Chinese ones - #The_Washington_Post.

Sources for the publication note that technical issues with #Iranian-made #Shahed_136 UAVs assembled in #Russia, which #Russians call "#Geran_2," have been observed this year.

During sharp turns, they lose control; some crash, while others stabilize but become easy targets for #Ukrainian air defence.

#Russia might be renovating a #Soviet-era laboratory designed to research and handle deadly pathogens, experts say - #The_Washington_Post

While #Russia accused #Ukraine numerous times of building "#biolabs," they have been doing it themselves.

Satellite imagery captured signs that, when combined, indicate a high-containment biological facility being restored at #Sergiev_Posad_6: numerous rooftop air handling units, layouts consistent with partitioned labs, underground infrastructure, etc.
