The former head of the Supreme Court, Vsevolod Knyazev, was detained by border guards at a checkpoint in the border region of Zakarpattia, just one kilometer from the Romanian border. Knyazev who is facing bribery charges had been released on bail in Jan.30 and was initially ordered to wear an electronic monitoring bracelet.

According to Hromadske reports,  the former judge was detained while traveling as a passenger in a car. The authorities have already notified the police and the Territorial Defense Center about the incident.

This news follows the earlier reports claiming Knyazev was detained in the village of Solotvyno, close to the Romanian border.

On May 27, the High Anti-Corruption Court extended the obligations imposed on Knyazev dropping the electronic monitoring requirement.

Five armored vehicles “Kozak” have received a new mission – thanks to the support of Metinvest, they have been upgraded to full-fledged command and staff vehicles. These upgraded vehicles are now operating on the front line.

A kamikaze drone flies directly toward an armored personnel carrier. But instead of penetrating the hull, it explodes on a steel screen. The crew survives. This is the new reality for Ukrainian forces, who have received enhanced protection thanks to the Metinvest project within “Steel Front of Rinat Akhmetov”.

To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).

In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.

Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.
