A handful of torpedoes would solve this issue...
A group of German journalism students investigated the drone sightings over military installations in Western Europe and in one instance tracked it back to three commercial vessels belonging to Russian services.

FPV air defence drones are incredible.

@wildhornets.bsky.social -> at what point is it worth changing from Kamikaze bomb to essentially a fighter-drone with disposable munitions (Machine guns, rockets pods etc)? Would reusable drone-fighters be worthwhile?
The enemy is trying to counter the interceptor STING drones!

The BULAVA unit detected a Shahed carrying PTM-3 mines, which were intended to destroy the warriors’ drone upon approach.

Spoiler: it didn’t work 🤭

Can ANYONE verify if any of this is true? Or is this just AI slop for views? Did Ukraine really block all comms across 200km frontline and kill 18,000 troops in 11 minutes?

Sounds far too good to be true...

OTD in 2009 Russia reaffirmed commitment to the Budapest Memorandum signed 15 years previously.

Which is why you can trust us on the "peace deal" now proposed.

The only reason the Minsk agreements were needed was cos Russia wouldn't follow

UN Charter 45
Nuclear NPT 70
Helsinki Accords 75
Paris Charter 90
Belovezha Accords 92
Budapest Memo 94
Black Sea Fleet Treaty 97
Friendship Treaty 98
Treaty on Azov Sea & Kerch Strait ‘03
Karkiv pact 10

And others.
And remember the Minsk agreements made Russia promise to respect borders

Venezuela, in violation of a promise made, have bought foreign militaries into US sphere & provoked Trump. Instead of risking WW3 in a war they can't win, they should pledge neutrality, disarm & choose a leader Donald approves of.

Apparently that's how this works.
As the United States carries out illegal attacks at sea, we must defend international law, speak up for peace, and say without hesitation: no war with Venezuela.

OTD in 1994 Russia signed the Budapest memo, guaranteeing Ukraine's territorial integrity in exchange for their nukes, 44 Ukrainian Tu-22 heavy bombers and 1,068 Kh-55 cruise missiles.

Which have been fired at Ukraine in this war.

As I've opined previously, this drone war will continue to mirror the development of the classic airforce, however it will at different scales. I predict that an arms-length fighter drone with shotgun rounds will become the norm as a layer of protection for ground forces, for example.
Russia is upgrading its Shaheds. Ukrainian channels report that the Russians have used, for the first time, a Shahed equipped with an R-60 air-to-air missile. It is reported that this combination is intended to target helicopters that shoot down the Shaheds.

Ukraine naval drones don't need to limit themselves to Ukraine's shores...

Lotta open ocean, lotta lotta Russian shadow tankers...

Just saying, @Badanov
Ukrainian forces released videos of the operation against the two oilers Kairo and Virat in the Black Sea which tried to reach the Russian coast.

The message is clear:

If you are a shipowner trying to get Russian oil, expect that you will lose your whole ship.

The completely unjustifiable war against Ukraine is consuming ever more of the Russian economy.

If Europe continues to support Ukraine and hands over those much needed air defences, Russia will break.

At this point, Russia should on a blacklist for absolutely everything. Utterly break their imports and exports markets.
