Warnings are increasing about the insufficient defense capabilities against drone threats in Germany. This was reported by Zamin.uz. Aerospace industry experts emphasize that the German government is facing significant problems in the field of security due to its inability to implement systematic and effective measures against drone attacks. In a letter sent to the government, the Federal Association of the German Aerospace Industry (BDLI) reported on the lack of existing legal and technical capabilities, as well as the absence of coordinated cooperation and the implementation of innovative defense solutions. Recently, the lack of effective measures against illegal drone flights in the area of the Manching military airfield has raised doubts about Germany's internal security capabilities. BDLI Executive Director Marie-Christine von Hahn assessed this situation as a factor that undermines the reputation of a democratic state and called on the government to take concrete measures to strengthen security. She emphasized the need to establish a coordinated cooperation system among government agencies and to implement new defense technologies. It was also noted that Germany could rapidly adopt the cooperative combat drone technology developed in the USA and purchase technologies from abroad in this regard. Experts warn that if solutions to these problems are not found, the country's defense system at military and strategic points will remain under serious threat. This appeal sent to the government by BDLI has garnered significant public attention. Now the main question is how the German government will draw conclusions from these critical statements and how it will shape an effective defense system against drone threats

New conflicts are emerging in the political landscape of European countries. This was reported by Zamin.uz. Three major NATO member states – France, Italy, and the Czech Republic – have decided to refrain from paying for American weapons for Ukraine, according to Politico and other Western publications citing their sources. The French government explained this decision by emphasizing that President Emmanuel Macron has long been advocating for the necessity of developing the internal defense industry of Europeans. Additionally, France is facing issues with budget deficits and spending cuts. These factors are hindering Paris from increasing its defense spending. Sources from the Italian Ministry of Defense stated in a comment to La Stampa that there is not enough budget for purchasing weapons in the country. Ministry representatives emphasized that there are no financial capabilities to buy American weapons in Italy. Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala also announced that his country will not participate in the program for purchasing American weapons for Ukraine. He mentioned that Prague is focusing on other mechanisms to assist Ukraine, particularly in supplying ammunition. Analysts believe that these decisions by European countries may lead to the emergence of new directions in internal defense policy and forms of international cooperation. The form and scope of assistance to Ukraine will become clearer in the coming months.

During the Syrian civil war, thousands of children were separated from their parents and placed in various orphanages and institutions. This was reported by Zamin.uz. In some cases, they were not handed over to their relatives, their documents were altered, and they were kept in unfamiliar places. Currently, many families remain unaware of whether their children are alive or not. According to investigations by the BBC and international organizations, at least 323 children were secretly separated from their relatives. One of the institutions that received the most children is the SOS Children’s Villages International organization located in Austria, where some former employees reported that the identities of the children were changed and contact with them was not permitted. Although the organization partially denies these allegations, it expressed regret over the fate of the children.

Currently, hundreds of mothers continue to search for their children. They visit one institution after another, trying to find their children. The new government in Syria has also begun to investigate this issue, but due to a lack of resources, no definitive results have been achieved yet. International cooperation and comprehensive investigations are considered necessary to resolve this problem.
