Russia's newest Lancet drones appear to have found a way to evade Ukrainian defenses. This means the warheads detonate some distance away, rather than on impact. AdvertisementAdvertisementAn advanced version of Russia's feared Lancet drone appears to have a new way to evade Ukrainian armored anti-tank grids and anti-drone nets. Russian forces posted a video of a Lancet drone striking a Ukrainian combat vehicle by exploding several feet away from the target. While the advancements will put some Ukrainian vehicles at risk, the best-protected vehicles should still be able to fend off the attacks, Forbes said.

Two Russian T-72 tanks were taken out by a single US-supplied Bradley IFV, Ukraine says. Ukraine's deputy defense minister said the tanks were set aflame by the Bradley's anti-tank missiles. Ukraine is keen to demonstrate to Western allies how it is putting their military aid to good use. She said the vehicle took a direct hit from a Russian Grad rocket system — but was tough enough to keep going, while protecting everyone inside. "If we were using some Soviet armored personnel carrier we would all probably be dead after the first hit."

A video appears to show a Ukrainian tank firing on a Russian trench, backed by troops in an IFV. The drone footage, shared by Ukrainian forces, says the attack is in the town of Ivanivske. Russian forces are continuing attacks in eastern Ukraine as they try to seize the town of Bakhmut. In the video, a tank can be seen rolling up to the trenches through a barren landscape before firing several rounds. The tank then quickly reverses and moves away, at which point an infantry fighting vehicle (IFV) pulls up with Ukrainian troops inside.
Ukraine battles on in Bakhmut as Finland joins NATO

[1/2] An Ukrainian serviceman sits atop an infantry fighting vehicle (IFV), amid Russia's invasion of Ukraine, near the bombed-out eastern city of Bakhmut, in the eastern Donetsk region, Ukraine, April 2, 2023. "From a legal point of view, Bakhmut has been taken," said Prigozhin, who has previously made premature claims. "Bakhmut is Ukrainian and they have not captured anything and are very far from doing that," Serhiy Cherevatyi, spokesperson for the eastern military command, told Reuters. Western pressure on Russia may increase with Finland, which shares a 1,300-km (810-mile) border with Russia, joining NATO on Tuesday. "In the event that the forces and resources of other NATO members are deployed in Finland, we will take additional steps to reliably ensure Russia's military security," he told RIA.
Russian troops keep driving to their death at an infamous crossroads in eastern Ukraine. Drone footage from Ukraine's military has circulated on social media, appearing to show Russian vehicles being destroyed at the crossing point. Fighting has raged in the eastern Ukrainian town, and its neighboring villages as Russia has made several failed attempts to capture it. Ukraine's unexpected use of mines appears to be helping give it the upper hand in fighting in eastern Ukraine. Along with traditional Soviet mines, Ukraine has also been using US-supplied remote anti-armor mines, which involve firing a shell over an open area that scatters tiny mines widely.
Insula va putea "să imunizeze populaţia cubaneză împotriva coronavirusului în primul semestru din 2021", a declarat directorul Institutului de vaccinare Finlay (IFV), Vicente Vérez Bencomo, citat de jurnalul oficial Granma.Două vaccinuri candidate împotriva COVID-19 sunt în curs de elaborare la IFV, Soberana 01 şi Soberana 02.Vicente Vérez Bencomo a făcut aceste declaraţii cu ocazia unei vizite la institut a preşedintelui cubanez Miguel Diaz-Canel.Cele două "soberana au avansat bine în testele clinice, primul încheie faza 1, iar al doilea intră în faza 2", a precizat el.Unui grup de circa o mie de voluntari li se vor administra diferite variante de Soberana 02 în ianaurie şi, după ce vor fi făcute evaluările, va putea începe faza 3 cu participarea a 150.000 de persoane la Havana, a mai spus Vicente Vérez Bencomo.În prezent, se poartă negocieri pentru a efectua faza 3 a vaccinului Soberana 02 şi în alte ţări, dată fiind numărul scăzut de cazuri de COVID-19 în rândul populaţiei cubaneze.Centrul de inginerie genetică şi biotehnologie lucrează, de asemenea, la două vaccinuri candidate împotriva coronaviruslui, numite Mambisa şi Abdala.Oamenii de ştiinţă cubanezi au o vastă experienţă în domeniul cercetării vaccinurilor. Programul naţional de vaccinare infantilă prevede 11 vaccinuri, dintre care opt produse pe insulă, pentru a lupta împotriva a 13 boli, scrie agerpres. Deşi o resurgenţă a numărului de cazuri este constatată din cauza redeschiderii frontierelor, numărul de cazuri rămâne scăzut în Cuba, mai ales în comparaţie cu vecinii săi: duminică se ridica la 11.434 de cazuri, dintre care 143 de decese, pentru o populaţie de 11,2 milioane de locuitori.
