With Iranian drones currently dominating headlines, it's worth remembering that Tehran was the first to provide Assad's forces with UAV technology – and years before Russia. These drones, mainly used for tactical reconnaissance, gave Regime crucial battlefield intel - while Rebels only had access to small commercial UAVs. The... show more

😡 Russia reveals drone production facility in Alabuga — hundreds of Shaheds being prepped for attacks For the first time, Russia has shown the inside of its drone assembly plant in Alabuga, where Iranian-made Shahed-136 (known in Russia as “Geran-2”) drones are assembled and upgraded. Photos and videos show dozens of drones in various stages of production. These are the same UAVs used to bomb Ukrainian cities. 🏭 The Alabuga plant is considered one of Russia’s key defense industry sites and has already been targeted multiple times by Ukrainian drone strikes. Despite the damage, production continues — and is reportedly expanding.

Ukrainian heavy drones, which perform various tasks (as a relay, for logistics, mining and destruction), have become an integral part of Ukrainian defense. It is extremely difficult to imagine the battlefield through the eyes of a UA military without this class of drones. For years together with my fighters we have been preparing for the fact that the enemy is about to scale this direction and a similar class of drones will appear in their hands. For the first time I met them during the Kursk operation. But what was my surprise that Russians after 5 years of war have not yet tested these drones and launched them into series. But it will be changed. Undoubtedly, the appearance and scaling of certain drones on both sides is due to the conditions in which they work (for example, Russian INs are not even close to Ukrainian ones), but it is difficult to find arguments for abandoning this class of drones. And Russians are not abandoning them. But they see a significantly smaller role in them than in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Russian plans include the creation of UAV battalions (which are significantly smaller in number of personal than Ukrainian ones) as part of regiments and brigades, where each battalion will have 4 crews of heavy drones. And Russian newly formed SBS forces according to plans should receive two companies of heavy bombers. And I only hope that this should not be a surprise for the Armed Forces of Ukraine as it was in the case with the completely symmetrical and non-innovative actions from «Rubicon». UA FPV drone destroyes former UA Vampire drone that became a trophy for Russians and was used by them.

NEW: Iran Uncovers Alleged Mossad Drone Workshop Near Tehran Iranian police say they raided a three-story house on the outskirts of Tehran used by Israeli agents to build drones and explosives. Footage shows drone wings and fuselage parts laid out on tables, along with metal tooling used to manufacture components. ➤ Police say the drones were being assembled in the house itself. Pieces of equipment used to fabricate parts were also recovered. ➤ Israeli officials previously told Axios that Mossad smuggled drones into Iran and spent more than eight months preparing a covert operation aimed at targeting Iranian missile infrastructure. ➤ According to The Guardian, Israeli intelligence claimed Mossad agents had embedded near air defense sites to carry out coordinated sabotage missions alongside drone strikes. The site revealed by Iranian police appears to align with those claims—offering one of the first visual confirmations of Mossad’s presence on Iranian soil, as Israel escalates its war on Iran while continuing its genocide in Gaza. (Two days ago, footage released by the Mossad claimed to show Israeli agents in Iran. Video by The Guardian - right)

FOX: Does President Trump see his conflict with Iran as linked to your war with Russia? ZELENSKYY: I’m not sure. We didn’t really speak about it. FOX: Do you? ZELENSKYY: Yeah, look at this. Russia gave drones to Iran. Iran used these drones to attack Middle Eastern countries and Israel. Is it true? Yes, it’s true. The details in destroyed Iranian drones are Russian. Everybody saw this. That’s the first point. Then Russia provided Iran with satellite images of American bases in Middle Eastern countries. Did they give them? Yes, they did. FOX: And you’re convinced? ZELENSKYY: Absolutely. Then Russia is very happy, we know this from intelligence, that there’s no real end to war in Middle East. Why? Because they understand that since United States is involved in this war, it can’t help Ukraine at the same level as before. For example, with Patriots, and many other examples.

🇮🇷🇦🇿 Two drones struck Nakhichevan, Azerbaijan, hitting the terminal of Nakhichevan International Airport while another crashed near a school in the village of Shekarabad. Azerbaijani authorities report two civilians injured. Baku immediately blamed Iran and warned the attack would not go unanswered. However, Tehran denies responsibility for the strikes, saying Iran was not behind the drone attack on the Azerbaijani exclave. The airport itself is not purely civilian. It hosts military helicopters and drones, including Israeli-made Hermes-900 UAVs operated by Azerbaijan. For years, Iranian officials have warned that Israeli drones may be entering Iranian airspace through Azerbaijani territory, a concern repeatedly raised in Tehran. This explains why Nakhichevan could be viewed as a potential military target. The region sits directly on Iran’s border and is closely tied to Azerbaijan’s security cooperation with Israel and the United States, something Tehran has long regarded with suspicion. At the same time, opening a direct confrontation with Azerbaijan would be strategically risky for Iran, especially as the wider war with the U.S.-Israeli coalition expands across the region. A new northern front would clearly benefit Iran’s adversaries, who are already looking for ways to widen the conflict.

