This new drone features a turbojet engine, allowing it to achieve higher speeds necessary to engage faster Russian unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

Polish Foundation Funds Buses for Ukrainian City Vinnytsia Amidst Power Outages and Historical Disputes

Polish Foundation Funds Buses for Ukrainian City Vinnytsia Amidst Power Outages and Historical Disputes

The first shipment of decommissioned Polish city buses is en route to Vinnytsia, Ukraine, following a public fundraising campaign. Three buses from Kielce have already been dispatched, with a total of 15 diesel-powered Solaris buses expected to be delivered in five batches by the end of September. This initiative, organized by the Polish foundation Sikorki na Ukrainie, raised over 620,000 zloty ($163,200) to purchase the equipment. The buses are intended to maintain Vinnytsia’s public transportation system during power outages caused by Russian attacks on Ukraine’s energy grid, as the city heavily relies on electric trams and trolleybuses that are vulnerable to blackouts. This grassroots effort emerged after an initial plan by Kielce authorities to donate buses was canceled due to opposition from local councilors over a street in Vinnytsia named after Stepan Bandera, a controversial Ukrainian nationalist leader from World War II.
