Reporting with multiple sources says Musk went to the Whitehouse with a plan to limit the connectivity of Ukrainian drones to satellites. The connections worked on the drones full speed when the drones flew into the EU, but didn’t work in Ukraine, making it seem that the connectivity was intentionally slowed for Ukraine. Musk said the Whitehouse had the say not him. The slowdown happened right as Trump was pressuring Ukraine publicly.
Russia is playing aggressive games with NATO while also currently invading its neighbor.
For example, a Russian helicopter flew into Poland and then returned home. If Poland had shot it down, it’s likely that the helicopter could have flown into Russian territory before the missile hit, meaning Russia would misleadingly claim that it was an attack on Russian soil even though the helicopter was fired upon while in Poland.
Wildberries in Russia actively sold military equipment to Russian soldiers and they did it openly, making it a legitimate military target. Although, economic warfare is probably the main purpose of Ukrainian strikes on Wildberries, which is the Amazon of Russia.
Sanctions and attacking Russia’s shadow fleet have hurt Russia’s economy, but Russia isn’t spending less on its military, it’s just making its citizens worse off.
The Trump administration keeps claiming how well they have degraded Iranian capabilities, but US bases keep getting hit. Iran isn’t going to surrender due to air strikes. The best way to win the war is a full land invasion, with the massive costs that that would entail.
Ukraine’s medium strike with drones has gotten really good. This makes it hard to get supplies and reinforcements to the front and forces personnel and equipment further from the front line, increasing traveling time, which creates: delays, wear and tear on vehicles, and more vulnerable road time.
British people may have not cared if Britain negotiated away the Falkland Islands, but, because Argentina invaded, the British want the UK to hold it forever.
