The upcoming Peace Summit threatens the Russian narrative of a divided world over the support of Ukraine, said Ukraine's top diplomat. A Russian strike ravages Kharkiv Oblast, causing fatality, injuries, and school demolition. Ukraine forces secure the majority of Vovchansk as Russia reinforces blockade by moving forces from other fronts.

Experts suggest that the Kremlin expects newly-appointed Defense Minister Andrei Belousov to enhance the country's defense industry to bolster weapon production for the protracted war in Ukraine and possibly for future confrontation with NATO.

Ukraine has only 50% of money needed to fully contract the growing domestic capacities for weapons production. Long-range drone strikes against Russia target railways.

Besides, Ukraine's PM Denys Shmyhal said Ukraine now allocates $392 million more to purchase 300,000 drones.

Besides, Ukraine's Commander-in-Chief Syrskyi warned of an escalating situation on the frontlines and Canada became the 2nd country to commit to Ukraine's weapons production.

Russian troops managed to occupy two more villages west of Avdiivka, while Ukraine awaits for the arrival of much needed weapons, including long-range air defense and air-to-air missile to counter the Russian threat of distantly dropped glide bombs.
