In the early hours of September 10, Russian forces launched a wave of drone attacks targeting the Cherkasy region in central Ukraine. The barrage caused injuries and significant damage to infrastructure, local authorities have reported.
According to Cherkasy governor Ihor Taburets, Ukrainian air defences intercepted 14 drones, though several managed to hit their targets. In the regional capital, Cherkasy, two civilians were injured. Both have since received medical treatment. A number of buildings, including private businesses, sustained damage, and dry grass caught fire as a result of the strikes.
Further damage was reported in Uman, where a drone hit an infrastructure facility. Meanwhile, debris from the downed drones caused a fire in a forested area in the Cherkasy district. It was swiftly contained by emergency services.
The emergency teams were assessing the damage, while law enforcement agencies have begun documenting the attacks as evidence of Russia’s war crime, said the governor.
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.
Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
