The Ukrainian army, following the Russian one, has begun to protect roads from drones. The first footage was presumably filmed in the Sumy region of Ukraine. In the video, you can see installed poles and stretched wire, it is unknown whether a net will be stretched. The first to use this type of protection were Wagner units, the use of a net complicates the work of drone operators.

Ukrainian servicemen showed an M113 armored personnel carrier with additional lattice protection of the "Tsar-mangal" type. This type of protection helps to resist drone attacks. M113 armored personnel carriers were developed in the United States in 1957 and are now widely used in the Ukrainian army. M113 armored personnel carriers are also used by the Russian army.
The Ukrainian army has shown footage of the construction of defensive structures in the Pokrovsk direction. Note that the trenches are equipped with ready-made lattice metal structures with protection against drones. Ready-made pillboxes are also being installed. All this allows fortifications to be erected in any place in a short time.
That's a lot of iron there on the front, did they have industry still able to make the base material or it's now mostly imported ? Kryvyi Rih have the largest plant to make steel in Ukraine, don't know if they have the energy to make it works ? The rest are on the front or taken over...The Ukrainian army has shown footage of the construction of defensive structures in the Pokrovsk direction.

Rare footage of the Ukrainian MIM-104 Patriot air defense system, there is almost no video of them. In the video, a Ukrainian serviceman shows the Patriot air defense system and thanks the United States for the air defense system provided. Earlier, flash mobs began in Ukraine, thanking the United States for the military equipment provided. The other day, they also showed an F-16 aircraft. Now, US President Donald Trump has ordered a suspension of military aid to Ukraine, after a scandalous conversation with the President of Ukraine. As Bloomberg reported, if the United States does not resume arms supplies, Ukraine's weapons reserves will last for several months, which could lead to defeat.
The Ukrainian company Ptashka Drones demonstrated a miniature hand-held drone interception system. The device is quite small and is equipped with a net that is fired in the direction of the drone's flight. The net launcher is convenient to use as individual protection for soldiers against drones. It is still unknown whether there will be large-scale production. According to the developer, the device fires a 3.5-meter net at drones at a distance of up to 30 meters. Examples of the device and its prototype in action are shown in the video.
The Ukrainian army has started using a new UAS SETH attack drone. The drones were given to the servicemen by the charity foundation "Turn Alive". Visually, the drone is a smaller copy of the Russian Geran drones. The UAS SETH drone is reportedly easy to operate and has automatic targeting, but judging by the video, the drone's targeting is adjusted. The UAS SETH drone has a short flight range and is designed to hit targets in the frontline zone. Technical details are unknown.
