Ukraine launched a significant military assault to capture the southern city of Kherson on Monday, which was occupied by Russia in the early days of the war.
The U.S. has made it clear to Kyiv that additional ATACMS missiles are off the table due to severe stock shortages. In a significant setback for Ukraine, Washington's decision to withhold further deliveries of these long-range weapons comes amid ongoing discussions about military aid. The limited availability of ATACMS and the long production timeline have constrained U.S. support, leaving Ukraine's hopes for deep-strike capabilities dashed for now. This development marks a crucial moment in the conflict, impacting Ukraine's strategic options as it continues to face pressure from Russia.

Ukraine confirmed the loss of a Western-supplied F-16 fighter jet and its pilot, Aleksey Mes, during a Russian strike. However, reports suggest a Ukrainian Patriot missile misfired, causing the crash. Kyiv officials are investigating, considering pilot error, technical malfunction, or friendly fire as potential causes. Ukrainian MP Mariana Bezuglaya claims the incident resulted from unit dis-coordination, while Kyiv’s official report downplays the event, stating the pilot merely lost control.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is facing intense criticism from within his own ranks following significant battlefield setbacks in both the Donbass and Kursk regions. According to the Financial Times, soldiers, lawmakers, and military analysts are expressing frustration over the rapid advances made by Russian forces, which have reportedly exploited weaknesses in Ukraine’s defense strategy.
