President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has disclosed a severe deficit in Ukraine's Patriot missile supplies, revealing that the country uses 35 missiles for every 12 it receives monthly from the United States. This comes as he also stated that the U.S. proposed establishing demilitarized zones in the Donbas and on the Kinburn Spit.
In other developments, the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) detained two Russian military personnel who were found with Russian army dog tags and were reportedly heading towards Kyiv. Meanwhile, Language Ombudsman Olena Ivanivska discussed threats to the Ukrainian language, the prevalence of Russian in schools, and the limits of fines, noting that the National Security and Defense Council has not considered these threats.
On the economic front, the number of businesses for sale in Kyiv is rising due to falling demand and a staffing crisis, while Kyivstar acquired major cloud infrastructure provider GigaCloud in a deal worth over 2 billion UAH. Dragon Capital also announced plans to invest approximately 1.2 billion euros over the next three years.
