Some interesting stuff in the Times today (behind a paywall):
- Mark Galeotti article on the recent Ukrainian drone attack: how it highlights the weaknesses in Russia’s defence; the lack of options for Putin to respond ( whilst unwelcome, Russia’s extensive drone attacks are just more of the same); Ukraine clearly winning the espionage war ( assassinations, sabotage etc - none of which seems to happen in Ukraine)
- How drones changed modern warfare and how they are likely to evolve - and countermeasures
- Matthew Syed article about Russia’s UK ambassador claiming that the UK is uniquely implicated in the Ukrainian drone attacks on Russia- apparently UK provided significant targeting support to Ukraine and as a consequence the UK should be prepared for significant retaliation, possibly a massive cyber attack

I'd like a cyber attack on the Russian embassy in London, but we're probably too 'correct' to do that.
It must be incredibly scary watching it from a room nearby.

Slowly but surely, Ukraine is disabling Russia.
And it appears that Russia cannot stop this process.

You are right, and I keep forgetting that part - their air defence is stretched so thinly, or is ineffective, Ukraine can strike at least a couple of targets daily.
God in heaven ! There was me thinking that he was one of Mr Genocide's puppets.
Perhaps the tide is turning.......

I should coco
It’s is very telling as only a couple of weeks ago he was spouting Putin bollocks.
He is more likely to see cracks in putins power base long before anyone else outside of Russia.

Isn't that the sort of thing that Trump says from time to time
Hungarian parliamentary elections in 2026, and Orban's party has been dropping in the polls - support down to 40% I believe.
On reflection, I think it's more to do with that: pretend how moderate and European he is (to the oppo voters), then resume pro-Putin business as usual if he gets back in.

This is what Russia does with their planned double-tap strikes
To a deranged psychotic murderer like Mr Genocide, they are nothing more than collateral damage.
