What new weapon is Russia deploying that’s changing the Ukraine war?
All hell is breaking loose as Russia is using a new secret weapon in its war in Ukraine. The Garin 4 jet power drone is now being used, which is so much harder for Ukraine to strike down with the anti-drone interceptors. I'm gonna talk more about that in a moment, but let's recap what's taken place in the past 24 hours alone. This is a daily occurrence. In this catastrophic war, while Donald Trump yesterday was saying Russia's just going it along, Ukraine is going it along. And Trump said, I'd really like to see Zelensky just do a settlement with Putin, just make a deal, is what Donald Trump said as he was heading to the Tennessee football game where he was booed. So here's what went down in the past 24 hours.
About 173 Russian drones launched overnight. We saw multiple strikes in areas like Zaprizia, two women were killed there. In Sumi, two people were killed. In Donetsk, two people were killed. In the Dinprovost Oblast, we saw a teenage girl and a woman killed and two injured. In Kyiv, there were several who were injured. As these jet-powered drones. Featured prominently. Also in Kyiv, there was an additional five injured and two children. In Kharkiv, there were multiple missile strikes for injured. In Odessa, Russia claimed it hit a cargo vessel with military supplies near the port and a logistics hub. Meanwhile, Ukraine strikes in Russia included the following: in Krasnodor Krai, the Ilsky Oil Republic. Refinery was hit.
Fire was reported there. It seems that these were FP1 long-range drones that were used about 400 kilometers from the front in the occupied Zapricia region. Three people were killed in Ukraine. Strikes per a Moscow-appointed official over there. In the Azov region, a Ukrainian general staff reported a strike at the Azov. Optical mechanical plant, part of the Tactical Missiles Corporation, which produces components for missiles and related systems. So, this is what we see happening every day in this catastrophic war. Now, it should also be noted another major development we saw on the sidelines of the United Nations yesterday, Russia's foreign minister, Sergei Lavrov, meeting with Germany's foreign minister.

And you'll recall that in September, drone debris was found near a military airbase in Germany. And then in August, drones carrying explosives were discovered near a Ukrainian military transport aircraft in Leipzig over there. After that, Germany announced the closure of the Russian consulate over there in Germany and Russian house in Berlin. So you see this meeting taking place right here. Let me share with you some of the images and videos that are coming out of the strikes that I just described.
