> Ukraine has successfully trialed another interceptor drone aimed at Russia’s jet-powered Shahed drones, President Volodymyr Zelensky said, though its control still needs refinement. Russia’s Sept. 15 drone attack on Kyiv killed one person and wounded at least 12. Ukraine’s General Staff reported more than 300,000 Russian military losses since the start of 2026.
