Davyd Aloian, who oversees the Freyja project, said that an international steering committee tasked with estimating the research and development costs was due to convene for the first time soon.

Ukrainian President Zelensky also said that Russia was teaching North Korea "how to wage war, improve its weapons, and gain real combat experience."

"Zelensky has attacked an Iranian commercial vessel, killing a sailor. A blatant UN Charter violation done at Israel's behest to drag Europe into its war," Iranian FM Abbas Araghchi claimed.

The Ukrainian President said Russian satellite surveillance is being given to Iranian authorities with a clear correlation between the intel and subsequent Iranian strikes in Gulf states.

Initial assessments indicated that the fire may have been caused by an electrical short circuit, although investigators are still examining all possible causes.

Zelensky hailed a long-range operation in the Caspian Sea, claiming Ukrainian forces struck a Russian warship and vessels tied to Iran-linked military logistics.

The first drone, which Romanian prosecutors investigating the fragments said was Russian, was shot down by the NATO state on Friday, the first time it has done so after dozens of airspace breaches.

Loomer formerly exhibited pro-Russia tendencies, including writing for the Russian-owned English-language outlet Russia Today.

Later that day, NATO Air Command confirmed that a drone was shot down by allied fighters under NATO command and control in Romanian airspace.

Ukrainian officials believe that Russia is unlikely to end the war full stop and think that a partial ceasefire, which has been floated before, seems like the most realistic option.
