Combat operation of airborne units during the special military operation #Ukrainian units attempted a breakthrough in the #Nikolaev-Krivoy Rog direction by motorized infantry units supported by infantry fighting vehicles, but were stopped by units of #Russian paratroopers. 2/
#AFU were stopped by artillery, standard armament of paratrooper combat vehicles, large-calibre machine guns, anti-tank missile systems, small arms and grenade launchers.

Appears #China has closed the airspace over the #Taiwan Strait clearly due to the anticipation of the arrival of Pelosi in Taipei. The closure of airspace was initiated via a military exercise in #Fujian province involving live-fire.

So #Pelosi’s office has put out a press release of her Asia trip and itinerary. She is visiting, #Singapore, #Japan, Malaysia and South Korea.
"Our air defense works, but even from downed missiles, mines can fall to the ground and remain active. I ask all residents NOT to let their children out of the house and to exercise maximum vigilance when moving around the city until the sappers of Ministry of Emergency ..." 3/
