With or without US support, 'we cannot let Russia win,' says Ursula von der Leyen
The European Union cannot afford to let Russia win the war in Ukraine regardless of what happens in the United States after the presidential elections, Ursula von der Leyen has said.
Russian forces carried out an overnight drone attack on Ukraine's Kharkiv and Dnipro regions, causing injuries to at least six individuals and causing damage to critical infrastructure, as well as commercial and residential buildings, according to regional officials on Saturday. The Ukrainian Air Force reported that Russian forces deployed 13 Shahed drones targeting these regions in the northeast and centre of the country. The air defence units successfully intercepted and downed all the drones, as confirmed by the air force commander. However, debris from the downed drones struck civilian targets in Kharkiv, resulting in injuries to four people and igniting a fire in an office building, as stated by the regional governor.

Ukraine has been rationing ammunition and bullets; meanwhile the Russian army has been using 'human wave' tactics by sending poorly trained recruits to the frontline in a bid to force Ukraine use up all of its ammunition.
