Ukrainian “Servant of the People” MP Oleksandr Kunitsky went to Europe for meetings and allegedly failed to return, according to sources from Bihus.info. The Verkhovna Rada records show he was a no-show at all parliamentary votes throughout October.

Kunitsky is no stranger to controversy. In October 2023 he was caught helping a now fugitive MP Artem Dmytruk to assault in the Kyiv center central Kyiv in October 2023. A follow-up video featured the victim of the assault accusing both MPs of extortion and fraud, arguing they started a brawl.

“I was standing on the street, and they started filming, shoving, and provoking me. They said awful things about my job. I took the phone from one of them but immediately gave it back. Then they both started hitting me—one pushed me down, and Dmytruk began beating me, calling me a scammer,” the victim stated on video.

The story drew a massive public outrcry making Prosecutor General Andriy Kostin open a criminal investigation into both Kunitsky and Dmytruk for their involvement in the brawl.

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.
