To understand what triggered the protests and the unexpected reaction in Ukraine, it’s essential to know the context - especially for those who don’t follow Ukraine’s internal politics.
🧵Thread:
1/ First, the protest isn’t aimed at the President personally, but at a specific law passed yesterday.

The situation with Russians killing a toddler with a drone is especially despicable when you realize this wasn’t a stray artillery shell that landed 50 meters off, or a Shahed drone that hit a tall building, but an FPV drone, guided in real time by an operator watching it live

Wherever a russian soldier sets foot, there is death, destruction, mass graves, mined kids’ toys, murdered animals, torture chambers, and of course looted homes
Putin: “We have this old rule: wherever a Russian soldier sets foot, it’s ours.”
He’s not even pretending to hide his imperialism. Contrary to what Trump and others claim, this war was never about NATO expansion

The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles — not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle.

Interesting read about military drone competition and battles.
Fascinating interview with a private drone designer for the RU military. His knowledge of UKR & Western drones is limited and should be taken with some skepticism but he still presents a quite candid picture into the current state of unmanned warfare:🧵
