Moscow's new weapon — Iranian supplied drones which could possibly mark the dawn of a new kind of warfare in Ukraine.

On Wednesday, kamikaze drones launched by Russia, and forced Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to convene an emergency meeting to avoid what he called a"breakdown of [Ukraine's] energy system."

Retired U.S. Gen. Frank McKenzie, who was at one point in charge of all U.S. forces in the Middle East, said the 11-foot-by-8-foot drone carries a relatively small 90-pound warhead that is powerful enough to destroy transformer yards. Rescue workers inspect a building destroyed by Russian drone strikes as they continue their field work following the wave of Russia's attacks in Kyiv, Kyiv Oblast, Ukraine on Oct. 18, 2022. Local authorities reported airstrikes in Ukraine's capital Kyiv on Tuesday morning, as a wave of drone and missile strikes on the country's capital and other cities continued its second week.

Aren’t ‘kamikaze drones’ just ‘guided missiles’?

Unforgivable Russia’s unprovoked invasion. Has Ukraine shelled or strafed civilians against Moscow? No one. But what did the Russian soldiers do? Drone war, attack. What will Russia try next? Conflicts have arisen, but “there is no winner in a nuclear war.” -- none of them.

Outfuckinrageous

Iran says this is not true.

Putin is a terrorist! Capture his ass at the G-20 and send him to The Hague to stand trial for war crimes! It’s too late after he uses tactical nukes in Ukrainian civilians.

This has been a drone war for the last 6 months at least.
