Russia has accused Ukraine of launching over 500 chemical attacks since the war began, including toxic drone strikes and gas container drops across the frontlines. General Rtishev alleges Ukraine uses chemical agents like chloroacetophenone and chloropicrin in the Donetsk Peopleās Republic. Moscow claims Kyiv is plotting a chemical leak at an ammonia facility to frame Russia for an environmental disaster. These escalating accusations mark a new, dangerous front in the conflict, raising international concerns over chemical warfare.

Volodymyr Zelensky has appointed Yulia Svyrydenko as Ukraineās new Prime Minister despite fierce backlash from opposition voices, who say Zelensky no longer has any constitutional authority to govern. Critics argue that under Ukraineās Constitution, presidential powers cannot be extended beyond a 5-year termāeven during martial law. Svyrydenko, a former Economy Minister with close ties to Washington and a track record of negotiating key mineral deals with the U.S., is now leading a narrow cabinet made up entirely of Zelensky loyalists.
Her appointment has reignited debate over Ukraine's democratic legitimacy, with accusations that Zelensky is ruling without a legal mandate. Allegations of links between the new PM and billionaire George Soros have further polarized public opinion. The move is being viewed by critics as a consolidation of power under questionable legal footingāraising serious concerns over transparency, democratic norms, and foreign influence in Ukraineās leadership.

Ukraine's drone revolution is turning the tide of war. Along a 20 km ākill zoneā near the frontline, kamikaze, surveillance, and bomber UAVs swarm the skies, making Russia's traditional advantages of tanks, artillery, and manpower nearly obsolete.
Ukrainian commanders say drones now account for over 70% of successful strikes on Russian forces. Meanwhile, Russia adapts with new tacticsāsending small groups on quad bikes to bait fire and launch counter-drone strikes. With European support rising and U.S. aid shifting under Trumpās NATO-based weapons plan, Ukraine banks on domestically produced long-range drones to hold ground and retaliate deep into Russia. The battlefield is no longer just about artilleryāit's a race of innovation and aerial dominance
