UPDATE 4-Polish president says Ukrainian grain dispute won't significantly affect relations
ReutersFri, September 22, 2023 at 12:01 PM GMT+2·2 min read
(Updating to change headline)
WARSAW, Sept 22 (Reuters) - A dispute between Poland and Ukraine over grain imports will not significantly affect the countries' good bilateral relations, the Polish president said on Friday, as he moved to ease tensions over the issue. […]
"I have no doubt that the dispute over the supply of grain from Ukraine to the Polish market is an absolute fragment of the entire Polish-Ukrainian relations," President Andrzej Duda told a business conference.
"I don't believe that it can have a significant impact on them, so we need to solve this matter between us." […]
"There's absolutely no contradiction here." Rau wrote. "Supporting Ukraine against Russia's invasion and protecting our citizens and safeguarding them against unfair economic competition — both serve Poland's interest simultaneously." [...

UPDATE 7-Polish PM tells Ukraine's Zelenskiy 'never to insult Poles again'

Biden tells Zelenskyy U.S. will send Ukraine ATACMS long-range missiles
Some in Washington had resisted supplying the weapons system, known as “attack-ems,” out of fear that it would widen the war with Russia.

EDIT: One of those X/Twitter-links I can't embed...

"
The US has to make a choice:
1) Pay Lockheed Martin to refurbish 1,000 outdated ATACMS and give Ukraine 1,000 ready-to-go ATACMS
2) Pay Lockheed Martin more money to dismantle the same 1,000 outdated ATACMS
The US doesn't lack (!) ATACMS - the White House just lacks courage.

Canada will send X more Leopard 2 tanks to UKR.
I hear they've been stacking lots of tires about lately. Oh, and burying the occasional dead commander.What Russian air defense doing?
At the beginning of Putin’s 2022 full scale invasion of Ukraine he stated the objective was to “demilitarize and denazify Ukraine”.
Yet it was only Putin committing nazi/fascist crimes, attacking the only country outside of Israel with an elected Jewish head of state, targeting civilians with abduction of children, forced deportation of Ukrainians, colonial Russian settlement, genocidal murder (Bucha et al), and during the war Ukraine becomes the only country with a Jewish head of state to elect a Muslim Minister of Defense.
Meanwhile, Ukraine is now one of the most militarized countries in the world, far more on par with Russia than the day of Russia’s full scale invasion. And it's not just exogenous militarization. Endogenous capabilities are greater now than day 0 and rapidly growing.
Strong work, Vlad.

If this is confirmed real, this is the highest ranking naval officer killed in Russia in their War on Ukraine and since WW2.

These stock photos of high Russian officials always include the banks of phones on the desk.
From a 1968 viewpoint, I guess that makes them look in control of some vast complex organization.
More endogenous Ukrainian remote operated/drone development:

Ironclad is a robotic platform assisting Ukraine’s forces in executing missions, including storming positions, reconnaissance, and providing fire support to troops. The machine reaches speeds up to 20 km/h, equipped with a thermal camera, Shablya M2 turret, and armored plating to protect against small arms fire. Ironclad can be remotely operated from a safe location.

So finally? Believe it when we see it? I hear only 200 at first? That would eliminate the helicopter fleets and air fleets in occupied areas.
These were not the only hits in Crimea, several other targets hit. The HQ was hit by several missiles, not just 1, FYI.

Cue the incoming Russian missiles on Ukrainian civilian targets in three, two, one…
They tried to hit the Ukrainian airfield and certainly hit something, lots of dead
