The Russian Ministry of Defence claims that overnight Geran-4 jet-drone strikes on Odesa Oblast targeted a Project 205P Tarantul Patrol Boat of the Ukrainian Navy at Odesa Port, a berthing terminal at Izmail Port, as well as hangars and warehouses allegedly storing western-supplied military equipment and drone-boats.

Russian Geran-4 jet-drones impacted a warehouse reportedly storing drones in the town of Dmytrivka, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, and a (claimed) Ukrainian temporary deployment point in Dobropillya, Donetsk Oblast.

The strike on Dobropillya was filmed up-close by a Russian FPV drone.

🇺🇦 Ukraine's population has dropped 45% since independence — from 52 million to around 29 million living on Kyiv-controlled territory, - RFE/RL

Nearly 7 million are refugees abroad, and the number wanting to return has fallen below 50% for the first time.

The country loses an estimated 100,000-150,000 people monthly to long-term emigration — far more than battlefield casualties.

Birth rates have hit a record low of 0.9 children per woman, with deaths nearly three times higher than births.

Demographer: There will never be 52 million of us again. We need to plan around 30 million.
