This statement came on the eve of extreme cold weather in #Ukraine, with temperatures expected to reach -30°C this weekend. Meanwhile, the energy crisis has been going on for more than two weeks, and some #Kyiv residents have been without heating for even longer.

#Russia is using #Starlink to fly #drones deep into #Ukraine, thereby evading electronic warfare.

Poland’s FM recently criticised Musk, the creator of Starlink, for profiting off of war crimes, urging him to cut Russia off of Starlink. In response, Musk called him an “imbecile”.

Russia Uses Starlink to Extend Drone Strikes Deep Into Ukraine

Experts warn that Russia’s reliance on Starlink-equipped drones is designed to overcome Ukrainian electronic warfare and exploit gaps in air defenses.

There has been a “qualitative change” in talks with #Russia, Ukraine’s FM reports. Russia has stopped the "historical" speeches and had more focused talks.

This follows reports from the U.S. that despite hardline public statements, #Russia is more flexible behind closed doors.

Ukraine sees shift in Russia's peace talks delegation as 'pseudo-historical lectures' end, foreign minister says

"These are different people... the conversations were very focused," Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said.