ZELENSKYY ON IRAN: "Every "Shahed" drone in Ukrainian skies proves that the Iranian regime must be held accountable for it's attempts to destroy lives and kill people. It is essential that those who defend life prevail in this confrontation. At the level of our teams – the Ukrainian team, the teams of the Emirates and Qatar, and other states – we will determine how, together, we can provide stronger protection for life. Ukraine's expertise in countering "Shahed" drones is currently the most advanced in the world, and these drones represent the primary challenge in that region as well. It is clear why so many requests are directed to Ukraine. However, any such cooperation aimed at protecting our partners can only proceed without diminishing our own defense capabilities here in Ukraine. Russia's war against Ukraine continues, Russian strikes continue, and protecting Ukrainian lives remains our first priority. Thank you to everyone who stands with Ukraine! Glory to Ukraine!"

Hezbollah’s fiber-optic FPV drones, which cost under $500, are disabling Israeli Merkava tanks worth $5 to 7 million. The IOF does not have a single weapon in their arsenal that can detect these new drones, which are completely immune to traditional electronic jamming devices. VPol journalist Calla Walsh (Calla) explains. ￭ Rather than a radio link, the fiber-optic drones are physically tethered to their operator by an ultra-thin fiber-optic cable that stretches for up to 60km, transmitting video and data back to the pilot. ￭ The Israeli occupation has been shocked by the introduction of these drones into the battlefield, and there is no indication the IOF had any foresight or intel on Hezbollah’s supply chain. ￭ These drones were first deployed by Russia and Ukraine, but there’s no sign of direct Russian involvement, nor is there any need for it. Rather, Hezbollah is closely studying other warzones to innovate and adapt for their own battle against Israeli occupation, and information on fiber-optic FPVs is open-source. ￭ Israeli media describes it as “a technological arms race, and although Israel is at the forefront of interception technology, there is currently no complete solution to the threat… the battlefield in Lebanon proves that sometimes a single thin thread can threaten even the most heavily armored technological systems… Israel possesses Arrow missiles and F-35 Lightning II aircraft, but it has failed to deal with cheap explosive drones in southern Lebanon.”

Footage of joint Russian-Iranian drills just two weeks ago, February 19, 2026. When Iran turned to Putin for help, it was refused, even though Russia called Iran an important ally and signed a strategic partnership agreement with it a year ago. Russia used Iran as a tool to put pressure on the West and destabilize the region: ◾️ Iran supplied Russia with thousands of Shahed-136 attack drones and technology for their production on Russian territory under the name "Geran-2." ◾️ Iran supplied Russia with short-range ballistic missiles. The total value of contracts for the supply of missiles and drones at the beginning of 2023 was estimated at $1.75-3 billion. ◾️ In return, Russia supplied its own weapons to Iran, including air defense systems and aircraft, which, as we can see, did not help Tehran. ◾️ Russia helped Iran develop its nuclear program to increase instability in the region and strengthen the "anti-Western coalition." ◾️ Using its influence, Russia maintained its military bases in Syria and shared military expenses with Tehran. ◾️ Iran, which has been under sanctions for decades, helped Russia circumvent sanctions: the development of the North-South Transport Corridor through Iran allowed Russia to export goods bypassing European ports. ◾️ Iran helped Russia master methods of covert financial transactions and parallel imports. Russia's main objective now is destabilization in the region, prolonging the war, driving up oil prices, and diverting financial and military aid away from Ukraine. ‼️ It is likely that Russians helped Iran develop a plan for strikes against the Persian Gulf countries. It is only natural that Ukrainians are now being asked for help in defending against Iranian drones. Ukraine has unique experience in countering Shahed drones. And Ukraine knows very well what Russia is like, what methods it uses, and what its goals are. What finally needs to be understood about Russia is that it has never been a reliable partner! Its partnership is rhetorical. Russia pursues exclusively its own interests, setting up, deceiving, and abandoning its so-called allies and violating the terms of agreements and deals. Syria, Venezuela, and Iran are vivid examples of this. 📹: Russia-Iran drills/Radio Liberty

