Ukraine’s Main Intelligence Directorate reports Russia has stopped making the Geran-3 drone to focus on advanced Geran-4 and Geran-5 models, producing about 3,000 per month at the Alabuga site in Tatarstan. These jet-powered drones hit speeds up to 500 km/h with better range and heavier warheads, making them tougher for Ukraine’s interceptors to stop, while Russia has built a stockpile of around 6,200 Geran drones as of August 2026. The shift aims to pierce Ukraine’s improving air defenses, raising fears of mass strikes on energy infrastructure that could cause power outages in the cold months ahead. Ukrainian officials call for quicker interceptors and more short-range defenses to keep pace.

In a statement marking the 30th anniversary of June 21, Carney visited the Nanaimo Museum with his wife to learn about Snuneymuxw First Nation culture and highlighted Indigenous stewardship, including continent mapping thousands of years before Europeans.

The exchange unfolded as Canadians marked the holiday with events from Ottawa drum circles to local markets.
