🇺🇦🚀 During the meetings in the Middle East, the supply of PAC-3 interceptor missiles to Ukraine was discussed. Ukraine is negotiating with two countries on this issue, - Zelensky

❗️Zelensky on the results of his visit to the Middle East:

📍Saudi Arabia: a document was signed between the ministries of defense — a path to contracts, technological cooperation, investments and exchange of experience in protection against ballistics and drones.
📍UAE: agreements on cooperation in the field of security and defense.
📍Qatar: defense partnership for at least 10 years — joint projects, co-production and technologies.
📍Jordan: interaction in the field of security was discussed.

Представитель МИД Ирана Эсмаил Багаи заявил, что прямых переговоров с США до настоящего момента не проводилось, сообщает Nour news.

«То, что обсуждалось, — это сообщения через посредников о якобы желании США вести переговоры», — отметил он.
Багаи подчеркнул, что позиция Ирана остаётся ясной и неизменной, в отличие от США, где «не все воспринимают заявления о дипломатии всерьёз». 

«С самого начала позиция Ирана была ясной, и мы хорошо понимаем, каковы рамки наших требований. Переданные нам предложения (15 пунктов) носили чрезмерный и нереалистичный характер. Встречи, которые проводит Пакистан, — это рамки, которые они сами установили, и мы в них не участвовали. Хорошо, что страны региона обеспокоены завершением войны, но они должны помнить, какая сторона её начала», — заявил представитель МИД.

🇺🇦 According to Zelensky, PAC-3, which are designed to shoot down ballistic missiles, continue to be in short supply worldwide, as their production does not exceed 60 units per month, and they are currently being sent to the Middle East.

At the same time, Kyiv continues to work to ensure that Ukraine is provided with anti-ballistic capabilities and is negotiating with two countries on this issue.

❗️ Ukraine is preparing new defense agreements with Middle Eastern countries and is ready to send its specialists there, Zelensky confirmed.

❗️🧐 After the global energy crisis, Ukraine received signals from some partners to reduce our retaliatory strikes on the Russian oil sector, - Zelensky

"I will emphasize once again: if Russia is ready not to strike at Ukrainian energy, we will not respond with their energy. We were ready for any ceasefires...Let them offer us at any time, we are ready to resolve this issue," - said the head of state.

🇺🇦🇩🇪 If every housewife in Ukraine can produce drones, then every housewife can be the CEO of Rheinmetall, — Zelensky

The President responded to the statement of the company's director about "housewives with 3D printers."

Zelensky stressed that Ukraine demonstrates the effectiveness of its technologies every day — on the front, in the sky and at sea.

According to him, we need to compete not with statements, but with results, and the Ukrainian defense-industrial complex is already taking its place in the world.

❗️An Israeli soldier was killed and an officer from the 401st Armored Brigade was seriously wounded in southern Lebanon

They were likely killed in the successful raid in Maroun al-Raa

Phenomenal if daily casualties are an occurrence, a trend that will only intensify when the front line stabilizes

✍ And that's another tank crew poinked, despite all armor and trophy protection

Yet some clowns still claim Hezbullah didn't damage or destroy a single tank

🇺🇸🇮🇷☢️ Trump is considering a risky military mission to physically seize nearly 1,000 pounds of enriched uranium from Iran. Goal is to stop Iran from building nukes, - WSJ

The operation would be complex, dangerous, and not quick. It could put U.S. troops inside Iran for days, with risk of retaliation and a longer war.

Zelensky says partners signaled Ukraine to reduce strikes on Russia’s energy sector after the global energy crisis, adding Kyiv is ready to halt attacks if Moscow stops targeting Ukrainian energy infrastructure.

🇨🇺🇺🇸 Trump on Cuba:

Cuba is going to be next. Cuba is a mess. It’s a failing country.

They’re going to be next within a short period of time — it’s going to fail. And we will be there to help it out.
