Quick and dirty geolocation of the strike on Sevastopol this morning.

Something was hit, but unfortunately the frigate pier has been used by less 'interesting' targets as the war has progressed.

Under the slogan 'Learning and Jihad,' the Houthis are launching a broad campaign to persuade parents to enroll their children in their ideological & sec summer centers. They even use schools during these centers to teach children how to use weapons.

Finally. With Ukrainian flags waving on the floor of the House of Representatives, Ukraine aid passes. It should have happened months ago, but I’m glad it happened today.

Time for the Senate to finish the job. Let’s get Ukraine what it needs to win.

A strong weekend for Ukraine's OWA drone program it seems 👇

1/ What's the deal with these Ukrainian one way attack drone strikes on Russian oil infrastructure? Ukraine and Russia's use of OWA drones has been a topic I have looked at since spring of 2022. A quick 🧵on what I've discussed

Ukraine is demonstrating the scale AND tempo of attacks needed for an effective OWA campaign. I wrote about the opportunities for Ukraine and challenges for Russia here: spectator.co.uk/article/how-uk…

More OWA drone attacks on Russia. You can't take weekends off against this sort of threat

More than just targeting launchers, the only sure way to stop bombardment of civilians is to help Ukraine win the war. Like when I last wrote about this issue in 2022, the conversation is currently about air defense but needs to go beyond it: spectator.co.uk/article/is-air…

#Ukraine confirms it shot down all 13 drones fired by #Russia .

It seems this number does include this morning's attack on #IvanoFrankivsk .

Ukraine's OWA drone attacks don't need to hit the oil industry to impose costs on Russia. The attack on the Shahed manufacturing facility and this morning's attempt against a Russian bomber factory show that. OWA drones can threaten many kinds of targets. spectator.co.uk/article/how-uk…

Unfortunately, the proliferation of OWA drones means footage like this will become more common. As more state and nonstate actors gain access to a budget 'precision' weapon with substantial range, more places may find themselves on the receiving end of a drone like this.

Join us on 26 April at 15h30 CET for the launch of our new #SANA report on the #proliferation of MANPADS in #NorthAfrica and the #MiddleEast . The launch will feature a presentation on the report and its main findings. 👉Register here: smallarmssurvey.org/event/sana-rep…

Pleased to see more articles on OWA drones across several conflicts. The threat is one that will increase air defense costs (though almost certainly not to the point of bankruptcy lol)

Moscow’s Sheremetevo airport closed “due to threat of drone attack,” according to 112 Telegram channel.

The night became as bright as day on April 17 in Crimea, where a Russian airbase was attacked with ballistic missiles in occupied Dzhankoy. Powerful explosions shook the area. One of the air regiments of the Russian Air Force is located at this base.
