🔴 EU chief Von der Leyen announces 'drone deal' with Ukraine

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced a new defense partnership between the European Union and Ukraine during a visit to Kyiv for Ukraine's Statehood Day celebrations. The agreement aims to combine Ukraine's advanced drone technology with the EU's industrial capacity to enhance both military capabilities and secure production sites. This marks the first EU-wide initiative of its kind, following several bilateral agreements Ukraine has made with individual European nations. Meanwhile, Russia continued its attacks on Ukrainian cities, including Odesa and Sumy, where multiple casualties were reported due to drone and missile strikes targeting infrastructure and civilian areas.