#WATCH | Delhi: Indian Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi says, "As for the drones, the drones we have seen are very small drones. They come with their lights on. They don't fly at very high altitudes, and they have been seen very infrequently. Around 6 drones were seen on the 10th January, and 2 to 3 were seen on the 11th and 12th January. These, I believe, were defensive drones, which were trying to see if any action was being taken against us. It's possible they also wanted to see if there were any gaps, any laxity in the Indian Army, any gaps through which they could send terrorists. So, I think they must have received a negative response. They must have seen that as of today, there is no such place, no such gap from where they can send them. But this is certain: we had a DGMO (Director General of Military Operations) talk today. This matter was discussed in that talk, and they were told that this is unacceptable to us, and please put a stop to it. This has been conveyed to them..."

Right now, on the streets of Munich and other cities, people are calling for support for freedom in Iran. We saw it. Ukraine does not share a border with Iran. We’ve never had a conflict of interest with the Iranian regime. But the Iranian Shahed drones they sold to Russia are killing our people and destroying our infrastructure. The Iranian regime has already done – and can still do – more harm than many other regimes could do in a century. And yet this regime still exists. And it hopes to survive everything – even this crisis. Today, the people of Iran expect from the world what we in Ukraine needed on February 24, when the Russian invasion began – unity, determination, and speed. Of course, speed. Speed in support. And regimes like the one in Iran must not be given time. When they have time, they only kill more. They must be stopped immediately. And this is exactly what should have happened with the Ayatollah – after all the wars his regime unleashed and all the lives it took – and with Putin as well: after the war in Georgia, after Syria, after 2014 and the occupation of Crimea.

Today I spoke with leaders of countries currently under attack from Iran – the President of the United Arab Emirates and the Amir of Qatar. We will continue this diplomatic engagement with the broader Middle East and Gulf region. Ukraine stands in solidarity with all those who are resisting the spread of war and violence. For decades, the Iranian regime has invested in destroying the lives of its neighbors and others wherever it could reach. It was on that very foundation that they became accomplices of Russia in the war against Ukraine. Every “shahed” drone in Ukrainian skies proves that the Iranian regime must be held accountable for its attempts to destroy lives and kill people. It is essential that those who defend life prevail in this confrontation.

Video 1. Jaish Fateh's Inghimasis storming the Artillery Base during the battle to break the siege of E. #Aleppo. The base had 150+ buildings, each requiring to be cleared one by one. See: It was divided into 3 sections: the first 2 were quickly seized, while the last one - the Technical College - resisted longer, as Regime kept sending reinforcements, incl. Hezbollah. The base was ultimately overrun by Rebels on 6th August, in the early afternoon. At that moment, Fatah Halab's Rebels captured the nearby Ramoussah district, effectively breaking the siege. Video 2. Drone footage showing the sprawling Artillery Base (2 km²) shortly after its capture by Rebels. Rebels seized 20+ armored vehicles and 10+ cannons, in addition to a large amount of weapons, ammunition and a Grad launcher. As the video shows, Russia didn't waste time and began bombing the base (see the cluster bomb bombardment at 3:38). It was the beginning of a 4-week, day and night, bombardment that would reduce the base to rubble.

Ukraine is increasingly turning to ground-based unmanned vehicles as part of its broader shift toward drone warfare. While aerial drones dominate much of the battlefield, ground drones are taking on tasks that once required soldiers to operate under direct fire. The video, filmed with the 7th Corps of Ukraine's Air Assault Forces, shows how these unmanned ground vehicles are being used to move through dangerous terrain, deliver supplies, and support frontline operations. Designed for conditions where human movement is extremely risky, the systems help reduce exposure to mines, artillery, and small-arms fire. The Kyiv Independent continues its front-line coverage in 2026, and we need your support now more than ever. Become part of our community via the link in bio.

