The Cabinet recently launched an experimental program to recruit volunteers for drone defense operations. The initiative aims to strengthen countermeasures against Iranian-made Shahed drones that Russia launches nightly against Ukrainian targets.

Ukrainian officials say three people were killed and 13 were wounded when Russia attacked the country with waves of drones and missiles.

Russia is advancing around Kostyantynivka and in the Sumy region with small, fast-moving units as both sides try a new tactic of using motorcycles and civilian cars to quickly cross open terrain.

Ukraine's president says a new prisoner exchange with Russia is ongoing and will take days, as both sides continue launching hundreds of attack drones.

Apart from drones, 20 missiles of various types were fired at different parts of Ukraine, according to the air force, which said the barrage targeted mainly central and western areas of Ukraine.

TRUMP: THEY GAVE PUTIN A REASON TO BOMB THE HELL OUT OF THEM’: As is President Donald Trump’s habit, when Ukraine takes action to strike back at Russia, Trump finds a way to accuse Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky of undermining peace efforts by provoking the Russians.

At least 10 Ukrainian drones were shot down on their approach to Moscow overnight into Sunday morning, according to the city's mayor.

The Ukrainian military says its new weapon system, which launches antiaircraft missiles from a remote-controlled speedboat, has brought down two Russian jet fighters.
