Astra reported that Chekhov Hydrostalkonstruktsiya plant (ZAT Hydrostalkonstruktsiya) is located 800 meters from the fire site. That enterprise manufactures hydromechanical equipment, steel structures, and components for energy and water management facilities.

Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin claimed that Russian air defense forces downed at least 81 drones flying toward the Russian capital.

The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.

Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.

For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
