Ukraine has upped its painful strike campaign on Russian oil and gas infrastructure since the start of the year.

Ukrainian drones struck oil plants in Moscow and Russia's southern Krasnodar Krai region overnight a day after a massive airborne attack on Ukraine.

Kaja Kallas, E.U.'s chief diplomat, in March said it was her wish that “Ukraine is going to join [the] European Union soon,” although she declined to give an exact timeline.

The EU has also announced sanctions on more Chinese companies citing exports that support Russia's war machine.

What is Russia using the new drone against, and why is it invisible to electronic warfare (EW) systems? Ukrainian soldiers have spotted a new Russian weapon on the line of contact — a cheap jet-powered drone.

Ukraine has new tech and momentum that's letting it make the kind of progress it hasn't seen in years.

Russia's military recruitment fell 20 percent in the first quarter of 2026 against a year earlier — and the incentives meant to reverse it are extraordinary, with signing bonuses worth several years of an average Russian salary.
