Footage of deliberate Russian strike on Vinnytsia yesterday. 21 people injured in the city by the attack. Dozens of buildings damaged. This terrible sound...too familiar for so many Ukrainians.

Yesterday was the largest combined Russian attack on Ukraine. During the day, Russia launched 556 drones, and only 15 of them reached their targets - just about 3%. Ukraine’s air defense shoots down up to 95-97% of drones targeting civilian cities, and this happens every day. Ukraine’s air defense is one of the most powerful in the world. 📹: Wild Hornets

Ukrainian forces recently advanced in the Slovyansk direction, in the Kostyantynivka-Druzhkivka tactical area, and in western Zaporizhia Oblast. ⬇️ 1) Geolocated footage published on March 24 shows Ukrainian forces clearing a Russian-occupied building and detaining Russian prisoners of war (POWs) in eastern Prymorske (northwest of Orikhiv), indicating that Ukrainian forces recently advanced in the area. 2) Geolocated footage published on March 23 indicates that Ukrainian forces recently advanced within and north of Zakitne (east of Slovyansk). 3) Geolocated footage and a report from a Ukrainian military source published on March 23 and 24 indicate that Ukrainian forces likely liberated Minkivka (northeast of Kostyantynivka). 4) Geolocated footage published on March 20 and 23 indicates that Ukrainian forces recently advanced in eastern and southeastern Kostyantynivka and south of the settlement. Geolocated footage published on March 23 indicates that Ukrainian forces advanced south of Illinivka (south of Kostyantynivka). Likely archival geolocated footage published on March 24 shows Ukrainian forces clearing a Russian position and capturing two Russian servicemembers southeast of Novopavlivka (southwest of Druzhkivka), indicating that Russian forces no longer maintain this position.

What does this even mean? Did Iran agree to turn over or lease Kharg Island?
