> Ukrainian civilians are suffering increased losses as Russia deploys harder-to-intercept jet-powered drones. Thirty-eight people were killed when an ammunition depot in Myla was struck on August 29, followed by 12 deaths in attacks elsewhere on September 1. Ukraine says Russian casualties reached 42,020 last month, even as Moscow’s territorial advances slowed sharply and fighting continued around Kostiantynivka in Donetsk.
