Ukrainian military intelligence launched a drone attack against a Russian naval base in Kaspiysk, Dagestan, targeting vessels involved in strikes against Ukraine. At least two Russian warships were damaged in the attack, which occurred approximately 1,000 kilometers from the frontlines. While Russian authorities reported intercepting a single drone, social media footage suggests a second drone hit its target, resulting in a large explosion. The incident led to the temporary suspension of operations at a nearby airport, highlighting the growing threat posed by Ukrainian drone strikes deep within Russian territory.

Ukraine has taken a bold step in defending itself by launching a counter-attack on Russia with 144 drones. In response to this, Putin has declared a 3-day special operation to combat what he perceives as a threat. The audacity of Putin to think that he is entitled to launch attacks without facing retaliation is mind-boggling. It is clear that Ukraine has every right to defend itself and liberate itself from Putin’s oppressive grip.
The fact that one person was killed near Moscow as a result of the drone attack is a tragedy, but it is essential to remember that Ukraine is fighting to protect its sovereignty and its people from Russian aggression.… Continue reading
I am absolutely astounded by the audacity and precision of the recent drone attack that took place over Russian airspace. The fact that a Ukrainian sport plane drone managed to fly a whopping 800 miles undetected to blow up an oil refinery is nothing short of remarkable. It leaves me questioning the effectiveness of Russia’s air defenses – or lack thereof – in this situation. How could such a vulnerable target go unnoticed for such an extensive period of time?
The act itself brings about a sense of poetic justice, as it is seen as a form of retaliation against the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the atrocities committed on innocent civilians.… Continue reading
The recent news of Israel dismissing two officers over deadly drone strikes on aid workers in Gaza has sparked outrage and conversation around the world. As someone who values fairness, justice, and human rights, this incident hits close to home for me. The fact that these officers authorized lethal drone strikes based on incomplete and inaccurate information is deeply concerning. It raises questions about the accountability and decision-making processes within the Israeli army.
The military’s rules of engagement require officers to have more than one reason for identifying someone as a target before launching an attack. In this case, a colonel authorized the deadly strikes based on the observation of a single major, who claimed to have seen someone in the convoy carrying a weapon.… Continue reading
As I sit here, scrolling through the latest news updates on my phone, I come across a headline that catches my eye: “Moscow flights grounded by mass Ukrainian drone strikes.” The words jump out at me, drawing me into a world of conflict and chaos that seems so distant yet so unnervingly close.
The idea that drones are being used to target Moscow, a bustling city that once seemed untouchable, sends shivers down my spine. It’s a stark reminder that war knows no boundaries, that no place is truly safe when the tides of conflict begin to surge.
I can’t help but think of the implications of these strikes.… Continue reading
Iran Denies Ordering Drone Strike as Biden Weighs a Response
Iran’s denial of ordering a drone strike comes as no surprise. The evidence seems to suggest otherwise. I mean, come on, they left a suicide drone on a launcher with a giant gift bow and a button that says “DEFINITELY DO NOT PUSH THIS BUTTON” – talk about a blatant attempt to distance themselves from involvement. It’s almost comical.
But let’s not forget the bigger picture here. Iran has been involved in numerous attacks since October, and now they expect us to believe that they had no hand in this one?… Continue reading
Biden says he’s decided on response to Iran over deadly drone attack. The U.S. response will involve multiple deliberate strikes on facilities that enabled the attacks on U.S. forces. It’s both concerning and amusing to see Iran-backed groups claiming they will suspend attacks on U.S. forces as if it’s a generous act. In reality, they know they messed up and are trying to distance themselves now.
The response needs to be impactful to curtail Iran’s behavior, and there are three key targets: Shahed drone production facilities/storage, Iranian drone earth terminals, and Iranian oil production facilities. By striking these targets, the U.S.… Continue reading
As I sit here and read about the recent drone strike by an Iran-backed group that resulted in the deaths of three US troops in Jordan, I can’t help but feel a deep sense of frustration and anger. It seems like every week we are faced with a similar statement, another act of aggression that demands a response.
President Biden’s words, though vague, reassure me that the United States will not stand idly by. He promises to hold all those responsible to account, and while I appreciate his commitment, part of me wonders if Iran is intentionally trying to provoke a response from Biden, to make him a wartime president.… Continue reading