The Ukrainian mistake that put an entire strategy into question Until the end of 2024, Ukrainian defenses using drones were very effective, slowing down not only the Russian advance but also inflicting significant casualties. During this period, the Russians heavily invested in drones, from factories to the development of fiber-optic drones, which were still produced in small quantities. By the end of 2024, a second Chinese restriction on the sale of components further complicated these transactions for both sides. Both industries were already manufacturing various components in small quantities, but still heavily dependent on Chinese imports. While the Russians expanded their intermediary networks to bypass restrictions and maintain Chinese imports, the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense decided to invest in local companies to produce fiber-optic cables. Essentially, all other components continued to be imported from China via intermediaries, but strangely, several Ukrainian companies started manufacturing low-quality cables and received government funding. The result was an unprecedented superiority of Russian drones on the battlefield, while Ukrainian fiber-optic drones were produced in much smaller numbers, with limited range and low-quality fibers that broke easily. This mistake of nationalizing such a sensitive component was initiated by the Ministry and not due to Chinese restrictions, since all other components continued to be imported through intermediaries. In my view, it was a bold strategy that ultimately failed, compromising the Ukrainian advantage until that moment. You either win the war or make money. It's hard to do both. It will be a major challenge for Ukraine to regain its front-line capacity as it previously was, facing a Russian production of 500,000 fiber-optic drones annually. This significant error weakened Ukrainian defense, which was already operating with low manpower and high desertion rates, but was still adjusting and maintaining the front through the hiring of mercenaries for many months. Given the scarcity of equipment on the front line, there is doubt whether lowering recruitment age will have the desired effect to sustain the front for a long period. It would also be necessary to resolve the issue with fiber-optic drones and for Ukraine to receive another batch of equipment from 2023, which I believe is unlikely. The situation involves multiple aspects of deterioration that have persisted for a long time, continuing to impact the AFU. While financial aid is being maintained, the absence of American support with weaponry is being felt as a crucial issue.

Given the scarcity of equipment on the front line, there is doubt whether lowering recruitment age will have the desired effect to sustain the front for a long period. It would also be necessary to resolve the issue with fiber-optic drones and for Ukraine to receive another batch of equipment from 2023, which I believe is unlikely. The situation involves multiple aspects of deterioration that have persisted for a long time, continuing to impact the AFU. While financial aid is being maintained, the absence of American support with weaponry is being felt as a crucial issue.

The video shows Russian propagandists outlining Russia’s plans to destroy Ukraine’s maritime infrastructure and "cut the country off from the sea." In November 2025, the number of Russian air attacks on Ukraine’s Black Sea ports nearly doubled compared to October. According to the Monitoring Group of the Black Sea Institute of Strategic Studies: Based on monitoring conducted from January to November 2025, the Russian armed forces carried out at least 152 missile and drone attacks of various types on the ports of Velyka Odesa, ports in southern Odesa region, and the region’s energy and industrial infrastructure. These included: 29 attacks in November, 16 in October, and 11 in September. Recorded among them: • At least 38 missile attacks of various types (November - 3; October - 2; September - 3); • At least 114 attacks using drones and decoy drones such as Shahed-136/131, Geran/Gerbera, etc. (November - 27; October - 13; September - 8); • At least 46 Iskander ballistic and cruise missiles were used (November - 3; October - 3; September - 6). November saw a sharp increase not only in the number of drone attacks, but also in the number of drones deployed in each strike. The number of attacks in November doubled compared to October (from 13 to 27). Double strikes within a single day (night-day, morning-evening, etc.) became systematic: nine days recorded two attacks in 24 hours, and one day recorded three. There were individual attacks involving more than 30, and in some cases over 40 drones. Thus, it can be estimated that in November alone, Russian forces used at least 300 drones in attacks on Odesa region. In total, no fewer than 1,200 drones of various types were used against the region from January to November 2025. From January to November 2025, 15 attacks on vessels in Odesa-region ports were recorded, damaging 28 vessels (27 civilian, 1 naval). Civilian fatalities were reported, and port infrastructure was damaged. Vessels damaged: • November - 11 (6 ships, 3 barges, 2 pontoons); • October - 3; • September - 0; • August - 5 (including 1 naval vessel); • July - 5; • June - 0. Russia dreams of "cutting Ukraine off from the sea." But they will not succeed.

🚨🇷🇺 NATO'S NIGHTMARE: RUSSIA UNVEILS SWARM DRONE KILLER SYSTEM Rostec has successfully tested a breakthrough swarm technology that lets ONE operator control up to 10 strike drones in perfect sync. Built on the Supercam platform with upgraded data links, these UAVs now automatically exchange target intel in real time and use neural nets to ID threats and assign roles. 🔸 Single operator commands 10 loitering munitions that hunt as an intelligent pack — massive leap in efficiency and manpower savings. 🔸 Drones barrage over the area in search mode; the first to detect a target instantly shares coordinates with every unit in the swarm. 🔸 Neural network auto-identifies threats, sets attack sequence, and designates one drone for objective control — operator only confirms the kill before the full group strikes. 🔸 Swarm specifically engineered to overwhelm enemy PVO and deliver concentrated fire on the most complex, hardened targets with guaranteed destruction. 🔸 Direct counter to recent expert warnings that Russia was falling behind in UAV development — now fast-tracking full swarm integration into its recon-strike network. What can NATO do to counter this?

