China’s fifth-generation stealth fighter jet J-20 with homegrown Shenyang WS-15 (Emei) afterburning turbofan engine.
— The development of the WS-15 began in the early 1990s, with significant milestones achieved over the years.
— The engine first ran successfully in 2006.
— In March 2022, reports indicated that the J-20 had begun trials with the WS-15, showing notable improvements in performance.
— By December 2022, the engine was in the final stages of testing, and by June 2023, a J-20 variant equipped with dual WS-15 engines reportedly completed its maiden flight, marking a significant advancement for China's military aviation capabilities.
— The WS-15 is designed to replace the interim WS-10 engine currently used in the J-20. It is anticipated to provide better thrust, fuel efficiency, and operational capabilities compared to its predecessors with a thrust target of 180 kilonewtons (40,000 pounds).

Ukraine continues to actively use Turkish-made Bayraktar TB2 UAVs in the ongoing war against Russia, GUR Chief Budanov says.
Source
— The Bayraktar TB2 UAVs were highly effective in the initial stages of the war, slowing down the Russian advance by attacking key targets in vehicle convoys and causing confusion & chaos among Russian forces.
— They were particularly useful in operations around Snake Island in the Black Sea.
— As the war progressed, Ukraine's use of the Bayraktar TB2 UAVs has shifted more towards reconnaissance and real-time coordination with artillery forces, rather than direct attacks, due to the buildup of Russian air defenses.
— Budanov stated Ukraine achieved "extraordinary results" with the Bayraktar TB2 drones, especially at the beginning of the war.
— He said Ukraine is still using the Bayraktar TB2 UAVs, particularly over the Black Sea region.
— Ukrainian Bayraktar operators praise the reliability and user-friendly nature of the Bayraktar TB2 UAV.

Turkish President Erdogan calls for urgent meeting of Islamic leaders on Israel:
It is inconceivable that the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), whose mission is to protect the cause of Jerusalem, would remain indifferent to these attacks.
It is urgent to convene at the level of leaders without wasting time and to demonstrate the decisive position of the Islamic world.
