Ukrainian drones continue to carry out daily attacks on the territory of the so-called Russian Federation. Last night, the city of Bataysk in Russia's Rostov region was targeted. According to preliminary information, one of the targets may have been a power substation, though official confirmation is lacking.
The increase in attacks has sparked discussions among Russian residents on the effectiveness of their air defenses and the unity of their country. Some Russians call for strikes on infrastructure across the nation, while Sochi residents highlight the importance of considering all regions, not just the Kremlin.
Activists in Ukraine are urging support for the Armed Forces by launching new fundraising campaigns to supply modern equipment, especially drones, to frontline soldiers. The initiative aims to strengthen units operating in the most challenging areas of the front line, encouraging donors by offering prizes.
The political background remains tense. Former US President Donald Trump has suggested freezing the conflict along current front lines and starting negotiations. However, Russia has again rejected such proposals, insisting on its maximalist demands. The planned meeting between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin in Budapest is now in question after preparatory negotiations between Rubio and Lavrov were postponed.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian authorities emphasize the importance of intensifying strikes against Russia's energy infrastructure to impact the Russian economy and call for ongoing supply of drones to enhance the army's combat capabilities, as drones are now a key component in modern warfare on the front line.
Thanks to ongoing donations, Ukrainian troops receive new FPV drones daily, helping make the army more effective in combat and reducing casualties. The military expresses gratitude to everyone participating in fundraising and stresses the need for continued support to achieve victory.
