🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦 Russia Deploys New AI-Equipped Kamikaze Drone in Sumy Sector, According to Ukrainian Sources

According to Ukraine’s military intelligence (GUR), Russia has developed and deployed a new strike drone powered by artificial intelligence, designated V2U. The drone reportedly has the ability to autonomously search for and select targets without human input.

Ukrainian sources claim the V2U is already being used on the Sumy front, where Russian forces continue to advance.

The drone is said to be equipped with a Chinese Leetop A203 mini-computer, based on the NVIDIA Jetson Orin AI platform. Most of the other internal components are also reportedly sourced from China.

Ukrainian reports further allege that the drone uses onboard visual data comparison—matching live footage to preloaded imagery of terrain—and can also be manually controlled in FPV mode via a SIM card from a Ukrainian mobile network.

🇪🇺🇺🇸🇨🇳 Western Carmakers Panic as China Tightens Rare Earth Magnet Exports

Several European auto parts plants have already shut down, with more production stops expected soon, according to the regional auto supplier association CLEPA.

“The entire automotive industry is in full panic mode. They’re willing to pay any price,” said Frank Eckard, CEO of a German magnet manufacturer, who says he’s been bombarded with calls from “frustrated” clients in recent weeks.

The Chinese government has imposed strict export controls on rare-earth magnets, which are essential for building modern vehicles. Without them, entire assembly lines may grind to a halt.

On Friday, Donald Trump stated that Xi Jinping had agreed to resume shipments of rare earths and magnets to the U.S. Meanwhile, a second round of U.S.-China trade talks opened today in London.

Western carmakers are finding themselves with virtually no alternatives, as China controls up to 70% of global rare earth extraction, 85% of the refining capacity, and nearly 90% of alloy and magnet production.

🇺🇸🇺🇦 According to Foreign Policy, citing sources in the White House, one likely scenario is that President Trump will place blame on both Moscow and Kiev for failing to follow his directives — then withdraw from the diplomatic process and halt U.S. weapons deliveries to Ukraine.

However, sources say Washington is unlikely to completely abandon Kiev. The U.S. may still provide satellite intelligence — a cheap way to keep eyes on the conflict.

American lawmakers — including most Republicans — reportedly believe too much has been invested to allow a total Ukrainian collapse. Satellite intel is described as Ukraine’s “eyes and ears,” but more importantly, a way for Washington to keep its finger on the pulse without deeper involvement.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Medinsky: Ukraine Refuses to Accept Bodies of Dead Soldiers Because It Can’t Admit the Losses

Vladimir Medinsky told RT that Ukraine is refusing to accept the bodies of its fallen soldiers.

He said the reason is twofold: Kiev is unwilling to publicly acknowledge the scale of its military losses — and the money allocated for compensations to families has already been spent.

🇮🇱🇺🇸🇮🇷 During the phone call with U.S. President Trump, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said Israel is now willing to accept 'limited enrichment levels' (3.67%) on Iranian soil temporarily, instead of zero enrichment, and Israel also no longer insists on a 'full dismantlement' of Iran's nuclear program.
