 Russia claims that Ukrainian drones are equipped with NASA-grade space technology. Ukrainian drones are equipped with NASA-grade space technology, specifically with materials akin to those used in NASA's Mars mission, reported Russian propaganda outlets. Dmitry Kuzyakin, the head of the Center for Integrated Unmanned Solutions of Russia, cited in these reports, claimed the discovery of batteries in Ukrainian drones that are allegedly the same as those used in NASA's extraterrestrial endeavors. Kuzyakin's statements extend to the assertion that these drones also incorporate specialized aluminium alloys akin to those the US employs in its space program. However, no concrete evidence was provided to back these claims, leaving the assertions hanging in the air. Earlier, Dmitry Nataluka, the chairman of the Committee on Economic Development of Ukraine, said that the current situation in Ukraine, against the backdrop of a shortage of weapons and technologies in the bloodiest war of our time, once again underlines the critical role that the space industry can play in the national defence and security of our country. Therefore, when in the second year of a full-scale war, I still hear from some representatives of the executive branch that space should be dealt with in peacetime. I understand that if this is not amateurishness, it is simply a lack of understanding of the basic cause and effect relationships in global military dynamics, the role of space technology in national security, and the potential for using space technology for military purposes. Space technologies in their broadest sense. Today, the perception of space in Ukraine as a peaceful whim does not stand up to criticism, both from the point of view of the history of the founding and development of the world's most famous space agency, the American NASA, and from the point of view of how the space industry has provided military defence complexes around the world with leading weapons that are now successfully used by their armies for deterrence, attack, or intelligence gathering, he added.

Security Council to hold an emergency meeting to discuss an Israeli airstrike that destroyed Iran's consulate in Syria's capital. Israel has carried out several hundred strikes on targets in government-controlled parts of Syria in recent years. But the number has escalated since the beginning of the nearly six-month Israeli Hamas-war in Gaza and periodic clashes between Israel's military and Hezbollah fighters along the Lebanon-Israel border.An Israeli airstrike in a Damascus neighborhood in December killed a longtime advisor of the Iranian paramilitary Revolutionary Guard in Syria, Said Rezi Musavi. A similar strike on a building in Damascus in January killed at least five Iranian advisors. Last week, airstrikes over the strategic eastern Syrian province of Der El-Zour near the Iraqi border killed an Iranian advisor.