‼️‼️🇺🇲 BIG | The USA for the first time shot down a fiber-optic drone The American company Epirus reported a significant breakthrough in the field of countering drones. Its microwave system "Leonidas" for the first time hit a drone with fiber-optic control - one of the most difficult targets for modern electronic warfare means. Previously, the complex had already hit a swarm of 49 drones, but the new test was particularly significant. In December 2025, at a closed test range of the US Army, the system was able to disable a fiber-optic UAV, depriving it of control and causing an uncontrolled fall. Fiber-optic drones, which are widely used today, including in the Ukrainian theater of operations, do not use radio control channels. The signal is transmitted via a thin fiber-optic cable, which makes such drones extremely difficult to detect and suppress. In a report by the US Army in 2024, such drones were called "one of the main threats to air defense systems and anti-drone warfare". The CEO of Epirus noted that the mass spread of fiber-optic UAVs has become a turning point in the evolution of unmanned warfare and has revealed a serious gap in anti-drone defense systems - a gap that "Leonidas" is designed to close. In 2025, Epirus received a contract for $43.5 million for the supply of two second-generation "Leonidas" systems. Its range of destruction is more than twice that of the first version; a 30% increase in power; there are built-in high-energy batteries; a reduction in dependence on external power supply. The system can be installed on: Stryker 8×8 armored vehicles, light tactical vehicles, other mobile platforms. See the latest updates with us: Visioner

Trump Says White House Knows What Drones Are As White House, FBI, DHS Insist Nothing Unusual Afoot Plus: Exclusive to Public, the recording of the White House’s drone briefing for angry New Jersey mayors Since November 18th, the military, city mayors, and citizens have been reporting widespread drone flying over military bases in New Jersey and Ohio and over homes in New Jersey and other states. This morning, a reporter asked President-elect Donald Trump about the drones. “The government knows what is happening,” said Trump. “And for some reason they don't want to comment. And I think they'd be better off saying what it is. Our military knows. Our president knows. And for some reason, they want to keep people in suspense. I can't imagine it's the enemy because if it were the enemy, even if they were late, they'd blast it. Something strange is going on.” A few hours later, representatives from the FBI, the White House, the Department of Homeland Security, and the Federal Aviation Administration all said nothing unusual was going on. “These sightings include a combination of lawful commercial drones, hobbyist drones, and law enforcement drones as well, as well as other aircraft, helicopters, and other images including lights mistakenly reported as drones,” said Jennifer Daskal of DHS. The mayors responded angrily. “This has been going on since November 8th,” said Mayor Mark Taylor of Florham Park. “You can say these are small aircraft. You can say these are manned. They're not. So, I think if anyone was to take away from this that, um, the drones aren't flying, they also must believe that the border is closed.” Public obtained the entire conference call between the mayors, the White House, the FBI, DHS, and the FAA, which ran from around p.m. ET today to just before pm ET. One mayor said he had one drone over his house. “This is certainly not normal,” said Mayor Sam Joshi of Edison. “It's an abnormal amount of drones and the sizes of them are just huge. I had two drones that were the size of vehicles. A couple hundred mayors are all waving a flag saying, ‘This is a big deal.’” Said Mayor Taylor, “I just don't want to hear any longer that we don't know where they're coming from because you should know that." Last week, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said, " We have not seen drones penetrate restricted airspace," and Pentagon Spokesman John Kirby said, "There are no reported or confirmed drone sightings in any restricted airspace.” Kirby stressed the point twice. “There has been no evidence of any of this activity in or near restricted spaces. But US officials have officially reported drones at Langley, Edwards, Earle, and many other military and nuclear sites for years, including in New Jersey recently. The New York Post reported that drones flew over Picatinny Arsenal, a sensitive US military installation “that has been helping develop robotic drones that can counter weapons of mass destruction.” On Friday, drones forced the Wright-Patterson Air Force base in Ohio to shut down air traffic. “Most of the New Jersey drone sightings were misidentified,” noted the War Zone, which broke the story, “so it is notable that the ones spotted over Wright-Patterson, as with the other U.S. military installations, were seen by trained observers that are equipped with high-end gear to maintain security and to discriminate between friend and foe.” Some Democrats in Congress joined Trump and the mayors in demanding more information. “The public has a right to know what is flying over their neighborhoods and in their communities,” said Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA). “Whether it’s drones or planes, getting people information is important for transparency and national security.” Please subscribe now to support Public’s award-winning investigative journalism and to listen to and read the transcript of the entire conference call between the White House, DHS, FBI, FAA, and the mayors of New Jersey.
