1/ QUICK THREAD about Russian commentary on using Shahed-136/Geran-2 loitering munitions in Ukraine. First, Geran-2 is preferable to launching cruise missiles since the drone launch is very difficult to observe and detect, given that it can be launched off a truck.

'Hi. If possible, just retweet the photo of my father who was killed in action. I want him at least to be seen and understood that he is a hero. Just a photo without tags or anything. I would be very grateful.'
