Russia has been mounting Elon Musk’s Starlink satellite systems on its attack drones to strike deeper into Ukraine, extending their potential flight range to well inside NATO territory, analysts and Ukrainian officials have said.

The British government is seeking new powers for troops as sightings of "rogue drones" around military bases doubled amid tension with Russia.

Officials in Ukraine say that a heavy Russian drone attack on Odesa has killed at least three people and wounded 23, including children and a pregnant woman.

Efforts to halt Russia’s use of the Starlink internet system to guide its drones for attacks on Ukraine have produced “real results,” Ukraine’s defense minister Mykhailo Fedorov said on Sunday.
