France Orders Firms to Prioritise Anti-Air Missile Orders
A major supplier affected by the order was Aubert et Duval, which produces specialist steel for items including submarines and the barrels for Caesar truck-mounted cannons supplied to Ukraine.

France has ordered firms involved in production of Aster air defence missiles to prioritise those contracts, Defence Minister Sebastien Lecornu said Monday.

It was "the first time" he had used special powers to compel queue-jumping for defence orders, meaning "civilian orders must from now on have lower priority," Lecornu said in Calvi, Corsica, where he was meeting his Italian counterpart Guido Crosetto.

"Players in the defence industry must understand that they have to work faster, and that the country's future depends on this work," Crosetto said.

Norway to allocate over $600 million for Ukrainian air defense, ammunition
Oslo will increase aid to Ukraine by 7 billion Norwegian kroner (about $630 million), the bulk of which will support Kyiv's anti-aircraft and artillery ammunition supplies, Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Stoere told the E24 news outlet on April 30.

Stoere previously said on April 21 that Norway would direct "significant sums" to Ukraine's air defense but did not specify the exact amount.

The new funds will primarily support military aid to Ukraine, with a smaller portion allocated to civilian financial aid, Stoere said.

Norway will partner with Germany, the United States, and other allies to find anti-aircraft ammunition to better protect Ukraine's skies. According to Stoere, air defense systems have already been produced and are ready to deliver to Kyiv in the near future.

"Now it's about delivering fairly immediately on this with air defense," Stoere said.

"We get daily news that Ukrainians are waking up to apartment buildings, hospitals and power plants being hit by Russian missiles. They must be able to defend themselves against this."

The funds will also support the Czech initiative to purchase artillery shells for Ukraine's front-line troops.

Norway has recently ramped up efforts to increase defense production, both for domestic needs and for aid to Ukraine. Oslo allocated 2 billion Norwegian kroner ($190 million) in January for Ukrainian aid.

Redeeming futures
How Kadyrov’s potential successor has been using the war in Ukraine as a path to redemption

Apti Alaudinov, one of the most likely heirs to the Chechen throne in the light of leader Ramzan Kadyrov’s illness, has used the war in Ukraine to earn the Kremlin’s trust and help win back Kadyrov’s favour.

Alaudinov has managed to survive in Chechnya despite initially being on the opposing side to the Kadyrov clan, and even being banished from Chechnya five years ago. As war broke out in Ukraine, Alaudinov finally got a chance to atone for his sins and help Kadyrov save his private army from ruin.

Chashiv Yar. Russia throws soldiers into battle unarmed, forcing them to acquire weapons in battle
A spokesman for the Khortytsia Operational-Strategic Group said that the Russian military command instructs its soldiers to obtain weapons in combat

In the area of Chasiv Yar in the Donetsk Oblast, there have been instances of Russia sending its troops into battle without weapons, the spokesman for the Khortytsia Operational-Strategic Group, Nazar Voloshyn, told LIGA.net.

"In the area of Chasiv Yar, there are cases in which the enemy, regardless of the loss of personnel, sends people into battle without weapons. They may hold sticks or something else that imitates the presence of weapons. At the same time, they receive instructions that they must get weapons in the battle," he said.

Voloshyn added that the Defense Forces continue to inflict losses on the occupiers in manpower and equipment, exhausting the enemy along the entire battle line.

In April, the Russian army lost 24,156 personnel, 308 tanks, 671 combat vehicles, 15,945 drones, 10 anti-aircraft systems, and other military equipment in the area of responsibility of the Khortytsia Operational-Strategic Group.
