NATO pledges 140 billion euros to Ukraine amid escalating drone warfare

At a NATO summit, the alliance is expected to pledge 140 billion euros in aid to Ukraine. The pledge comes as Russia launched its deadliest strike of the year, killing at least 27 people with 496 drones and 74 missiles. Civilian dangers are multiplying as drones transform the battlefield, and the front line has frozen in June as Russian momentum slows. Meanwhile, the Royal Navy and QinetiQ are preparing the Kraken K3 Scout USV for deployment, a type that has appeared in Ukraine.
