EU approves Ukraine using defence credit to buy Chinese drone components

The European Commission has approved Ukraine's request to use part of an EU defence credit to purchase Chinese-made components for drones. This marks an exception to Brussels' general rules on financing Ukrainian military aid, which typically require procurement from EU or allied countries. The decision is intended to help Ukraine replenish its drone capabilities more quickly.

Was the EU right to allow Ukraine to buy Chinese drone components with EU funds?

Scrapping CPN package to push Polish inflation up to ~3% in July

Economists at Erste Bank Polska estimate that the government's withdrawal of the CPN package will add 0.8 percentage points to Poland's inflation rate in July, pushing it to around 3% year-on-year. For the second half of 2026, they forecast inflation staying between 3% and 3.5%. The estimate was issued in response to the latest data from Poland's Central Statistical Office (GUS).

Should the government have kept the CPN package to contain inflation?

Katowice surgeons performed rare brain revascularisation on 15-year-old girl

Neurosurgeons at the Upper Silesian Children's Health Centre in Katowice performed a direct brain revascularisation procedure on a 15-year-old girl who had previously suffered a stroke. The surgery involved joining cerebral blood vessels using sutures as thin as a human hair and is considered one of the most complex vascular operations in neurosurgery. The goal of the procedure is to reduce the risk of further stroke episodes for the young patient.

"Slop Face": why so many Hollywood stars are starting to look identical

A trend dubbed "slop face" is spreading through Hollywood, with critics noting that a growing number of stars increasingly look alike. Observers attribute the phenomenon to plastic surgery trends, the preferences of casting directors and the homogenising influence of social media. Critics argue that the convergence of looks is draining the entertainment industry of diversity and visual individuality.

Are social media the main driver behind the homogenisation of celebrity looks?

Jagiełło disappointed by Anna of Celje's looks, delayed their wedding

In July 1400, negotiations began for King Władysław Jagiełło to marry Anna of Celje, daughter of Count Herman II. Upon meeting his future wife, Jagiełło was reportedly disappointed by her appearance and delayed the wedding. The marriage was ultimately a political alliance meant to strengthen his dynastic position, and the birth of their daughter Jadwiga eased tensions at court.

Could a bride's appearance legitimately influence a medieval ruler's dynastic decisions?

German scientists find beetle that preys on invasive oak processionary moth

The oak processionary moth, known as the "caterpillar from hell," is spreading across Europe, including Poland, causing severe allergic reactions in humans. German scientists have discovered that a species of beetle is a natural predator of the pest and has reappeared in Germany. The finding could pave the way for biological control of the invasion.

Should biological methods be used instead of chemicals to combat invasive insect species?
