#Ukraine: Ukrainian forces are using drones made out of cardboard and rubber bands to fight the #Russian Army. At least 100 of these cheap drones, produced by an #Australian company SYPAQ, are being supplied to Ukraine monthly in flatpack form.#UkraineRussianWar #Russia #Ukraina

Roughly 20 minutes ago, NASA's Suomi NPP satellite crested the horizon over southwestern Russia, its VIIRS camera detecting a massive IR signature coming from a Russian airbase.

That signature was Morozovsk Airbase's aircraft and rearming revetments burning.

#Ukraine: Interesting- It seems that the 🇨🇳 #Chinese Norinco CS/LM3 HMG in 12.7x99mm caliber is in the service of the 🇺🇦 #Ukrainian army.

The Norinco CS/LM3 HMG in 12.7x99mm caliber is an export version of the Chinese W85 12.7x108mm HMG.

Colt M5s appear to be proliferating in #Ukraine at the moment. Two sightings of brand new rifles seen in imagery this week. Suspect these are part of the Canadian order placed with CZ-Colt Group.
